3. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MRAD
3.1. SMA connectors on the RF outputs
The SMA connectors should not be removed from the MRAD.
3.2. Before Power On
Before Power On, make sure each RF output is connected to an antenna (via the 50 Ohm
coaxial cable terminated by a N male type plug) or to a 50 Ω termination.
3.3. Power on
LED status after less
than 15 s at power on Meaning Action
Medium intensity Tx permanent mode
(4.125ms/4.125ms) None
Flashing, high
intensity, 5s on / 5s off Tx permanent mode (5s/5s) None
Other Possibly RF parameters
undefined
Configure with the terminal menu – If
no change, power off, and power on
again.
3.4. Disconnecting coaxial cables or antennas
Before disconnecting any 50 Ω termination, coaxial cable or antenna, the MRAD should be

4. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
4.1. Setting the communication parameters
The communication is established with a RS232 link between the computer and the equipment
via a terminal. The RS232 is accessed via the DB9 socket [Figure 1; Figure 2] on the front
panel.
When the terminal is opened on the computer, its parameters have to be defined in the menu
Parameters/communications as following :
Ports = COM1 or COM 2 (depends on which one was put the RS connection)
Transmission speed = 9600
Bits of stop = 1
Stream control = none
Data bits = 8
Parity = none

Notes :
When powered on, the MRAD begins to emit with the previous parameters. If no parameter
was ever entered, there is a warning : “the Tx mode is unknown” and all parameters (Tx mode,
RF output, frequency, power level) must be defined.
During the RF configuration, the MRAD continues to emit.
Each new parameter is applied immediately after input.
