HT Ethernet Addendum 

  

900MHz 

  

V1.0h 

Setup: 

To program the modem, proceed as described in the Main Manual, with the following 
exceptions: 

 

Capital U on the diagnostics port brings up the setup menu.

 

 

You must use the diagnostic port (there's no RS232 Data Port in this modem) 

 

You must select the following settings. 

 

Setup Menus  

 
NOTE: The Baud Rate setting is neither the over the air data rate of the Radio Link, nor the data 
rate of the Ethernet 10Base-T connection to the LAN.  This Baud Rate strictly sets the protocol 
internal to the Modem, between the Ethernet Interface and the RF modem. 

 

Menu 1,  

                                SET BAUD RATE 
                        Modem Baud is 1382400 

Must be “9”

 (1382.4Kbps) 

 
(0) 230,400 
(1) 115,200 
… 
(9) 1382.4KB 
(A) Data, Parity 

Must be "0" 

(Default) 

(B) MODBus RTU 

Must be "0" 

(Disabled) 

(C) RS232/485 

0

  

Must be "0" 

(TTL) 

(D) Setup Port 

Must be "2"* 

(Diagnostics port used for Set-up) 

(E) TurnOffDelay 0    TurnOnDelay   0 

No effect "0" 

(Default for both) 

(F) FlowControl    

Must be "1"

 (CTS flow control) 

 

Menu 1, Submenu F 

Ethernet/IP Radio Setup 
 
(0)   Ethernet Mode 

1

 

Must be set to "1"* 

(1)   Half/Full Duplex 

 

 

Select either, depending on your network

 

(2)   Slave IP Stack 

 

 

 

Must be set to “1” 

(3)   Slave UDP Mode 

(4)   IP Address   

255.255.255.255 

Used for diagnostics only 

(5)   Port Address  

4131

 

 

Default Port Address 

(6)   IP Address 2  

255.255.255.255

 

(7)   Port Address 2  

6535 

(8)   MAC Filter 0 

 

 

 

0 disables internal MAC filter. 1 enables.

 

 

*NOTE

: Once the "Ethernet Mode" setting is set to 1 (Menu 0, Submenu F, Option 0), the "Set-Up 

Port" (Menu1, option D) can no longer be changed.  Therefore, it is important to ensure the "Set-
Up Port" is set at "2", prior to enabling the "Ethernet Mode".
