The CLS-920i Cargo Lift Scale offers an optional Lantronix® WiP o r t (WLAN - Wireless Local Area Network)
wireless networking device which is installed inside the 920i indicator. This option can be used for real-time data
transmission to warehouse management systems. The Windows
®
based configuration software, DeviceInstaller is
required for installation and setup. It is available on the CD that comes with the kit. The WLAN option can be
factory installed upon request when purchasing the CLS-920i Cargo Lift scale or can be purchased separately and
installed on site.
The wireless LAN option kit contains the following:
• Pluggable wireless board (PN 97789)
• Antenna (PN 98357)
• CD containing Lantronix information (PN 72763)
The following photo shows the WLAN ca

Wireless Configuration via Serial Mode
Connect a cable into the J2
connector of the installed
WLAN option to a PC
Wiring is as follows:
TxD = J2, Pin 1
RxD = J2, Pin 2
Gnd = J2, Pin 3 or 4
The CLS-920i must configure so that it can communicate on the network. WiPort (WLAN) is configurable using a
PC and a terminal program (like Windows XP Hyperterminal) to access the device serial port locally.
To configure the WiPort (WLAN option), connect a serial cable from the J
option card to a PC.
