Digital Configuration

1. Digital configuration is done by means of the radio’s built in browser interface. The unit should be 

powered on and connected at least temporarily to a network containing a computer that can run a 

conventional web browser. 

2. Using your web browser, connect to the radio as described in the Quick Start Guide found earlier 

in this manual.
3. The initial page after a successful login is “Quick Set.” The content of this page is somewhat 

different for the AW58800HTP Bridge A and Bridge B.
4. Each page provides a menu on the left to navigate from section to section. The menu looks like this 

when its sections are expanded:

Beware that certain actions may cause the web page to freeze. In most cases, this is because you are 

viewing a browser-cached version of the page and not the live one from the radio. Clear your browser 

cache and/or logout and log back in to recover. You are cautioned not to use the “back” button on 

your browser to attempt to move back to earlier pages. If you do, you will be logged out and will 

need to login again.

In  the  upper  right  of  the  page  is  a  label  that  tells  you  the  version  of  the  web  interface.  If  the 

version number is not the same as shown below, you might want to visit www.avalanwireless.com 

(the Downloads page under the Support menu) to see if a newer version of this manual exists before 

proceeding further.
