Bench Testing (Optional) - Connect and Power Up

It is advised that the link be configured and tested on a bench before the final installation of the units on a pole or a mast. The following steps give details of how to connect an ODU to a PC in order to check the configuration details, change the IP settings or modify the license key. For the purpose of these tests, normal off-the-shelf Ethernet cables can be used.

Step 1: Connect the RJ45 at one end of a cable to the ODU.

Step 4: Put the cover back and tighten the screw.

Step 2: Undo the retaining screw of the PIDU Plus and hinge back the cover.

Step 5: Plug in power lead using a cable appropriate for the installation.

Step 3: Plug in the ODU to PIDU Plus Cable ensuring that it snaps home.

NOTE - If the power LED does not illuminate, re- move the power cable and the ODU connection from the PIDU Plus. Re- connect the power lead and check the power LED illumination (Green). If the power LED still does not light then check the power source.

Step 6: Connect a second Ethernet cable (shown in yel- low) to the “LAN” socket of the PIDU Plus.

Step 7: 30 seconds after powering, the Ethernet LED should be observed to flash slowly 10 times. If the Ethernet LED does not illuminate (Orange), then either the PIDU Plus or the cable to the ODU may be faulty. Replace cable and/or PIDU Plus and repeat from Step 1.

.

Step 8: Ensure PC is set to correct IP address 169.254.1.x, where 2 < x < 254. Connect the LAN cable to the PC (shown here in yellow).

Step 9: Check that the Ethernet LED is now ON. Refer to the Troubleshooting section in this guide if the LED does not show any activity when accessing web pages.
