Hardware Installation of the Raven

Connecting to a Computer or other Device

Figure 4-2: Serial

The serial port of your Raven can be connected directly to most computers or other devices using a standard straight through cable. If you have a DCE device, you will need a null modem or null modem cable.

Indicator Lights

When your Raven is connected to power and an antenna, there is a specific pattern to the lights to indicate its operation mode.

Figure 4-3: Raven Indicator lights

Chan (channel) ‐ Indicates the modem has acquired a network channel.

Link ‐ Indicates a successful connection to the cellular network.

Reg (registration) ‐ Indicates the Raven has acquired an IP fromSprint.

RSSI (signal level) ‐ Light shows the strength of the signal and may be nearly solid (strong signal) or flashing (weaker signal). A slow flash indicates a very weak signal.
