First Time Configuration
When you connect to a new module or one that is restored to its factory default settings, you need to configure the
model locale and radio configuration parameters. These parameters must be specified before the modem can be
used. Radio configuration parameters include transmit and receive frequency, channel step size, and the transmit
power level as required by country regulation.
The Locale Configuration page (Figure 24) appears automatically when you connect to the module at the default IP
address shown on the label on the underside of the module.
NOTE If the locale parameters are not configured on the modem, the OK LED appears red and the
transmitter is unable to transmit.
1. On the Local Configuration page, click the Locale drop-down menu and select the appropriate locale
designation for the country of operation.
The table on the Local Configuration page shows the available locales and frequency ranges based on the
radio hardware.
