• Or turn on the computer and start the terminal session.
6 Connect the power cord to the AirPro Gold unit. See Figure 3-6
Figure 3-6 Connecting the Power Cord
• Plug the AC power cord into the 3-pin connector.
• Plug the 3-prong end of the AC power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
To avoid electrical shock or power loss, make sure that the power cord is
securely connected to the unit. Do not use a 3-pole to 2-pole adapter with the
plug. Verify that the outlet you use is properly installed, grounded, and
complies with the local electrical code.
• Turn the AC power switch to ON. See Figure 3-6.
After power-on the unit will run a power-on-self-test (POST). This test
takes about 40 seconds to complete. Successful completion of the POST
causes the 10-bank
RSSI LEDs on the front of the radio to flicker before
going to a steady state.
If you have successfully connected to the radio, the terminal will display
the
AirPro Gold> prompt and an initial message.
To set up a basic unit configuration:
1 Set the topology. At the prompt, type TPLG <n>
where <n> = 1 - Star Remote, 2 - Star Base, 3 - Peer-to-Peer, or
4 - Point-to-Point
2 Set the channel. At the prompt, type CHAN <n>
where <n> = 1 through 13 (with 5 MHz step)
3 Set the modulation mode. At the prompt, type MOD <n>
where <n> = 1 through 4 (1 = 11CCK, 2 = 5.5CCK, 3 = QPSK, 4 = BPSK)
4 OPTIONAL: Check your settings. At the prompt, type INFO. The terminal will
display information similar to the following:
