Mechanical checks
Before switching on the product:
• Ensure that:
– All securing bolts are fully tightened and the

check the installation.
Connecting to a Radar scanner over
RayNet
Once you’ve made all the relevant power and
data connections as described in the
Cables
and connections
section, you can use the Radar
application on a compatible display to conduct
further initial tests.
For detailed instructions on how to conduct the initial
tests, refer to the
Radar application
chapter of the
Operations handbook for your display.
Note:
If you have a Wi-Fi-only variant Radar
scanner, refer to the
Pairing with a Quantum
Radar using Wi-Fi
section for information on
connecting to an MFD via Wi-Fi.
Powering on a Quantum Radar
With the radar scanner in a powered off state, and
connected to a compatible multifunction display
(MFD):
1. On the MFD, launch the Radar application.
A message box is displayed indicating that a
Radar scanner is off or “not connected”.
2. Select
On
from the onscreen message box.
The Radar will power up in Standby mode.
3. Once the Radar has powered up, select
Tx
to
start the Radar transmitting.
Radar returns will now be displayed onscreen.
Pairing with a Quantum Radar using
Wi-Fi
If your Radar scanner supports a Wi-Fi connection,
you can connect to a
LightHouse
TM
MFD which also
supports Wi-Fi. During pairing, the Wi-Fi credentials
of all MFDs with Wi-Fi switched on are sent to the
Quantum Radar. At subsequent power cycles the
Quantum Radar will automatically connect to the
MFD with the strongest signal.
Note:
1.
During initial set up you will have 10 minutes in
which to connect the Radar to your MFD. After
this time, if no connection is made, the Radar
will automatically go to Sleep. If this occurs,
power cycle the Radar to bring it out of Sleep
mode and establish a connection.
2.
Networked MFDs that only have their Wi-Fi
enabled after the initial pairing period, will
send Wi-Fi credentials to the Radar when their
Wi-Fi is switched on.
1. Apply power to your MFD(s).
2. Power on and then enable the Wi-Fi connection
to the MFDs which have the strongest signal, as
identified during the pre-installation site survey.
Usually these will be the MFDs closest to and / or
with the clearest line of sight to the Radar).
3. Apply power to your Radar scanner.
4. Select
Quantum Radar
from the External
Devices menu on the MFD: (
Homescreen >
Set-up > System Settings > External Devices
> Quantum Radar
).
5. Select
Pair with Quantum Radar
.
6. If prompted, select
Ok
to enable your MFD’s
Wi-Fi connection.
7. Enter the Radar’s SSID (e.g.
Quan-
tum_1234567
) in the
SSID
field and the
passcode (e.g.
901589f5
) in the
Passcode
field.
Refer to the
Retain your Wi-Fi Passcode
section
for details on locating your SSID and Passcode.
Important:
• Ensure that the SSID and Passcode are entered
exactly as shown on the serial number label that
was supplied with the Radar.
• The SSID is always made up of the word
“
Quantum
”, followed by an underscore “
_
”,
followed by the product’s 7 digit
serial number
,
(e.g.
Quantum_1234567
).
8. Select
Connect
.
The initial connection can take up to 2 minutes to
complete.
9. Select
Ok
from the Successful Connection
pop-up.
