MOBIC T8 in areas susceptible to electromagnetic interference
Use in areas susceptible to electromagnetic interference
Caution
Wireless LAN PCMCIA card CP 1515
If you use the MOBIC T8 in an area susceptible to
electromagnetic interference, for example an airplane or in
a hospital, then you have to disable the wireless LAN
PCMCIA card CP 1515 or, depending on how it is installed,
remove or unplug it. This applies also for all other areas in
which wireless LAN is not permitted.
If a CP 1515 is installed or inserted in a MOBIC T8, then
the icon is visible in the status area.
If the icon is displayed in the status area, the CP 1515
is not operational, but it is enabled. Disable the CP 1515 if
you are in an area susceptible to electromagnetic
interference with the MOBIC T8.
If no icon is displayed in the status area, the CP 1515 has
been disabled or removed.
Removing the CP 1515
It makes sense to remove the CP 1515 if the MOBIC T8 is to
be used continually in an area susceptible to
electromagnetic interference. The removal and installation of
the CP 1515 is described in the manual "Industrial
Communication" for the MOBIC T8, chapter 4.5.
Unplugging or disabling the CP 1515
It makes sense to unplug or disable the CP 1515 if the
MOBIC T8 is to be used temporarily in an area susceptible
to electromagnetic interference.

MOBIC T8 in areas susceptible to electromagnetic interference
Procedure
1. Switch on the MOBIC T8.
2. Select "Start ► Settings ► Control Panel ► Regional and
Language Options".
3. Open WLAGS641.
The dialog "Siemens Wireless Network Driver" opens.
4. Select the "IP Address" tab.
5. Select the "Disabled" checkbox.
6. Press OK.
The icon no longer appears in the status area.
7. Close the open window.
Result
The CP 1515 is disabled. The icon WLAGS641 is identified
with a red "x" in the window "Network Connections".
Installing the CP 1515
Procedure
1. Insert the CP 1515 in the internal slot.
2. Protect the CP 1515 with the terminal block.
The terminal block prevents the CP 1515 from slipping
out of the slot during rough usage conditions.
Enhancement of the WLAN range
The range of the WLAN can be enhanced if you place the
Wireless LAN PCMCIA card CP 1515 on the front side of the
device under the protective cover instead of in the battery
compartment. In this case, protection rating IP65 is not
guaranteed.

MOBIC T8 in areas susceptible to electromagnetic interference
Caution
IP65 degree of protection
The MOBIC T8 only has the level of protection IP65 if the
PCMCIA port under the protective cover can be closed
when the PCMCIA card is inserted.
Enhancement of the rechargeable battery time
If the CP 1515 is not required, removing or disabling it
increases the rechargeable battery time. Additional notes on
this are available on the Internet at:
