Click the Connect button. The SOL8SDR should connect and the Primary Page will open
See that the green Connect button is showing. This means you are connected.
Note: We selected Serial Port in item 5 but we connected the PC to the transmitter with a USB cable. Why
not select the USB entry that was in the list?
The SOL8SDR handles the serial cable and the USB cable as serial connections. If we use one of these two
cables we must select Serial Port. USB only appears in the list to deal with legacy products.
4.10.4 Troubleshooting
SOL8SDR won’t connect!
SOL8SDR will only connect to Domo Device Controller if it is configured as a Transmitter. Connect using
the web browser and go to the Configuration>Global Tab and change the Application to TX.
My SOL8SDR2X2W-P won’t connect!
SOL8SDR2X2W-P will only connect using IP. Change the Device Controller connection type to TCP
Socket, see section 4.9 or use web browser control.
