1.2 User and Product Safety

 Do not stare into the laser or LED beam directly or shine it into eyes.

 Never use strong pressure onto the screen or subject it to severe impact, as the LCD panel could become cracked and

possibility cause personal injury. If the LCD panel is broken, never touch the liquid inside because the liquid irritates the
skin.

 Although the Device has passed the test of IP65 standard for water and dust resistance, avoid prolonged exposure to rain

or other concentrated moisture. Such condition exceeds the IP65 standard, and could result in water or other contaminants
entering into the Device.

 Use only the original approved AC Adapter with the Device. Use of an unapproved AC Adapter could result in electrical

problems, or even cause a fire or electrical shock to the user.

 Do not disassemble the Device. Servicing should be done by supplier only. I f the Device or a ccessories gets damaged due

to wrong handling or unauthorized repair, warranty is void. In case the warranty seals are broken, warranty is void too.

 Make regularly back-up of all important data.

6

 Under no circumstance will supplier be liable for any direct, indirect, consequential or incidental damages baring out of the

use or inability to use the hardware and software and/or any data loss, even if supplier has been informed about the pos­sibility of such damages.

 LASER RADIATION DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM CLASS 2 LASER PRODUCT

1.3 Battery Safety

Lithium-ion battery packs might get hot, explode, ignite and/or cause serious injury if exploded by abusive using. Please follow the
safety warnings listed as below:

 Do not throw the battery pack in fire. Do not expose the battery to high temperatures.

 Do not connect the positive battery pack with negative battery pack to each other with any metal object (like wire).

 Do not carry or store battery pack together with metal objects.

 Do not pierce the battery pack with nails or drills, strike the battery pack with a hammer, step on the battery pack or

otherwise expose it to strong impacts, shocks or excessive force.

 Do not solder onto the battery pack.

 Do not expose battery pack to liquid or allow the battery contacts to get wet.

 Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack. The battery pack contains safety and protection measures, which, if

damaged, may cause the battery pack to generate heat, explode or ignite.

 Do not discharge the battery pack using any device except for the specif i ed device. When it is used in devices other than

the specified devices, the battery pack can be damaged or its life expectancy reduced. If the device causes any abnormal
current to flow, it may cause the battery pack to become hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury.

 In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into one’s eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water and imme-

diately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.

2.5.6 Setting Up Wireless LAN

The Summit Client Utility (SCU) is an application designed for end users and administrators of mobile devices that use a Summit
radio module. Using SCU, an end user can:

 Disable the radio (turn it off) and enable the radio (turn it on)
 View the contents of configuration profiles, or profiles, each of which houses the RF, security, and other settings for the

radio

 Select the profile to be used to connect to a WLAN
 View global settings, which apply to every profile
 View status information on the radio, the access point (AP) or WLAN router to which it is connected, and the RF connection

or link between the two devices

 To troubleshoot a connection or performance issue, view in-depth diagnostic information on the connection and the radio,

and perform various troubleshooting and diagnostic tests

After completing an administrator login to the utility, a user can perform these additional tasks:

 Create, rename, edit, and delete profiles
 Alter global settings, which apply to every profile

SCU provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for access to all of its functions. Access to these functions also is available through
an application programming interface (API), which an application programm er can use to enable another utility to m anage the
radio.

To initialize SCU:

 From the Start menu, select Programs
 Select the directory called Summit
 Inside the Summit directory are two items: a directory for the storage of security certificates and an SCU icon. To run SCU,

double-click the SCU icon

SCU has five tabs: Main, Profile, Status, and Diags, and Global. Each tab is described in more detail in this section.

29

Main Tab

Figure -17 Main Tab

 Enable/Disable Radio: When the radio is enabled, selecting this button disables it; when the radio is disabled, selecting

this button enables it.

 Active Profile: You can view the name of the active profile and, using the selection list, select a different profile.
 Status: Indicates the radio’s status.
 Radio Type: Indicates the type of radio in the device. “ABG” means a Summit radio that supports 802.11a, 802.11b and

802.11g.

 Regulatory Domain: Indicates the regulatory domain or domains for w hich the radio is configured “Worldwide” means that

the radio can be used in any domain. The domain cannot be configured by an administrator or user.

 Auto Profile: enables you to activate or deactivate automatic profile selection. Tap List and use the dialog box to select a

created profile.

 Driver: Indicates the version of the device driver that is running on the device.
 SCU: Indicates the version of SCU that is running on the device.
 About SCU: When tapped, supplies information on SCU that on a Windows application normally would appear under

Help/About.

Profile Tab

Profile settings are radio and security settings that are stored in the registry as part of a configuration profile. When a profile is
selected as the active profile on the Main tab, the settings for that profile become active. An administrator can define up to 20
profiles, edit them, and delete them on the Profile tab in SCU. Profile changes made on the tab are saved to the profile only
when the Commit button is pressed.

Unless it is modified, the Default profile does not specify an SSID, EAP type, or method of encryption. If the Default profile is the
active profile, then the radio will associate only to an access point that broadcasts its SSID and requires no EAP type and no
encryption.

30

Figure -18 Profile Tab

 Edit Profile: This is used to select the profile to be viewed or, if you are an administrator, edited.
 Actions: Four actions are available, with the first three available only to an administrator:

- New: Create a new profile with default settings and give it a unique name (and then change settings using other
selections on the tab).

-Rename: Give the profile a new name, one that is not assigned to another profile

- Delete: Delete the profile, provided that it is not t he active profile.

- Scan: Open a window that lists access points that are broadcasting their SSIDs. Each ti me you tap the Refresh button,

you view an updated list of APs, with each row showing an AP’s SSID, its received signal strength indication (RSSI),
and whether or not data encryption is in use (true or false). You can sort the list by clicking on the column headers. If
you are authorized as an administrator, select an SSID in the list, and tap Commit, you return to the Profile tab to
create a profile for that SSID.

 Radio: Radio attribut es in the list box can be selected individually. When an attribute is selected, the current setting or an

appropriate selection box with the current setting highlighted appears on the right.

 Security: Values for the two primary security attributes, EAP type and encryption type, are displayed in separate

dropdown lists, with the current values highlighted. When you as an administrator select an EAP type, the Credentials
button appears; when you tap it, a dialog box appears that enables you to define authentication credentials for that EAP
type. When you as an administrator select an encryption type that requires the definition of WEP keys or a pre-shared key,
the PSKs/WEP Keys button appears; when you tap it, a dialog box appears that enables you to define WEP keys or a PSK.

 Commit: To ensure that changes to profile settings made on the tab are saved in the profile, you must tap the Commit

button.

To cause a Summit radio to connect to a typical business WLAN, you must select a profile that specifies the SSID, EAP type, and
encryption type supported by the WLAN:

 SSID: This is the name or identification of the WLAN.
 EAP type: This is the protocol used to authenticate the device and its user if the WLAN uses the Enterprise version of Wi-Fi

Protected Access (WPA) and WPA2. SCU supports five EAP types: PEAP with EAP-MSCHAP (PEAP-MSCHAP), PEAP
