3.3 Configure the Radios

The FMQuadro™ Web Interface is used to configure the radio channels. The radio

licenses are pre-configured by Wireless Seismic, Inc. This section describes how to

connect the radios to a computer and configure them.

Check the radios before connecting them to any switch.

3.3.1 Create a Private Network

Create a private network between the computer and the Fluidmesh radio.

1 Prerequisites:

● Windows computer

● Browser with Adobe Flash

● AC Power

● PoE Injector

● Two Ethernet Cables

2 Power on the computer.

3 Connect the components (see Figure 3–16 Fluidmesh Radio Private Network on

page 47):

● Plug the PoE injector into an AC outlet.

● Connect the computer to the PoE injector with an Ethernet cable.

● Connect the Fluidmesh radio to the PoE injector with an Ethernet cable. The

radio powers up.

► FM1100 – Connect to LAN 1

► FM3100 – There is only one connector

NOTE

The expected configuration in the RT 1000 system is as follows:

FM1100 = mesh point (remote backhaul)

FM3100 = mesh end (central backhaul)

NOTE

All Fluidmesh units are preconfigured with an IP address of

192.168.0.10.

CAUTION

Power up only one radio at a time. Never place two powered-up radios

next to each other. It is possible to damage the radio receivers if

multiple radios are powered up in close proximity.
