1 Introduction
1.1 The EWB100
The EWB100 is a compact Voice over wireless LAN (VoWLAN) communications
device designed to operate throughout the wireless local area network of an
enterprise environment. The EWB 100 provides Push-to-Talk style
communications, similar to any normal Push-to-Talk radio. EWB100 badges
enable instant employee accessibility through a simultaneous call to a group of
workers and a person-to-person reply call from a group member. They can
communicate with other Motorola mobile computers and enterprise devices
communicating over Wi-Fi.
The EWB 100 can be clipped onto clothing, worn on a lanyard, or slipped inside
a pocket and can be deployed either as a personal or shared device. In
environments where workers change shifts daily, an employee can select any
available badge.
1.2 This Document
This document is intended for those who select, configure, deploy, and support
the EWB100 device. It is not directed at those who are the end users of it. The
EWB100 Quick Start Guide is intended for such users.
This document describes the capabilities of the EWB100 and how the device can
be configured to take advantage of those capabilities. While the EWB100 is
typically used for its “Walkie talkie” like functions it is capable of much more and
this document describes those capabilities.
This document also describes how the device can be deployed and updated over
time. It does not describe the “Deployment Application” but instead describes
how many of the same functions can be achieved with existing network software
packages.
Also included in this document is a description of the mechanisms that are
available to diagnose and fix problems that may arise during deployment or in an
installation. The EWB100 has a number of powerful mechanisms that will allow
on-site or remote maintenance.
Finally this document will describe enough of the internal architecture so as to
make the process of configuring, optimizing, and supporting the device an easier
task.

EWB100 Usage and Deployment Guide Rev 1.13

2 EWB100 User Overview
2.1 The Physical Device
The image below shows the EWB100 with the important user elements identified
2.2 The User Interface
The user interface of the EWB100 is very simple, consisting of 5 buttons,a
tricolor LED, a microphone, and a speaker. There are also optional headsetsthat
can substitute for the microphone and/or speaker. There is not a screen of any
type. This means that most of the user interactions take the form of audio (mostly
output) and button presses, perhaps supplemented by LED blink patterns.
Furthermore two of the buttons (VOLUP and VOLDN) are usually reserved for
volume control functions (although they can be used for certain other tasks). That
leaves 3 application oriented buttons: PTT, FAPP, and SAPP. The PTT button is
used almost exclusively as a “”push to talk” trigger;there are really only two
“application oriented” buttons.
The EWB gets around this limitation by two mechanisms: the first is to define
certain button actions beyond just press and release. The first is a “single click”,
which is a quick press and release. The second is a “double click” which is two
quick press and release sequences. The third is a sustained press and hold. The
EWB 100 treats each of these as a distinct event from a UI perspective.

EWB100 Usage and Deployment Guide Rev 1.13
Page 15
The second mechanism is by multiple button sequences. At this time only two
button sequences are used but potentially there could be three and four button
sequences but they would be very awkward to use. There are currently 3 two
button sequences defined:
PTT + FAPP => Power off
PTT + SAPP => Status/configuration
VOLDN + SAPP (while in the cradle) => set to factory defaults
The LEDs are used mostly to indicate general device state. Blinking Green
means everything is working properly. Blinking Red means something is wrong.
Amber is not used at the moment.
Most of the use oriented “feedback” to the user is via the speaker. The EWB 100
uses a combination of tones and voice responses to indicate state and events to
the user. All of these tones and voice responses can be replaced with silence or
different audio sequences, including different languages.
2.3 Voice Modes
There are two primary voice modes. One is a walkie talkie (one to many) type.
One user presses the PTT button and talks and lots of people hear. Just like
more traditional walkie talkies, there are multiple channels available and users
can pick which ones they want to use by switching between them.
The second mode is for private point to point calls. This is called Private Reply
and keeps the same “push to talk” modality of the walkie talkie mode except that
it is a private session between two users. Such a session is setup after the
conclusion of a walkie talkie session via a simple button press sequence.
There are other voice modes beyond these two that will be described later in this
document.

EWB100 Usage and Deployment Guide Rev 1.13
Page 16
3 Internal Elements of the EWB100
This section introduces some of the more important internal aspects of the
EWB100 as well as some features beyond just the voice modes mentioned in the
previous section.
3.1 Two software subsystems
There are two software systems that run on the EWB100 device. The first is the
“mini-kernel”or “boot loader” which runs right after power on or reset. This
system does not have a lot of functionality but exists mostly to handle the
reloading of the main system when needed. This software has a limited set of
commands available but for the most part cannot examine or alter the system
configuration (although it can erase it entirely!). The minikernel’s commands are
documented in a separate section of this document
The second software system is the actual runtime code that has lots of
functionality and an extensive set of commands. Most of the commands in this
document apply only to the runtime software.
3.2 Configuration Data Base
There are many configuration parameters for the EWB100 device. Almost all
aspects of the behavior of the device may be altered by configuration
parameters. All configuration parameters have a default value that is part of the
runtime image and cannot be changed by the user except for some limited
values via the “User Defined Defaults” mechanism.
3.3 802.11 Radio
The ewb100 contains an 802.11 radio that operates in the 2.4GHz band. It
supports both 802.11b and 802.11g. The radio has been highly optimized to
reduce power consumption both when operating and when in standby mode.
3.4 IP Stack
The ewb100 contains an IPv4 protocol stack. It supports DHCP for obtaining IP
addresses. It also includes a simple Telnet server that can be used for diagnostic
and maintenance purposes.
3.5 Command Line Interpreter
There is a command line interpreter in the ewb100 that provides a means to
configure, update, monitor, and diagnose it. It provides complete access to the
configuration data base and so is used whenever the device needs to be
configured.
There are two versions of the CLI, one for the miniKernel and one for the runtime
code.

EWB100 Usage and Deployment Guide Rev 1.13
Page 17
3.6 Profiles
A profile is a set of configuration variables that control the user interface and
overall functionality of a EWB100 device. Different profiles are simply different
sets of the same configuration variables. Profiles define what functions are
associated with particular buttons, the alerts and notifications associated with UI
events, walkie talkie channels, etc. Virtually all user visible configuration
parameters are part of a profile. There are current 8 profiles per EWB100 and
they are accessed by selecting from profile numbers 0 to 7. Users select the
desired profile from the user interface.
3.7 Airbeam and MSP
Airbeam may be used to update the runtime code and configuration elements of
the EWB100. All updates are performed over the 802.11 network using the FTP
network protocol. Updates are described in files called “packages” and the EWB
looks for new packages on a regular basisThe EWB 100 also supports MSP for
runtime code updates and configuration.
3.8 Audio Clips and Default Dictionary
The EWB does not contain a text to speech engine but rather has a dictionary of
audio files called ”clips”. The device combines these clips into a meaningful
verbal phrase as needed. Some clips are tones while others are words. There
are about 500 audio clips stored in the “default dictionary” of the device by
default. New clips can be added to the device to enhance or replace the contents
of the default dictionary. These clips may be in other languages.
3.9 Web Server
The Ewb100 also contains a simple web server. External applications can use
this web server to command the device to perform simple tasks such as to play
one or more audio clips, flash the LEDs, and reset the device. The CLI is also
available using the Web Server.

EWB100 Usage and Deployment Guide Rev 1.13
Page 18
4 The Command Line Interpreter
4.1 Basic Concepts
The CLI on the ewb100 is used for a wide variety of functions including
configuration, updates, diagnostics, and maintenance. Its primary use, though, is
for configuring the device. The interface is very simple; it features one line
commands consisting of a key word and zero or more parameters. Most
commands take effect immediately.
The CLI is always available on the device and can be reached from a variety of
sources:
USB
Telnet
HTTP
Command Files
MSP
The CLI is the key to configuring the device since it is the only way to access the
configuration data base. Configuration commands may be entered one at a time
or in a sequence. This later technique is used in conjunction with the Airbeam or
MSP client.
4.2 The CLI and the ConfigurationData Base
The Configuration data base contains all the configuration information for the
EWB100 device. It is stored in a special area of flash memory. Configuration
changes are stored as changes from the default value. When the configuration
data base is erased, the system returns to the default values for all the
configuration parameters.
There are three different configuration areas in flash: two for user defined
information and one for manufacturing information. Multiple changes to the same
configuration value will result in prior values in the flash being invalidated and
new entries being created. Hence configuration areas can “fill up” with invalidated
data. Only one of the user defined areas is used at a time. When one area
becomes full (usually because to too many invalidated values), all the valid data
in it will be copied to the other area, which then becomes the current
configuration data base and the other area erased. No such mechanism exists
for the manufacturing area, since the data values are seldom altered. The state
of configuration memory is shown via the “st cfg” command.
User Defined Defaults is a mechanism by which the default values of certain
configuration parameters may be set by the user. These user defined defaults
will override the runtime default values when the device is restored to “factory
defaults.” They are limited to a few subsystems and parameters within those
subsystems. The goal of this feature is to allow a device to upload new

configuration information from a remote server even if the current configuration
has been corrupted. The “existing” configuration can be deleted and the “user
defined defaults” will be used to access the update server.
4.3 Accessing the CLI
As noted above, CLI is always available on the device and can be reached from
a variety of sources:
USB
Telnet
HTTP
“Command Files”
MSP
There is a USB interface on the device that also serves at the headset jack.
When used with the proper connector and with a driver on the PC, the CLI can
be accessed via HyperTerm on a Windows PC. The details on how to use the
USB connection is described in Appendix E
The Telnet and HTTP interfaces are available over the network.
Command Files are used to deliver a sequence of CLI command lines to the
device. These are downloaded by the Airbeam or MSP client from a server. They
are typically used to configure the device when there are more than just a few
configuration settings or when there are many devices to be configured.
The input model is very simple. When looking for the next character input, the
CLI routines examine 4 different input buffers. Each of these buffers corresponds
to one of the 4 above sources. The drivers for these sources simply deposit
characters into their buffer and the CLI will pull them out accordingly. With this
model one can mix input from different sources, although in practice this seldom
happens as only one interface is generally active at a time.
Output is directed to whatever source from which the last input character came.
The CLI syntax is simple and consists of a command followed by a number of
parameters. There is a help facility that can be accessed at any time by entering
a “?” (i.e. “set ?)” will display all the possible inputs to the set command). The
help facility is present on most but not all commands. All commands must be
entirely lower case.

Most input parameters can be shortened to the minimally unique string. Hence:
“set” can be “se”
“statistics can be “st”
“key” can be “ke” or even “k”
The key to using to the shortened format is that what is entered must be unique
among the possible options for the command.
4.4 CLI Access Control
4.4.1 Basic Concept
A password may be defined that will control access to the CLI via all
mechanisms. If a password is defined, the user must enter the password when
prompted (or must be included in CLI script files). If no password is defined,
access to the CLI is unrestricted.
4.4.2 Configuration Commands
4.4.2.1 set Password Command
This command defines a Customer defined CLI password. If a password is
defined, it must be entered before access the CLI is granted. If no password is
defined, access is unrestricted. By default no password is defined. The command
to set the password is:
set misc clipwd x
Where x is the password. If a password exists and the user wants to disable it,
then x should be set to “none”.
4.4.2.2 Encrypted Customer CLI Password Command
This command defines the Customer defined CLI password, using an encrypted
string. The string must be created using the clientencrypttool program found on
Motorola’s support site. If a password is defined, it must be entered before
access to the CLI is granted. If no password is defined, access is unrestricted. By
default no password is defined. The command to set the password is:
set misc eclipwd x
Where x is the encrypted version of the password. Note that x must be a multiple
of 32 hex digits up to a maximum of 128 hex digits. If a password exists and the
user wants to disable it, then x should be “none” (in encrypted form).
