• Minimize the length of the power cabling, within reason.
• When power is applied from a power source having a relatively
high (1 or 2
) source impedance, or from a power source
without a large amount of output capacitance, no overshoot
occurs. Therefore, use a power supply that is rated appropriately
for the radio if possible—avoid using power supplies that far
exceed the radio’s current requirements.

STEP 3—CONFIGURE THE AP
The instructions below summarize essential AP settings for tabletop
testing. For detailed AP log-in and menu navigation instructions, see
ACCESSING THE MENU SYSTEM
on Page 36.
Log-in and Configuration
The AP must be configured first, as Remote transceivers depend on the
AP beacon signal to achieve a connected (linked) state.
Figure 2-5
shows the basic setup for configuring an AP with a personal computer.

Connection
(recommended for
first-time log-in)
To configure the AP using a console terminal:
1. Connect a PC to the
COM1
port on the radio.
2. Establish a terminal session (using HyperTerminal, for example)
using the following data parameters:
• 19200
bps
• 8
bits
• no parity
• one stop bit (8N1)
•
hardware flow control
disabled
• VT100 emulation
