1. Hardware Overview

1.1 Interface Description

Unit Interface Description

ODU N type Connector (For

Antenna)

Outdoor unit (ODU) with external antenna option.

Ethernet Port Allows connecting the device to a wired network.

PoE

Adaptor

LAN Allows connecting the device to a wired network

POE Power over Ethernet port to transmit power and data to

the ODU


1.2 Caution and Warnings

• Internal settings, adjustment, maintenance, and repairs should be performed only by a

skilled technician who is aware of the hazards involved.

• Do not tightly secure the ODU to its mounting brackets until the alignment process of the

antenna is complete.

• Before installing an ODU, ensure that it is disconnected from power.

• Check that there are no direct obstructions or interferences in front of Antenna.

• Supply the appropriate AC/DC power to the equipment. Incorrect AC/DC power settings

can damage the equipment and may cause injury to the user.

• Avoid standing in front of a live ODU. This radio requires clear LOS (line-of-sight) for

operation.

• Make sure that both master and slave sites are assigned different IP addresses before

they are installed.

• Do not connect or disconnect the cables during the period of lightning.

• ODU’s must be attached to a properly grounded structure and installed masts must be

grounded to provide protection against lightning.

Mount ODU on the pole or mast with the help of mounting brackets.

Connect the ground cable to the chassis point on the ODU.

Attach the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector.

Secure the cables to the mast or brackets using UV-rated cable ties.

Repeat the procedure at the slave site.

For more details about the required components for ODU installation and the detailed

for mounting the ODU on a mast or pole, refer to the “Deployment and Installation

adaptor is to be

and inside the building.


STEP 7 Place the PoE adaptor near to other user equipment (such as Switch/Router).

STEP 8: Connect the ODU cable to the appropriate RJ-45 connector on the POE designated port of

PoE adaptor.

��Note: The Cat5e Shielded Ethernet cable from PoE adaptor to the ODU should be less than 100

meters in length.

STEP 10 Connect power to the PoE adaptor.

��Note: AC power is supplied to the PoE adaptor through a standard 3-prong plug using 1.5m (5 ft)

standard power cable.

Aligning the Master and Slave ODU

STEP 1 Verify normal operation of the PoE adaptor by the LED indications on the ODU.

STEP 2 The Radio Modem operates in a pair of two Radio Modems with the same configuration, one

as a master and another as a slave. Both the units are installed on the top of a tower/pole or a wall.

STEP 3 Align the master ODU in the direction of the slave ODU and vice-versa.

Perform the following steps to align both master and slave Radio Modems:

• Adjust the Azimuth and elevation of the Radio Modem(s) to get the desired orientation and

tighten the nuts.

• Turn the slave Radio Modem slowly towards the master, listening to the beep sequence

until optimal alignment is achieved.

Frequency of beep confirms the link quality. The signal strength improves with the increase in the

beep frequency. After approximately 40 seconds, the Radio Modem starts beeping, indicating its

normal operation.

The indication of signal strength is done during the first 30 minutes (software configurable) after

bootup or since value was changed whichever happens later. This is applicable for both the master

and slave Radio Modem(s).

The following table shows you the different beeper sequences and the signals.


Beeper Sequence = Off

= On

Description

Indicates a good signal

Indicates a weak signal

No air link or buzzer/alignment

duration is over

Note: You need to achieve the best possible link quality values. In case of the radio link loss, verify

the alignment at both master and slave Radio Modem.

STEP 4 Secure and tighten both master and slave ODU onto the mast/wall.

STEP 5 Monitor the link quality for about 15 minutes to verify the link stability.

Congratulations! The installation of the Radio Modem is complete.


3. Configuring RM-24/58

STEP 1 Use desktop with Internet explorer or Firefox web browser for configuration the Radio

Modem. Recommended browsers are IE 8 or above and Firefox 3.6.23.

STEP 2 Connect the desktop to the LAN port of the PoE adaptor.

STEP 3 Configure the IP of your desktop in the same domain (Default IP of Radio Modem: 192.168.0.1

(for master), 192.168.0.2 (for slave))

STEP 4 Open the web browser and type the URL http://192.168.0.1 (master) or http://192.168.0.2

(for slave) and press enter. Login dialog box will appear, provide user name as admin and password

as public.

On successful login, following window appears.

STEP 5 Click Wireless in the navigation pane. The General – Configuration page appears.


Step 6 Select the Edit checkbox under Radio pane to configure the radio settings.

Configure the SSID (optional) & Tx Power as required and press the save button.

Note: Do not adjust the radio Tx Power parameter to a value higher than is legally allowed

value in your country.

Step 7 Select the Edit checkbox under Channel pane to configure the channel settings.

Specify the desired frequency in the Preferred Channel List to configure the settings. And press the

save button.

Note: Use the frequency that is legally allowed for you to use in your country.

Step 8 After configuring the unit Select Tools/Services followed by OP & Mgmt in the navigation

pane and select Commit to Flash option and press the save button.

Note 1: In case of slave Radio Modem, either 0 or frequency configured at master should be

configured in Preferred Channel List. If 0 is configured, slave Radio Modem will scan and

connect with master Radio Modem.

Note 2: Operational Status is shown by LEDs on web page (lower right hand corner), RU,

Synch and Radio shall be green (unlocked) on master. If any LED is not green, click on the

LED to make it green (unlocked). On the slave the RU and Radio shall be green. Sync would be

red when the RF link is not established and it will change to green once the link gets

established.

Please refer to “Deployment and Installation Guide” or “Configuration and User Guide” for more

details.


4. Quick Troubleshooting

Problem Probable Reason Resolution

PoE adaptor LED is ‘Off’. The PoE adaptor has no

power.

• Verify that AC/DC power is connected to the PoE

adaptor.

• Ensure that you are using the same power adaptor

supplied with the unit.

Buzzer beep signals are weak. There is an alignment

problem.

• Verify the ODU alignment and reconfigure

the link.

• Verify the alignment tone sounds the best

signal sequence.

• In case of external antenna, verify the

connectivity between the antenna and ODU.

No beeper signal.

• Buzzer configuration

• ODU cable is not

properly wired.

• There is no

connectivity between

external antenna and

ODU.

• ODU is not aligned

properly

• Go to Wireless>Advance> PoE & Buzzer pane

and configure 1 in buzzer Duration.

• Ensure appropriate configuration of channel

BW, preferred channel list, ACL, SSID and

encryption at Master and Slave ODU.

• Unlock RU/Synch/Radio if it is locked.

• Ensure that the ODU cable is properly wired

and connected.

• Verify the Antenna alignment, connectivity

between Antenna & ODU and Link budget.

• Verify channel condition using site survey

and switch to better channel.
