3.2 Front-Panel Operation
The ES520 Mesh Point front panel is equipped with three,
recessed buttons: two switches (labeled
SW1 and SW2) and a
Reset button.
Figure 3.2. ES520 Front-Panel Buttons
3.2.1 Mode Selection from the Front Panel
The front-panel switches can be used to toggle RF (Radio
Frequency) Kill mode on and off, as well as to turn the Mesh
Point’s front-panel LEDs off and on (
Blackout Mode, Enabled/
Disabled).
Each of these Mesh Point settings has only two possible
values. Configuring them through the front-panel switches
toggles the setting from its current value to the alternate value.
3.2.1.1 Togging the RF Kill Mode setting
NOTE: You can
also change the RF
Kill mode setting in the
Mesh Point GUI (see the
Software GUI Guide).
The SW1 button toggles the Mesh Point’s RF Kill mode to turn
both internal radios on and off.
The default RF Kill mode setting is
Disabled, in which state the
Mesh Point receives and transmits radio frequency signals
normally.
