I

CE Mark Warning

This is a Class B product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

Energy Saving Note of the Device

This power required device does not support Standby mode operation.

For energy saving, please remove the DC-plug to disconnect the device from the power circuit. Without remove the DC-plug, the device still consuming power from the power circuit. In the view of Saving the Energy and reduce the unnecessary power consuming, it is strongly suggested to remove the DC-plug for the device if this device is not intended to be active.

R&TTE Compliance Statement

This equipment complies with all the requirements of DIRECTIVE 1999/5/CE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunication terminal Equipment and the mutual recognition of their conformity (R&TTE).

The R&TTE Directive repeals and replaces in the directive 98/13/EEC (Telecommunications Terminal Equipment and Satellite Earth Station Equipment) As of April 8, 2000.

Safety

This equipment is designed with the utmost care for the safety of those who install and use it. However, special attention must be paid to the dangers of electric shock and static electricity when working with electrical equipment. All guidelines of this and of the computer manufacture must therefore be allowed at all times to ensure the safe use of the equipment.

WEEE regulation

To avoid the potential effects on the environment and human health as a result of the presence of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, end users of electrical and electronic equipment should understand the meaning of the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. Do not dispose of WEEE as unsorted municipal waste and have to collect such WEEE separately.

Perfect Solution for Outdoor Environment

The WNAP-7320 is perfectly suitable in outdoor environments and exposed locations. By designing with IP55 and Outdoor UV Stabilized Enclosure, the WNAP-7320 can perform normally under rigorous weather conditions including heavy rain, wind and snow. Moreover, the WNAP-7320 is rated to operate at the temperature from -30 to 75 Degree C; thus it can operate more stably than general outdoor equipments. It is the best way using the WNAP-7320 to build outdoor wireless access applications between buildings on campuses, business, rural areas and etc.

Flexible Deployment with PoE Feature

With the proprietary Power over Ethernet (PoE) design, the WNAP-7320 can be easily applied in the areas where power outlets are not available. It thus reduces the needs of extra cables and dedicated electrical outlets on the wall, ceiling or any other places where are difficult to reach. It enables the wireless LAN deployment becomes more flexible and worries free from the power outlet locations. It is the best way using the WNAP-7320 to build outdoor wireless access applications between buildings on campuses, business, rural areas and etc.

Easy Installation & Management

With user-friendly Web UI and step by step Setup Wizard, the WNAP-7320 is easier to install, even for users who never experience setting up a wireless network. Furthermore, with SNMP-Based management interface, the WNAP-7320 is convenient to be managed and configured remotely.

3.1.2Safety Precautions

1.To keep you safe and install the hardware properly, please read and follow these safety precautions.

2.If you are installing WNAP-7320 for the first time, for your safety as well as others’, please seek assistance from a professional installer who has received safety training on the hazards involved.

3.Keep safety as well as performance in mind when selecting your installation site, especially where there are electric power and phone lines.

4.When installing WNAP-7320, please note the following things:

Do not use a metal ladder;

Do not work on a wet or windy day;

Wear shoes with rubber soles and heels, rubber gloves, long sleeved shirt or jacket.

5.When the system is operational, avoid standing directly in front of it. Strong RF fields are present when the transmitter is on.

3.2Installation Precautions

Users MUST use a proper and well-installed surge arrestor and grounding kit with WNAP-7320; otherwise, a random lightening could easily cause fatal damage to WNAP-7320. EMD (Lightning)

DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

Users MUST use the “Power cord & PoE Injector” shipped in the box with the WNAP-7320. Use of other options will cause damage to the WNAP-7320.

!OUTDOOR INSTALLATION WARNING

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:

LIVES MAY BE AT RISK! Carefully observe these instructions and any special instructions that are included with the

equipment you are installing.

CONTACTING POWER LINES CAN BE LETHAL. Make sure no power lines are anywhere where possible contact can be made. Antennas, masts, towers, guy wires or cables may lean or fall and contact these limes. People may be injured or killed if they are touching or holding any part of equipment when it contacts electric lines. Make sure there is NO possibility that equipment or personnel can come in contact directly or indirectly with power lines.

Assume all overhead lines are power lines.

The horizontal distance from a tower, mast or antenna to the nearest power line should be at least twice the total length of the mast/antenna combination. This will ensure that the mast will not contact power if it falls either during installation or later.

TO AVOID FALLING, USE SAFE PROCEDURES WHEN WORKING AT HEIGHTS ABOVE GROUND.

Select equipment locations that will allow safe, simple equipment installation.

Don’t work alone. A friend or co-worker can save your life if an accident happens.

Use approved non-conducting lasers and other safety equipment. Make sure all equipment is in good repair.

If a tower or mast begins falling, don’t attempt to catch it. Stand back and let it fall.

If anything such as a wire or mast does come in contact with a power line, DON’T TOUCH IT OR ATTEMPT TO MOVE IT. Instead, save your life by calling the power company.

Don’t attempt to erect antennas or towers on windy days.

MAKE SURE ALL TOWERS AND MASTS ARE SECURELY GROUNDED, AND ELECTRICAL CABLES CONNECTED TO

ANTENNAS HAVE LIGHTNING ARRESTORS. This will help prevent fire damage or human injury in case of lightning, static

build-up, or short circuit within equipment connected to the antenna.

The base of the antenna mast or tower must be connected directly to the building protective ground or to one or more approved grounding rods, using 1 OAWG ground wire and corrosion-resistant connectors.

Refer to the National Electrical Code for grounding details.

IF A PERSON COMES IN CONTACT WITH ELECTRICAL POWER, AND CANNOT MOVE:

DON’T TOUCH THAT PERSON, OR YOU MAY BE ELECTROCUTED.

Use a non-conductive dry board, stick or rope to push or drag them so they no longer are in contact with electrical power.

Once they are no longer contacting electrical power, administer CPR if you are certified, and make sure that emergency

medical aid has been requested.

Chapter 4. Quick Installation Guide

This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your Wireless AP using Easy Setup within minutes.

A computer with wired Ethernet connection to the Wireless AP is required for the first-time configuration.

4.1 Manual Network Setup - TCP/IP Configuration

The default IP address of the WNAP-7320 is 192.168.1.1. And the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be changed as you desire. In this guide, we use all the default values for description.

Connect the WNAP-7320 with your PC by an Ethernet cable plugging in LAN port of PoE injector in one side and in LAN port of PC in the other side. Please power on the WNAP-7320 by PoE from PoE injector or PoE switch.

In the following sections, we’ll introduce how to install and configure the TCP/IP correctly in Windows XP. And the procedures in other operating systems are similar. First, make sure your Ethernet Adapter is working, and refer to the Ethernet adapter’s manual if needed.

4.1.1 Configure the IP Address Manually

Summary:

Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC.

Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is any number from 2 to 254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (The AP's default IP address)

1Select Use the following IP address radio button.

2If the AP's LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1, enter IP address 192.168.1.x (x is from 2 to 254), and Subnet mask 255.255.255.0.

3Select Use the following DNS server addresses radio button. In the Preferred DNS Server field, you can enter the DNS server IP address which has been provided by your ISP
