signal.
Exp(ecting) Sync(hronization)
—

beacon signal for its network.
Hop Sync
—
The unit has changed its frequency hopping pat-
tern to match that of the Access Point.
Connected
—The unit has a radio (RF) connection with the
Access Point, but has not obtained cyber-security clearance
to pass data.
Associated
—This unit has successfully synchronized and
associated with an Access Point. This is the normal status.
Alarmed
—The unit is has detected one or more alarms that
have not been cleared.
c. When the network is operating properly based on observation
of the unit’s LEDs, connect a computer to the transceiver’s
data port that will be used by the local terminal equipment.
Send the
PING
command to verify the communications link
integrity with the Access Point.
d. After the
PING
command is successful, connect the terminal
equipment to the radio’s data port and verify normal opera-
tion.
If all checks are OK, you are finished with the installation at this site.

including the password (default =
admin
), you must enter a special
code (authorization key) provided by the factory in place of the user
name at the time of login.
To reset the admin password to the factory default (“admin”)
