3. After several seconds, if an Ethernet cable is connected and an Ethernet network connection exists,
the
ENET LINK
LED will turn on and remain lit with a steady glow. It may blink briefly before
becoming steady.
4. After several seconds, the
TX/RX
LED will turn on and glow steadily, indicating the radio is
configured for transmit mode. This does not mean the radio is actively transmitting. In the default
power-on condition, the radio configures itself for transmit mode and then idles until it is given a
"start" command.
5. After several seconds, the
HEARTBEAT
LED will begin to blink to indicate the status of the
Built-In Test (BIT) initiated at power up .
• If
HEARTBEAT
blinks at a 1 Hz rate, then BIT has passed. Proceed to the
PC
Configuration
section of this document.
• If the
HEARTBEAT
blinks at a fast rate (approx. 10 Hz), or shows other behavior, then
BIT has failed. Turn the radio
OFF
and then back
ON
. If the
HEARTBEAT
again
blinks at a fast rate, then the radio is reporting a BIT error. At this point, you have two
options. You can proceed to the
PC Configuration
section of this document and attempt
to make Ethernet connection to the radio. If you are successful, the Users’ Manual
will
explain how BIT results can be collected using the Performance Analysis Tool (PAT).
Alternatively, you can use the RS232 interface to obtain the BIT results. The procedure
for doing this appears in the
Troubleshooting
the Radio
appendix of this document.
