module so that it can register with a backhaul timing master module. The color codes must match.

The operator can prevent unauthorized users from connectig to the backhaul module’s web based interface by assigning a password. There is no default password and password protection is turn off is turn off from the factory.

Passwords can be from 1 to 16 characters. Any combination of characters is allowed, except for these special characters: “ , . ‘ { } / \ ; : [ ] ( ) ` ~

NOTE: If the operator forgets either the password or the IP address for the module, a Canopy default plug can be used to regain access. See Configuration for information on the default plug.

There are two types of passwords that can be configured: display-only or full-access. The display- only password allows the operator to view the module’s current status. The full-access password allows the operator to view the module’s current status and change its configuration. By viewing the red lettering to the right of the entry fields, the operator can discern that a password is set.

The operator can enter in information about the Site Name, Location, and Contact. This is optional.

See the Access Point Cluster and Cluster Management Module user manual for details on configuration and installation of a cluster management module.

Installation of the equipment

When power is applied to a Canopy module or the unit reset via the web-based interface, the module will take approximately 25 seconds to boot up. During this boot up time, power on self- tests and other diagnostics are being performed.

The following steps are needed to install the Canopy equipment:

Remove the base cover from all Canopy backhaul timing master modules to be installed.

Remove the GPS sync cable knockout from the base cover with needle-nose pliers.

Mount the backhaul modules:

oThe modules can be mounted in a variety of locations, choose the best location for your particular application. Mounting can be done by utilizing stainless steel hose clamps or another equivalent fastener.

Route the Ethernet cable from the backhaul module to the cluster management module.

oThe Ethernet cables use RJ-45 connectors (standard Ethernet) that connect to matching ports within the cluster management module.

oA total of 8 ports are available on the cluster management module, to accommodate a combination of access point modules and backhaul timing master modules.

Route the GPS sync (serial) cable from the backhaul timing master module to the cluster management module.

oThe GPS sync cables use 6 conductor RJ-11 connectors that connect to matching ports within the cluster management module.
