Troubleshooting and Tips6.1 Best PracticesThis section provides some tips on working with the equipment.6.1.1 24 Ah BatteriesIn order to maintain the best possible communication channel, observe the following tips:Place a fully charged 24 Ah battery on the backhaul every day.(90-0012) Keep extra 24 Ah batteries charged up at the staging area.Store 24 Ah batteries at the staging area when not in use. Deep discharging of the batteries can shorten their lifespan considerably.6.1.2 PoEWhen temperature swings are extreme, or weather is severe, store the PoE boxes in the recording truck at night.To ensure a protected connection, be sure to use an Ethernet cable with a protective shell (65-0051) when connecting Ethernet cables to the PoE (see Figure 3–8 Protective Ethernet Connector on page 38).6.1.3 Urban EnvironmentsThe following could impact your configuration in urban environments:You may need to use repeaters when crossing a road.You may need to extend the antenna with coaxial cableYou may need to adjust WRU placement and antenna strength when crossing a road.You will need to consider the presence of power lines and buildings when placing WRUs and backhaul components.CAUTIONDo not allow the PoE battery to remain connected at a voltage of 22V orless. Damage to the equipment could occur.

Troubleshooting and TipsTroubleshooting6.1.4 Ethernet CablesUse CAT6 enhanced quality cables. To ensure a protected connection, be sure to use an Ethernet cable with a protective shell (65-0051) when connecting Ethernet cables to the PoE (see Figure 3–8 Protective Ethernet Connector on page 38).6.1.5 AntennasWhen placing or selecting antennas in, consider the following:In areas where there is a steep inclination, smaller gain antennas may provide a better signal. In areas where there is a steep inclination, try to reduce the inclination by going up or down at an angle rather than straight up or down.Use repeaters to cover overpass and steep inclination situations.If you need more signal strength, use an extender with a riser to elevate the antenna. This is the typical scenario with the BSU at the backhaul location.6.2 TroubleshootingTBD 6.2.1 Fluidmesh RadiosTBD Table 6–1 Troubleshooting Fluidmesh RadiosProblem SolutionsNot communicating • Try sending a ping command in a CMD window to the IP address of the radio. • If you are trying to connect directly with a computer, make sure you have configured a private network (see “Create a Private Network” on page 46).• Ensure that you have configured the radios as follows:- FM1100 = mesh POINT (remote backhaul)- FM3100 = mesh END (central backhaul)Cannot access GUI If you configure two FM1100 radios on the same mast to be a mesh POINT and a mesh END, they will communicate over the switch and lock everything else out of the communication loop. They must both be configured as mesh POINTsGUI not responding It takes one full minute to see the alignment statistics in the Fluidmesh GUI (from the browser), so be sure to wait for it.
