into the screen section and all persons. You are not allowed to disable
“sleep (standby) mode” for the power management function, if you cannot
maintain the sufficient antenna separation (at least 20 cm) in any case the
LCD is left opened or closed.
For the location of the antenna, see the ″Location of the UltraConnect wireless
antennas″section in Access Help.
Note: The transmission diversity function is implemented for this product.
For WLAN card (Model AR5BHB63-L) using Main and Auxiliary antennas for
transmission in the IEEE 802.11 b/g transmission mode, radio frequency
energy is not emitted simultaneously from both Main and Auxiliary antennas.
One of the antennas is selected automatically or manually (by users) to have
good quality of radiocommunication (transmission diversity function). For the
WLAN card (Model: 533AN_MMW )in the MIMO (Multiple In Multiple Out)
transmission mode, multiple antennas (Main, Auxiliary, and Third) can
transmit radio frequency energy simultaneously. For WLAN card (Model:
512AN_MMW) in the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g or MIMO (Multiple In Multiple Out
)transmission mode, the radio frequency energy is emitted from Main
antenna.
