14221-1800-2000, Rev. M APPENDIX A WI-FI PROGRAMMING CAUTION NOTE NOTE A.1 Due to numerous issues with discovering and programming radios connected to Enterprise Wireless networks, it is strongly suggested that a single Access Point Wireless network be used for programming radios with RPM2. See Section A.7 for more information. These instructions assume the user has a basic familiarity with Wireless (Wi-Fi) networks, their configuration, and how to connect devices.
14221-1800-2000, Rev. M A.3 CONFIGURE THE PERSONALITY For a radio to be programmed over Wi-Fi, the active personality on the radio must be configured for connecting with the values that were set in Section A.2. The following steps detail how to configure an existing radio personality. 1. In the personality, navigate to OPTIONS → Network Configuration. Figure A-1: Options → Network Configuration 2. Under the Wi-Fi Configuration section, set the Encryption Type, Network (SSID), and Network Password.
14221-1800-2000, Rev. M A.4 CONFIGURE THE RPM2 APPLICATION To ensure that RPM2 can discover radios over Wi-Fi, ensure that the Enable Wi-Fi checkbox is checked on the RPM2 Preferences screen as shown in Figure A-4. This checkbox is unchecked by default. Figure A-4: Enable Wi-Fi in RPM2 Also, as shown in Figure A-4, the Service Name must be updated to reference the value in the active personalities for the radios you need to discover. See #3 in Section A.3 and Section A.8.2 for more information.
14221-1800-2000, Rev. M Figure A-5: Enable Wi-Fi Programming Mode on Radio Refer to Section 5.37.2 for Wi-Fi Client selection information. NOTE A.6 DISCOVERY AND PROGRAMMING IN THE RPM2 APPLICATION 1. Start RPM2. 2. Disconnect the radio from the programming cable. 3. Select the Radio tab and click the Wi-Fi connection button . 4.
14221-1800-2000, Rev. M 5. Select a radio or radios and perform the desired action. Only Read Personality, Write Personality, and Load Code are supported over Wi-Fi. See the table below for the supported combinations.
14221-1800-2000, Rev. M If the radio was not discovered in RPM2 but an IP address is displayed on the radio screen as seen in Figure A-5, this may mean that the Multicast (mDNS) messages are not making it through the Access Point. Consult the Access Point’s manual and make sure that those messages are not being filtered out. A.8.
