RLX2 Series ♦ 802.11a, b, g, n Diagnostics and Troubleshooting
Industrial Hotspots User Manual
Once the power cable and Ethernet cable are connected to the radio, the
Power/Status LED should illuminate green. The SPEED LED should indicate a
valid wired link. The RF Transmit and RF Receive LEDs should start to blink
occasionally.
For Repeater or Client mode radios, all three Signal Strength LEDs will blink just
after the radio links to the Master’s signal but before it has been fully
authenticated. Normally this lasts only a few seconds. If it lasts longer or never
turns solid it usually means the encryption keys are not correct.
5.4 Retrieve the default password
If the password is unknown, the user will be unable to change the radio settings.
The user can retrieve the default password to use the software again, but will
lose all the settings that were programmed before.
To retrieve the default password and return the radio to its default settings:
1 Turn off power to the radio.
2 Locate the reset button hole.
3 Insert the end of a paperclip or similar device into the hole to press the reset
button.
4 While holding the reset button in with a paperclip, attach power to the radio,
and continue to hold down the reset button for 30 seconds.
5 The radio will be reset to its default settings, including the password. The
user should now be able to log in using the default password, which is
password.
