Summit Wireless Network Configuration
The Summit client device is a Summit 802.11a/b/g/n radio, capable of 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n data rates. The
radio can be configured for no encryption, WEP encryption or WPA security.
Important Notes
It is important that all dates are correct on the Thor VM2 and host computers when using any type of certificate. Cer-
tificates are date sensitive and if the date is not correct authentication will fail.
It may be necessary to upgrade radio software in order to use certain Summit Client Utility (SCU) features. Contact
Technical Assistance
When using the 802.11a radio, the U-NII 1 band is the preferred band for indoor operation. For regulatory domains
in which the U-NII 3 band is allowed, the following channels are supported: 149, 153, 157 and 161. The AP must be
configured accordingly.
After making any changes to the wireless configuration, restart the Thor VM2.

Summit Tray Icon
The Summit tray icon is not shown when the Thor VM2 is running Windows Embedded Standard 2009, Windows
Embedded 7 or Windows 7 Professional.
