pulsAR radio Operator's Manual
Once a connection to the radio is established, the radio outputs a prompt with the following
format:
rmt-nnnnn #>
where nnnnn are the last five digits of the radio serial number. If the radio had previously been
configured the prompt will be the radio
name.
6. Set radio 2 to its factory default configuration by typing the commands:
> load factory
> save-configuration
> logout
7. You should now see the Econsole> prompt again. Move the Ethernet cable from the radio 2
power inserter to the power inserter connected to radio 1. At the Econsole> prompt type the
command:
Econsole> discover
which causes Econsole to go out and identify radio 1. Connect to this radio with the command:
Econsole> connect 1
8. At the prompt from radio 1 type the commands:
> load factory
> node type=hub
> save-configuration
9. Once radio 1 is configured as the hub it will establish a RF communication with radio 2. To
verify this connection type:
> show
Check that the last lines indicates “Number of children: 1”. You may also type >show radios to
see various statistics of the link with radio 2.
10. Once the link is established you can use Econsole to further configure either of the two radios.
But Econsole must first perform its discovery again to find both radios:
> logout
Econsole> discover
Econsole should now list the two radios. Use the > connect n command to establish a command
session to either. To logout from one radio and get the list of radios again press the key [F4].
Section 4 describes the command language used to further modify the radio’s operating
parameters.
