Chapter 2: Installing the IntelliVue Smart-hopping 1.4 GHz Core Access Point
7. Connect the Access Point to the IntelliVue Smart-hopping Sync Unit only when
appropriate as part of the overall IntelliVue Smart-hopping installation.
a) After initially connecting and powering the Core AP, verify that the two status
LEDs on each of its connected Remote Antennas are lit. You can verify this
by viewing the AP’s Status page presented in the APC web interface.
Note If after connecting and powering the Core AP, its LEDs are lit red and the Remote
Antenna LEDs do not light at all, open the APC web interface, click System in the
View Device tree, click Configure and then select the Advanced tab. Verify that the
Allow new APs to be added automatically option is set to True. This option must be
set to True for the Core AP and Remote Antenna LEDs to light properly.
b) Reboot the Core AP.
The Core AP and its connected Remote Antennas should now be listed in the
APC web interface. Press F5 to refresh the web interface display if the Core
AP and RAs are not listed.
General AP configuration information is given on page 2-40. See page 2-40 for the
AP startup sequence.
