Overview
National Instruments WAP-37x1 wireless access points (WAPs) add
wireless connectivity to all Ethernet-based programmable automation
controllers (PACs) such as NI CompactRIO and Compact FieldPoint.
You can convert your PACs to wireless systems to reduce wiring costs or
access remote locations and use the NI LabVIEW graphical development
environment with both of these WAPs.
An NI WAP-37x1 connects wireless devices to a wired network –
it has an IP address so other wireless clients can access the device.
A WAP-37x1 can also serve as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) server and configure other WAP-37x1 devices as wireless clients.
A single WAP-37x1 typically can support up to 30 client devices, with the
range depending on the wireless antennae selection. A WAP-37x1 also
serves as a wireless bridge and allows two devices to talk to each other.
The NI WAP-3701 supports the IEEE 802.11 North American 2.4 GHz
band with channels from 1 to 11, and the NI WAP-3711 supports 2.4 GHz
international frequency bands with channels 1 to 13.
