Remote Radio Management

Local configuration of Remote transceivers is performed through a PC terminal connected to the COM1 port of the radio. This chapter explains how to establish a console session with the Remote, and provides a complete list of commands.

Programming Methods

Terminal Interface Mode

A PC program such as HyperTerminal may be used to establish a terminal session with the Remote transceiver. The PC must be connected to the radio via its COM1 connector. Refer to PC Connection and Log-In Procedures for detailed cabling information.

The HyperTerminal communications program can be accessed on most computers by selecting Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal.

The following terminal settings must be used to communicate with the Remote transceiver:

19,200 bps data rate

8 data bits • no parity • one stop bit (8N1)

hardware flow control disabled

ANSI or VT100 emulation.

The exact parameters given above must be used for terminal communication. Improper settings are a common cause of difficulty.

Remote Management via the AP

Several Remote parameters may be configured over the air using the AP Management System. For more information on Remote Management via the AP, refer to Wireless Network Menu in the previous chapter.
