ThissectiondescribeshowtosetupRLX2radiosinaminimalconfigurationbefore
deployingtheminthepermanentinstallation.Itwillhelpverifytheradiosare
operationalalongwithgettingfamiliarwithbasicconfigurationpr ocedures.
Notethattheproceduresdescribedinthissectionassumetheradiosareintheirdefault
configurationsasshippedbyProSoft.If thatisnotth
ecase,resettheradiostofactory
defaultsbeforeattemptingtheseprocedures.
Inanygivennetwork,theremustbeoneradioactingasaMaster,andtheotherradios
willbeconfiguredasRepeatersorClients.GenerallythereisonlyoneMasterrad
ioper
network.
BecausemostwirelessnetworksconsistofoneMasterradioandmultipleRepeaters,all
RLX2radiosareshippedfromProSoftpre‐configuredasRepeaters.Henceourfirsttask
istoconfigureoneradioasthenetworkMaster.
IMPORTANT: If a ProSoft Power adapter RL-PS007-2 (supplied with the RLX-IHBTK Bench Test
Kit) is not present, see instructions on wiring the power connector in this manual.
