This concludes the basic setup of a Remote radio. A full listing of
Remote programming commands is given in CHAPTER-4 REMOTE
RADIO MANAGEMENT beginning on Page 79.
With all units connected, you are ready to connect data devices to the
transceivers so that their operation can be tested over the wireless net-
work.
2.5 STEP 4—CONNECT TERMINAL
EQUIPMENT
This step describes connection of external data equipment to the Remote
radio. Verify that your transceiver is capable of supporting your devices.
(See Table 1-1 . MDS entraNET 900 Models and Data Interface Ser-
vices, on Page 5 for a summary of model capabilities.)
Be sure not to overload the radio network with high bandwidth LAN
traffic during this test. Refer to Bridge Configuration Menu, on Page 39
for more information.
2.5.1 Ethernet Remotes
NOTE: Verify that the Remote’s ETH (Ethernet) port is enabled (on)
using the MODE command. If it is not, use the MODE=ON
command to enable the port.
Connect an Ethernet endpoint to the Remote’s
ETH port. The ETH port
will support any Ethernet-compatible device. This includes a device that
uses the Internet Protocol (IP).
2.5.2 Serial Remotes
Connect a serial device to the Remote’s COM2 port and verify that the
port settings are compatible with the connected device (baud rate, data
format, etc.)
2.6 STEP 5—CHECK FOR NORMAL
OPERATION
With the data equipment connected, you are ready to check the trans-
ceivers for normal operation.
Observe the transceiver LEDs on the top cover for the proper indica-
tions. In a normally operating system, the following LED indications
will be seen within 30 seconds of start-up:
•
PWR—Lit continuously
• LINK—Lit continuously
