Remote Radio Management
Local configuration of Remote transceivers is performed through a PC terminal connected to
the COM1 port of the radio. This chapter explains how to establish a console session with the
Remote, and provides a complete list of commands.
Programming Methods
Terminal Interface Mode
A PC program such as HyperTerminal may be used to establish a terminal session with the
Remote transceiver. The PC must be connected to the radio via its COM1 connector. Refer to
PC Connection and Log-In Procedures
for detailed cabling information.
The HyperTerminal communications program can be accessed on most computers by
selecting Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal.
The following terminal settings must be used to communicate with the Remote transceiver:
▪ 19,200 bps data rate
▪ 8 data bits • no parity • one stop bit (8N1)
▪ hardware flow control disabled
▪ ANSI or VT100 emulation.
The exact parameters given above must be used for terminal communication. Improper
settings are a common cause of difficulty.
Remote Management via the AP
Several Remote parameters may be configured over the air using the AP Management
System. For more information on Remote Management via the AP, refer to Wireless Network
Menu
in the previous chapter.
