1. Program one radio in the network as the root radio by entering the
DTYPE ROOT
command at the radio.
2. At the root radio, use the
DLINK ON
and
DLINK [baud rate]
commands
to configure the diagnostic link protocol on the Management Port.
3. Program all other radios in the network as nodes by entering the
DTYPE NODE
command at each radio.
4. Use the
DLINK ON
and
DLINK [baud rate]
commands to configure the
diagnostic link protocol on the Management Port of each node radio.
5. Connect same-site radios using a null-modem cable at the radios’
diagnostic ports.
6. Connect a PC running the management software to the root radio, or
to one of the nodes, using the radio’s
COM1
port. This PC can also
be the PC used to collect payload data, as shown in Figure 19.
7. Launch the diagnostic program at the PC.
8.3 User-Programmable I/O Functions -
Pending
The transceiver can be internally configured to provide three user I/O
functions on the
COM1
and
COM2
data connectors. These signals are
commonly used for RTU resetting or for analog input monitoring. Once
the transceiver has been properly configured, these pins can be activated
through compatible NMS software, such as Element Manager or InSite.
The jumpering changes required to enable these functions are beyond
the scope of this manual. Consult the factory for further information on
enabling and using these I/O functions.
8.4 Analog Operation of the Transceiver
The transceiver is designed for full digital modulation, while offering
analog support to those systems that require it. Operation is compatible
with the MDS x710 family of products, but some SD radio-specific
command configuration and wiring might be necessary based on differ-
ences in SD hardware. This section provides important information for
using the radio in analog service.
