2 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing your WX-1500 Series 11Mbps Wireless LAN Access Point. This manual will assist you with the
installation procedure for WX-1500SB, WX-1500EN, WX-1520SB, and WX-1520EN models
The package you have received should contain the following items:
•User manual
•Access Point
•Power adapter
•Diskette containing APManager Software
Note: if anything is missing, please contact your vendor
A wireless LAN is normally used in a predefined environment. In such a network, Access Points are mounted at assigned
places, each covering its own area in which wireless nodes can operate. These Access Points are connected to a wired network
to communicate with each other and with servers and clients on that network.
The WX-1500SB and WX-1520SB Access Point can be connected to a 10 Mbps Ethernet network through a RJ45 (UTP)
connector, while the WX-1500EN and the WX-1520EN support 10/100 base Ethernet Interface.

3 Installation
1. Mount the Access Point firmly to the wall on the position that is determined during the site survey. A drill model is supplied
as a separate sheet with this manual.
2. Make sure the antennas are in a vertical position (if not, rotate over 90 degrees).
3. Insert the power connector.
4. Attach the UTP Ethernet cable to the Access Point.
5. Switch on the Access Point.
At the front of the Access Point you will see three LEDs.
If all goes well, the middle LED (power) is green and the leftmost (WLAN) and rightmost (wired network) LEDs flash whenever
there is traffic on the respective networks which is at least ten times per second for the wireless LAN because of so-called
‘beacons’.
The Access Point automatically selects the medium attached. When the cable network is detected, the network LED will turn
yellow.
You can reset the Access Point’s settings to factory defaults by pushing a paperclip in the little hole next to the power switch.
The sequence of the ACT is on, and keep holding until the LED is being turned off.
When you push a paperclip in the reset hole while the Access Point is switched on, only the lock set by APManager (Par 4.5) is
deactivated.

4 APManager Features
APManager provides a consistent view of the Wireless network. The systems administrator can use APManager to control a
large number of Access Points from a single location. The Access Points are remotely updated via the SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol).
Among the supported features are:
•Adding and removing Access Points
•Restricting access to the Wireless network
•Managing data protection options such as IEEE 802.11b WEP
•Assigning radio channels for optimal cell management
•Grouping the wireless network into multiple WLANs with individual access control and security options
•Programming an Access Point with a specified IP address
•Setting the SNMP Write Community string
•Storing the Access Point configurations on disk
•Verifying the status of all Access Points in the network
