-Power
The FLC820G can be supplied with 10 to 28 VDC. The “DC Input Monitor” will tell you if the supplied power is acceptable.
If one of the two middle yellow LED’s are lit then the supplied power to the FLC820G is acceptable. If the top Red LED
(High) or the bottom Green LED (Low) is lit, then the power supplied is not acceptable.
Note:
If the “High” LED is lit, damage to the modem can occur.
-LAN Port
The LAN port on the FLC820G is an auto sence port. This feature will auto sense the connection type (cross or straight)
so that either a straight or cross cable will work regardless of what your connecting to.
-Antenna
In order to improve the RF signal radiation of your antenna, proper antenna placement is necessary. Try to place the
antenna as high as possible to increase the coverage area. Also, do not place the antenna directly next to a metal object
(such as a steel beam or wall) or next to another radio antenna. If you have further questions, please contact Data-Linc
Group support.
-Reset
Press and hold the
“Reset”
button for about 3 seconds until all LEDs go off. This action will restore the factory default set
-
tings of the FLC820G and enable you to configure the FLC820G via the default IP address and password.
Note:
Once the modem is reset to the factory default all previous configurations will be lost.
