Procedure Overview for a New Installation
This procedure assumes a new, unconfigured terminal (IP address not configured).
1. Check the hardware installation is complete at both ends of the link and the Eclipse
terminals are ready for power-on. For hardware installation details, refer to
Chapter 3.
2. Prepare your Portal PC for access to a DHCP server (TCP/TP properties set to
obtain an IP address automatically), and connect your Portal PC to Edge using an
Ethernet cable (Mdi or MdiX).
3. Power-on at the front panel by inserting the power connector. Power must be on for
90 seconds before a Portal connection is possible.
• If connection is attempted during this start up phase, an error message may be
returned advising Portal cannot determine the type of terminal at.... If such an
error message is returned, close and reopen Portal.
4. Open Portal to the Start Up screen and click connect, whereupon a DHCP
connection is established.
NOTE:
Once powered up the ODU will be transmitting with the
pre-configured or ex-factory frequency and power settings unless
the transmit mute option has been invoked as the start-up default.
If mute default has not been selected and if frequency and/or power
settings are not correct for the application, interference may be
caused to other links in the same geographical area. If in doubt,
check Link configuration as a priority on initial power-on, and
reconfigure as necessary. Refer to Link Configuration on page 36 .
