Deployment Deploy the radios on the poles, and cabling - Align them approximately to see each other. (Even 5km distance, the radios can be seen under clear weather condition) - Telescope will be useful for the first step. - Power and signal cablings must be done before the alignment process. There Note : are polarization mark ‘H’(Horizontal) and ‘V’(Vertical) on the radio. Make sure both radios are deployed as the same polarization. COMOTECH CORPORATION 3-7 Installation 3-7-2. Alignment Fix one of the radios (let’s say ‘A’) and start aligning the other side (let’s say ‘B’) by reading Digital Voltage Meter. (A sheet of voltage levels is provided with the radios) - ‘A’ must not move at this point, and ‘B’ should find the best point. - Full scanning will be necessary for the first time. (Below is a way of full scanning) - There could be no movement on voltage level at first time. Fix the ‘B’ at the best point and start aligning ‘A’. - Do the same procedure as No. 2. 3-7-3. Fine tuning When the point of level movement is found, start fine tuning one side by one side. - Tune the radios one by one until the voltage level reading gets to similar value to the provided chart at the distance. DO NOT ALIGN BOTH RADIOS AT THE SAME TIME. IT Note : MAY CAUSE CONFUSION. ONE OF THEM MUST BE FIXED DURING THE ALIGNMENT. When the radios reach certain levels, carefully fix them. - Try not to make any movement during the fixing job. ** NOTE: Get information about altitudes of both radios from GPS before starting alignment. It’s hard to recognize where the 2ft antenna is facing, especially vertical. Use angle meters to make sure they are not heading to the sky or the ground. COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-1 Web-based GUI 4. Web-based GUI (Management) 4-1. Introduction NTE1GQ serves as the fully integrated modem module of a point-to-point radio system designed for millimeter band operation. Key features and functions are as follows: ▶ Major Functions Ö Ethernet transport via standard 1000BaseT RJ-45 user port Ö Configurable BERT mode operation Ö Configurable QPSK, 16-QAM, 32-QAM, 64-QAM modulation Ö Configurable Forward Error Correction Modes (heavy and light) allows trade-off between capacity and link sensitivity Ö Automated Coding and Modulation for maximum throughput given available conditions Ö Total capacity (Ethernet + BERT channel) up to 1 Gbps Ö Web GUI management Ö In-band management channel allows web GUI management of far-side terminal Ö PoE 802.3at compliant DC power interface COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-2 Web-based GUI 4-2. Setup and Operation To setup a link for operation, proceed with the following steps at each terminal: 1. Connect the power connector to an external DC power supply (or alternatively connect an external PoE injector to the ODU’s RJ-45 jack) to energize the ODU system. Boot-up takes about 90 seconds. a. DC supply voltage range in -42.5 to -57V b. Power Connector is keyed, as shown in Figure 2-2. Ensure that the minus (-) terminal of the power supply is connected to the pin on Figure 2-2 as shown. Reverse polarity protection circuitry is present. 2. Connect the RJ-45 network port (or PoE injector data port) to a host computer (laptop or desktop) or to a LAN switch. Make sure that the computer’s network settings are consistent with the default network settings of the ODU’s system. The default ODU network settings as shipped from the factory are as follows: • IP Address : 192.168.70.98 (Unit-A), 192.168.70.99 (Unit-B) • Mask : 255.255.255.0 • Gateway : 192.168.70.1 It will in general be necessary to change the ODU’s network setting from their default before proceeding to establishing a ODU Link. If the management computer and ODU are to be connected directly (not over a routed network), refer to Section 4-3 for specific instructions on properly configuring the ODU and the computer network settings. 3. Start a browser on the laptop or computer and enter the IP address of the ODU into the URL field. • Factory default ODU IP address is: 192.168.70.98 (Unit-A), 192.168.70.99 (Unit-B) When both ends of the link have been configured with compatible configurations, acquisition is automatic on both sides. 4. Login to ODU • User ID (admin) / Password (admin) 5. Select the Transmitter Power and Frequency Channel in GUI RF Tab 6. To run the modem transmit I/Q offset calibration click the “Run Calibration Procedure” link and follow the instructions. Proper calibration is required to obtain the best possible link performance. COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-3 Web-based GUI 4-3. Management Interface Network Configuration 4-3-1. ODU Network Configurations The ODU supports manual (static) network configuration settings (DHCP is not supported at this time). All ODU are factory configured with default static network settings as stated in Section “Setup and Operation”. These static Network settings can be changed by modifying the Network Configuration field on the Ethernet tab of the GUI interface. If the ODU is to be connected to a LAN or routed network, the installer should take care to ensure (e.g., via PING) that no other node exists on the network with the same IP address. 4-3-2. Management Computer Configuration The appropriate network configuration settings of the management computer depend on the network environment. If both ODU and host computer exist on a routed network supported by a DHCP server, the laptop may be configured to obtain an IP address automatically, as shown in Figure 4-1 below Figure 4-1 Obtaining an IP Address COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-4 Web-based GUI If the ODU and host computer are connected directly or locally through a simple LAN or unrouted network, the host computer’s Network Settings will need to be configured manually, as shown in Figure 4-2 below Figure 4-2 Configuring an IP Address 4-4. Terminal Management Interface • The ODU supports management over a TCP/IP network via a web GUI. • Network Settings must first be properly configured by means of the Ethernet/Network Configuration page described in “Ethernet Tab” part. Once a link is established between two terminals, both terminals may be managed over TCP/IP from one side of the link, provided that the ODU Configuration (discussed in “Modem Tap” part) includes allocation of Ethernet capacity over the link. • Note that all ODUs are shipped from Factory with default IP address 192.168.70.98 (Unit-A), 192.168.70.99 (Unit-B). The IP address of the ODU – along with other network settings – can be modified from the Ethernet/Network Configuration page of the web GUI (see “Ethernet Tab” part). Configure each ODU to a unique IP address before connecting to a network. 4-4-1. Web GUI and SNMP Interface • The ODU includes an HTTP server that supports full management via a web GUI. The ODU web GUI has been tested with internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, is recommended. To access the ODU, start a browser window, and enter the ODU’s IP address in the URL window. If the IP address for the terminal is unknown, it can be determined by accessing the serial console port as described in Section 2.2. COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-5 Web-based GUI • Note: Although the ODU supports multiple browser sessions, it is strongly recommended that the maximum number of simultaneous browser sessions be limited to 2 or 3. An excessive number of browser sessions can result in sluggish response times under certain conditions. • Once a session is established, after 30 minutes of inactivity, the session is automatically terminated. This feature increases security, and limits the number of active sessions that can potentially overload the Modem CPU leading to sluggish response. 4-4-2.

Configuration parameters are provided in the left pane and are derived either from mainboard configuration or by user entries under the System tab. COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-7 Web-based GUI Figure 4-5 Web GUI Main Status Bar and Link Status Tab 4-4-5. Modem Tab • The Modem Tab, shown in Figure 4-6, presents a modem status and configuration interface. To change the Modem Configuration, select one of the available modem configuration profile sets. Configurations identified with the word “BERT” offer 100% allocation of the channel to BERT traffic. Configurations identified with the word “EHT” offer minimal allocation (<~0.5Mbps) to the BERT channel with most capacity allocated to Ethernet transport. • The selected configuration is enabled and saved to the Modem’s non-volatile memory and by clicking “Apply”. • Warning: do not refresh the browser or click on any buttons or link until the configuration operation has completed. Always change the far side of a link first. The link will drop when the configuration is changed, and in cases when the near-side configuration is changed, the far-side will be unreachable until the link is re-established. If the near-side configuration is changed first, restore it to the prior configuration to re-establish the link, and then change the far side configuration first per the normal process. • The Modem Status panel displays the operational status of the Modem transmitter and receiver. Nominal operation is indicated by OPERATING. ACQUIRING is displayed immediately following link reconfiguration. Pressing the Plot Constellation button displays an ASCII plot of the Demod Symbol constellation in the modem. • The Current Tx Operating Parameters pane displays details of the current Profile of the current Modem configuration. If ACM is enabled and the link is operating normally, the Profile with the highest throughput will be displayed. If ACM is enabled and there is no link COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-8 Web-based GUI established, the most robust Profile will be displayed. • The ACM Configuration pane allows the user to set ACM (Adaptive Coding and Modulation) to be enabled, or a specific Profile can be selected. Figure 5 shows various modulation types and coding levels available for an example modem configuration. Note that disabling ACM is a persistent setting that will be retained after a power cycle and applied at next start up. Figure 4-6 Web GUI ModemTab COMOTECH CORPORATION 4-9 Web-based GUI 4-4-6.

Nominal Mainboard Temperature readings are typically in the range of 20 to 30 degrees above the ambient air temperature around the IDU. Figure 4-13. Web GUI System - Clock / Other Status sub-tab COMOTECH CORPORATION 4 - 14 Web-based GUI Ö System Users Selecting System Users on the System Tab provides an interface allowing the operator to set user passwords, as shown in Figure 4-14. Access on this page is determined by login authentication level. Since the password display is hidden, it must be entered twice to ensure the intended value is captured. Press the Save Passwords button to apply and save changes. User “admin” may modify any of the passwords. User “tech” may not modify the “admin” password. User “public” cannot modify any password entries. Figure 4-14. Web GUI System – System Users sub-tab Ö Asset Tags Selecting Asset Tags on the System Tab provides an interface allowing the operator to define Asset Tag Name and Location, as shown in Figure 4-15. Asset Tags are used solely at the discretion of the network operator to define and track network assets remotely. Also, Asset Tags can be used to assign characteristics at the unit level, such as internal inventory tracking ID, physical location, etc. Clicking on the Save Asset Tags button stores these fields in non-volatile memory on the Modem.
