QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES System Performance (CPE and PxP Modes only) Select Refresh Rate Each radio button represents a Refresh Rate. Many browsers do not allow infinite refreshes of a page through scripts, so this page may stop updating. If it does, simply change the Refresh rate to another value to restart the process. Associated Access Point Information about the access point is displayed here.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES Statistics The Statistics Screen is divided into 3 main areas, UMAC*, LMAC* and Ethernet. For Radio Troubleshooting, the UMAC statistics are likely the most useful. The UMAC breaks down the statistics into Good and Bad Packets, whereas LMAC defines why the packets are bad. The statistics are further divided into TX, RX and INT. TX and RX values are useful to ISPs and other users. The INT (Internal) stats are intended for use by Tranzeo Wireless Technical Support.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES The failed packets should be 1% or less in a normal operating environment. In the TX statistics, there should little to no Retransmits at Series 2, 3 or 4. Life Statistics are reset on each reboot. In the Ethernet Statistics screen, excessive collisions are usually a sign that the radio and the device it is linked to are not on the same Duplex options. One is at full while the other is at half. Try locking both to the same values.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES APPENDIX A: Lightning Information What is a proper Ground? This antenna must be grounded to a proper Earth Ground.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES Ungrounded Radio An ungrounded radio causes the surge to pass through the radio. In this case the radio most likely will be damaged. Antenna Radio POE Ground Grounded Radio A grounded radio causes the surge to pass directly to ground, bypassing the radio. Antenna Radio POE Ground This document is intended for Public Distribution 28 19473 Fraser Way Pitt Meadows, B.C. Canada V3Y 2V4 Phone (604) 460-6002 Fax (604) 460-6005 www.tranzeo.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES Mounting Pole In this case, the surge will be picked up by the Cat 5 cable, and since the POE is not grounded, the route for the surge is through the radio to the antenna, and out through the building. POE Cat 5 Cable . Mounting Pole In this case, the surge will be picked up by the Cat 5 cable, and since the POE is grounded, the route for the surge is through the POE to ground.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES Best Practices 1) Always try to run the Cat5 and LMR inside of the mounting pole wherever possible. This helps to insulate the cable from any air surges. Building Cat 5 Cable 2) Keep all runs as straight as possible. Never put a loop into the cables. 3) Test all grounds to ensure that you are using a proper Ground. If using a electrical socket for Ground, use a socket tester, such as Radio Shack 22-141 4) Buy a copy of the National Electrical Code Guide and follow it.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES APPENDIX B: QoS QoS Tranzeo Wireless Technologies’ software takes full advantage of technology to ensure a consistently high quality on-line experience through the use of powerful Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms. The key to making this applicable in a WISP environment is the Intelligent Stream Handling, a patent-pending algorithm which autonomously manages the flow of traffic going to the Internet, without the need for user configuration.
QUICK START GUIDE – TR-6000 SERIES Automatic Classification High Priority Rate Matching High Priority A process called "rate matching" determines the bandwidth of the broadband uplink automatically so that it can shape the traffic to smooth the flow between the router and the Internet. This eliminates the potential bottlenecks and delays that can be caused by "bursty" data traffic.
