MegaPort Manager - Troubleshooting
How to verify that the IO is working properly
Important: All these steps are related to a MPG that has other
MPO’s that are working properly
Connect the PC to the MPO and the ping the RF port of the MPG
@ 192.168.0.1. No response, go to #1.
1. Ensure the MPO MAC is defined in the system using the
MegaPort Manager Software.
2. Open the ConfigIO and verify a green light in the link status.
If the light is red press the summary tab and observe if the IO
parameters are matching this MPG, If it matches, check for
DS RF problem.
3. Check the RF cable connection- check the cable is connected
properly.
4. Press the Monitor RF status tab and observe if the upstream
power is stable. If it is not stable check for US RF problem
5. On the PC, observe that the IO-NETWORK-DEVICE receives an
IP from the DHCP server. Open a DOS window type “ipconfig/
release” and then “ipconfig/renew”.
6. In the ConfigIO software, go to IO settings, click the “Automatic
US Power “(Uncheck the box √ ) Enter 10 at the “Static US
Power Value”, and click set.
7. Click the “Automatic US Power “ (Uncheck the box √ again )
and click set, observe if the upstream power is stable. If it is
not stable continue to number 8. Open a DOS window, type
“ipconfig/release” and then “ipconfig/renew”.
8. Connect this IO to another PC.
9. Connect this IO at another known good location that has been
tested with a PC.
