Step 4 – Remote Radio Modem 

Connect the Radio Modem Aerial to the Radio Modem. 
Connect the appropriate cable to the Radio Modem (for 
example the 14C0038A connector J3 for the RT3000). 

To make sure that the Radio Modem is receiving correc-
tions from the RT-Base look at the LEDs. The Table 
below gives a description for some of the LEDs on the 
radio modem.

Receiving a packet 

The Remote Radio Modem should receive a packet (RD 
and CD both green) once per second, with a slightly 
longer packet once every 10 seconds. 

Step 5 – Charging 

The battery in the RT-Base will last more than 10 hours 
when fully charged. To recharge the battery connect the 
RT-Base unit to a mains supply for at least 2 hours. 

RT3000 Connection 

 

The connection of the Radio Modem to the RT3000 is 
shown above. Most of the RT3000 User Cables have J3 
as the Radio Modem connection; check in the RT3000 
manual if you are unsure.
