TS4000 Radio Modem User’s Manual  

TS4000 Overview 

 

6 

With the standard case power can be connected through either the power 
connector or one of the serial port connectors.  The power connector is a 2 pin 
Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 (Molex P/N 43045-0202) with pin 1 as ground and pin 2 as 
power.  The mating plug for this connector is a Molex P/N 43025-0200.  See the 
Serial Port section for details on connecting power through the serial ports. 

Standard Case 

 
With the watertight case power is connected through the sealed interface 
connector. 

Watertight Case 

 
The TS4000 has an internal 4 amp fuse for each of the three possible power 
connections. The power source used with the TS4000 should also be fused with 
an in-line power fuse. 

Fuses 

 
 
The preferred method of mounting the TS4000 is to use the mounting bracket 
supplied with the modem.  An alternative is to use the threaded mounting holes 
in the bottom of the TS4000 (see Appendix D - Case Dimensions).  

Mounting 

 
 
The TS4000 is supplied with a windows based PC configuration program.  
Configuring the TS4000 consists of configuring the modem operating parameters 
and also configuring the frequency channels.  For details on how to load and 
start the configuration program see Installation in the TS4000 Configuration 
Program section.   

Configuring the 
TS4000 

 
Making selections with the controls on the various configuration screens sets a 
configuration.  Once set, configurations can be programmed into the TS4000.  In 
addition, configurations can be retrieved from the TS4000.  Configurations can 
also be stored and recalled as PC files.  Details about the configuration controls 
are available later in this manual and in the on line help of the configuration 
program. 
 

 
Teledesign provides general-purpose wireless modem test software 
called AirTest.  AirTest can send data and gather performance statistics, 
including BER (Bit Error Rate), about the link between two modems.  

AirTest is accessed with the AirTest button on the main screen of the 
configuration program (See Testing - AirTest). 

AirTest - Data 
Testing 

 
 
The TS4000 comes with flash program memory that allows the firmware to be 
easily upgraded in the field. Firmware is upgraded with the upgrade program 
which is included as part of the TS4000 configuration program.  The upgrade 
program is started with the Upgrade Firmware button on the main screen of the 
configuration program (See Upgrading Firmware). 

Upgrading the 
TS4000 Firmware 

 
 
AirScan is a program that comes with the TS4000 configuration program and 
enables the TS4000 to be used as a frequency scanner.  AirScan is useful for 
determining the frequency and magnitude of potential interference within the 
TS4000’s frequency band.  AirScan is started with the AirScan button on the 
main screen of the configuration program (See Testing - AirScan). 

AirScan 

 
 
Remote diagnostics is used to check the status of remote TS4000s over the air.  
This allows the radio communication to be setup and tested independent of the 
host equipment.
