1.2 Getting Started Quickly

Most applications for the BU-945U-E require little configuration. The BU-945U-E has many sophisticated features, however if you don’t require these features, this section will allow you to configure the units quickly.

First, read Chapter 2, “Installation.” The BU-945U-E requires an antenna and a power supply.

•Power the BU-945U-E and make an Ethernet connection to your PC (for further information on how to do this, refer to section 3.3 “Configuring the Unit for the first time”)

•Set the BU-945U-E address settings as per section 3.3 “ Configuring the Unit for the first time”

•Save the configuration - the BU-945U-E is now ready to use.

Before installing the BU-945U-E, bench test the system. It is a lot easier to locate problems when the equipment is all together.

There are other configuration settings, which may or may not improve the operation of the system. For details on these settings, refer to section 3.1 “Start-up.”
