10. Transmission Tests
You will want to perform these tests prior to deploying the
unit for service. Doing so now can save a lot of
troubleshooting time later.
Important Note: The Transmission Tests determine if
communication can be established via the specified method
without errors being returned. Because of this the TR-
700NW/AW must be connected to the network. This may
seem obvious after thinking about it, but it is surprising how
often people just proceed to this step while still only
connected via USB.
Disconnect the USB cable and plug in the power cable from
the A/C Adapter.
If you are configuring a TR-700AW the unit will attempt to
connect to your wireless LAN. The Link LED (located on
the right side of the unit) will blink while a connection is
being established. If the connection is successful the Link
LED will remain on solid. If the Link LED goes off the connection to the Wi-Fi router could not be established. If this is the case you
should recheck the SSID, however the most common cause is the Security Mode or Shared Key. Double check these settings against
those of your router. Please recall that the TR-700AW units do not support Enterprise Mode security.
If you are configuring a TR-700NW connect the unit to your LAN with an Ethernet cable. TR-700NW devices will always connect
unless there is a problem with the cable or the router is not configured for DHCP and the logger is expecting to receive an IP address
from it.
Next, click on the Settings via Network tab. The software should show a Searching notice and then show your logger in the Address
List window. Double click on your logger in the Address List and you will be prompted to enter the LAN Password you set in the
Device Settings page. At this point, as long as the password you entered is the correct one, and you have no firewall issues, the
software will connect with the logger through the network.
