Aaronia Spectran V4, User Manual

Page: 27 / 123

Getting started
First you have to configure your Aaronia RSA to your needs. Please start with the network configuration to make
sure that the RSA is running and available in you local network. Follow the instructions in the chapter
Network
Configuration.
After you have successfully finished the network configuration, you can login into the administration area.
Navigate to the
Server Control
page and press the button
Start Spectran Server
(green play button).
The server will start up after a couple of seconds and the message "Server started successfully" will appear
in the black console window. If the Spectran device was already powered on before booting the system, the
Spectran Server should run automatically. There is no need to start it manually. The combobox on bottom right of
the console window will be filled with serveral server commands.
If the combobox is empty after starting the server, or an error message appears in the console window,
something went wrong in server startup.
Reason could be, server couldn't find the spectrum analyzer device, because you forgot to turn on the spectrum
analyzer at the front panel of the RSA.
Try again to start the server by pressing the " Play " button.
If it won't work after some retries, you have the possibility to restart the hole system by clicking the button
" Reboot System ". This behavior can happen if the systems boots after a power failure crash. After the reboot
all should work well.
To find solutions for problems of the Spectran server, you can have a look to the server log files. They are located
in the administration area -> System Overview -> Server Logfile.
In the pre-release version, the logfiles are very detailed. In the release version, these messages will be reduced
to easier messages with an other structure.
Also the FAQ contain useful information for troubleshooting.
Now you have a running Remote Spectrum analyzer server.
Install and start the MCS Software on your client computer. Open the SPECTRAN menu and select " Network
connection ". The dialog will open and you have to enter the IP address and the server port of the RSA. If the
connection is established, the MCS ask for the authentication data.
It is possible to connect with each user you have configured on the RSA in the section " User Management" .
Thats all!
