MODULES

)

3.2.1  “Local” Network Connection

Identify each of the Fibre Cables to be used (using a visible light 
source if necessary).

Connect the Fibre Cables  to the ST connectors on the BVRDFIF/
S module (refer to Figure 2.4 on page 6 for connection details).

Ensure the “Local” BVRD2M/4 is switched on and the network is 
enabled in configuration.

Connect the RJ45 patch lead to the BVRDFIF/S module.

N

OTE

:  The LED on the BVRDFIF/S will not flash until the network is 

connected and receiving data.

3.2.2  “Remote” Network connection

Go to the “Remote” unit.

Ensure the “Remote” BVRD2M/4 is switched on and the network 
is enabled in configuration.

Connect the BVRD2M/4 to the RJ45 connector on the 
BVRDFIF/S module.

Connect the Fibre cables to the ST connectors.

The LEDs on the BVRDFIF/S modules should now flash regularly 
to indicate data is being received.

N

OTE

:  If the LED on the BVRDFIF/S module does not flash then swap 

the Fibre Cable connections. It is likely the TX and RX are swapped.

If the LEDs still do not flash then refer to “Fault Finding” on 
page 10.
