Introducing InfoWave
Congratulations on purchasing InfoWave! You have made the right decision to bring the
power of wireless technology into your hands, and you will soon discover the many
delightful advantages and the wonderful benefits made possible through the magic of
wireless connectivity.
This chapter will introduce you to InfoWave and describe some of the advantages and
possible uses of your new product.
What is InfoWave?
InfoWave is a low-cost solution for such applications as cable replacement, wireless
home networking, and remote data collection and control. Using the digital spread-
spectrum technology, InfoWave is a plug-and-play RS-232 cable replacement -- just
connect it to a serial port and it provides transparent wireless connectivity. InfoWave
offers reliable and secure communications between computers or data devices at
distances of up to 350 feet indoors and 1000 feet outdoors.
PC to PC Networking (Model: 9209/9211/9213/24211/24213)
By simply connecting an InfoWave unit to each computer's serial port, the two InfoWave
units establish a point-to-point connection between two computers. You can download
and install the InfoWave Networking Software from InnoMedia's web site or use other
software applications such as Hyper Terminal and pcANYWHERETM.
The InfoWave Networking Software turns two computers into a mini-network. Now,
the peripherals and files of the two computers can allows two users to print with the same
printer, fax or email with same modem, exchange files, and play games with each other.
Moreover, both users can simultaneously and independently surf the Web using the same
phone line and the same Internet Service Provider account. Users can download the
InfoWave Networking software from our Web site http://www.innomedia.com/wireless/.
PC to Peripheral Connection (Model: 9210/9212/9214/24212/24214)
Two InfoWave units can provide a point-to-point communication between a PC and a
data communication device like an external V.90 modem without any software
installation.
PC to Multiple Devices Communication (9208/9218/9228/24218/24228)
For point-to-multipoint applications, one InfoWave unit can serve as a base station to poll
many remote stations. For example, one computer can control multiple mobile robots by
using the InfoWave units. Using a simple InfoWave command set, users can easily
integrate the InfoWave into their remote data collection and control applications.

The DTE-DCE switch should be set to the right position as shown below and the DTE
indicator should be off. If the switch is set to DTE (left) position, the unit is in the
synchronization mode and the PWR indicator will be flashing. Please refer to the
synchronization section.

Installing the Hardware
The steps below show you how to connect an InfoWave unit to a computer.
1. Power off the computer.
2. Take one serial cable out of the InfoWave kit. Connect one end of the serial cable to
the 9-pin male communications (COM) port on your computer. If your computer has
a 25-pin COM port, use the 9-to-25-pin adapter included in the package.
3. Connect the other end of the serial port to the 9-pin female COM port on the back of
the InfoWave unit.
4. Plug the power supply pack into the +5V DC power input in the back of your
InfoWave unit.
Hardware installation is now completed on one computer. Remember to perform the
entire procedure for the other computer to be networked. The following picture shows the
detailed information about how to complete the hardware installation.
Using the Power Adapter Cables
One PS/2 power adapter cable is included in the InfoWave kit. The power adapter cable
allows you to power up the InfoWave unit from a desktop or notebook PC instead of
using the AC/DC power adapter. To use the cable, do the following:
1. Connect one end to the InfoWave DC power supply, and connect the other end of the
cable to a PS/2 pass-through connector.
The InnoMedia Wireless Group http://www.innomedia.com/wireless/ 10
2. Remove either the PS/2 mouse or keyboard connector first, then plug in the PS/2
pass-through connector. Finally, plug in the PS/2 mouse or keyboard connector on top
of the PS/2 pass-through connector.
Changing the InfoWave Baud Rate
The default baud rate of the InfoWave is 115.2 Kbps. A user can change the baud by
doing the following steps. However, please notice that you only can change the baud of
DCE mode InfoWave by issuing commands. For DTE mode InfoWave, please contact
our technical support to get a different firmware you needed.
1. Power on the InfoWave unit and connect it to one of the RS-232 ports.
2. Use the Microsoft Hyper Terminal application by doing
Start à Programs à Accessories à Communications à Hyper Terminal
3. Enter an escape sequence "|||" <CR> and a WMBx <CR>, where <CR> is the
"Carriage Return" or "Enter". You need to consecutively and quickly enter the three
"|" and then hit the <CR>. The timing between the keystrokes should be less than 0.5
second. After seeing the InfoWave respond with an "0" or "OK", you can then type in
the WMBx to set the baud rate,
Where x = 1 for 115.2 Kbps,
x = 2 for 57.6 Kbps,
x = 3 for 38.4 Kbps,
x = 4 for 19.2 Kbps,
x = 5 for 9.6 Kbps.
4. Power off the unit and then power it back on.
5. Repeat the step 1 to 4 for the second InfoWave unit.
Synchronize Your InfoWave Units
If two InfoWave units are configured for replacing an RS-232 cable, the unique
identification code of this pair is pre-set during the manufacturing process. A
synchronization step is needed when two units fail to connect to each other due to a new
firmware upgrade or another pair of InfoWave operating in the close proximity.
The synchronization steps are:
1.) Turn off the power of each unit by pressing the power switch.
The InnoMedia Wireless Group http://www.innomedia.com/wireless/ 11
2.) If it is a DCE InfoWave unit, which connects to a computer, slide the switch
to DTE side, and if it is a DTE InfoWave unit, which connects to a modem,
slide the switch to DCE side. Please note that you need to unplug the RS-232
cable during the synchronization procedures.
3.) Turn on the power of each InfoWave unit by pressing the power switch again.
4.) After each unit's PWR LED has slowly blinked 3 times and then begun to
flash faster, slide the switch back to the original position.
5.) The PWR LED will now slowly blink 3 times and then light up solid.
After these steps are completed, the two InfoWave units should be able to operate
flawlessly. If you still encounter any difficulties, please contact InnoMedia's technical
support.
The InnoMedia Wireless Group http://www.innomedia.com/wireless/ 12
Configuring Your Computer's Serial Port
InfoWave uses hardware flow control to ensure reliable data transmission. Your PC
COM port needs to be configured as shown below. To configure the serial port, do the
following:
1. At Windows 95 and 98 desktop area, issue the command sequences:
Start àSettings à Control Panel à System à Device Manager à Ports à COM1
or COM2
All the parameters should be set as shown in the above figure except the "Bits per second
" box. Choose the correct baud rate that matches your InfoWave setting.
The InnoMedia Wireless Group http://www.innomedia.com/wireless/ 13
Changing Your Cable Wiring to Bypass InfoWave Hardware Flow Control
For a device does not support hardware flow control, special cable wiring is needed to
bypass the hardware flow control. Pin 4, 6, and 7 of the InfoWave female connector need
to be connected together. The following figure and table show the female connector
layout and pin assignment respectively. Note that once the hardware flow control is
disabled, the user needs to exercise caution to prevent data overrun that can result in loss
of data packets.
Pin No. Pin Name I/O
(DCE) I/O
(DTE) Comments
1/DCD OIIn DCE mode, when the radio link is established,
DCD is asserted. When the link is torn down,
DCD becomes de-asserted.
2RXD OI
3TXD IO
4/DTR IOIn DCE mode, DTR must be asserted before data
can be sent out normally.
5GND - -
6DSR OI
7/RTS IOHardware flow control signal.
8/CTS OIHardware flow control signal.
9/RI OI
For device that does not support hardware flow control, Pin 4, 6, and 7 of the InfoWave
female connector need to be connected together.
