Connecting the GNSS Antenna
Connect a GPS/GNSS antenna system to the GNSS connector (see page 4, rear panel
illustration, item number 7), using the supplied Type-N antenna cable, and an LMR-400
equivalent cable with surge suppressor and active GPS L1 antenna, such as Spectracom
model 8230.
Note the GNSS receiver connection provides 5 V
DC
power for the antenna.
Connecting Power
Plug in both power supplies. (You may hear a fan noise from inside the housing).
Swith the unit on by pressing the ON/OFF button on the front panel. Wait for the device to
boot up.
Once the boot process is completed, only the green POWER status LED should be lit.
CAUTION
If only one power supply is running, and the other one is inserted all
the way, but not plugged in, or defective, VelaSync will emit a long
BEEP, so as to alert you of a problem with the backup power.
Establishing a Network Connection
To communicate with PRISMA Vela Sync without using DHCP, connect a PC with a
configured LAN port via Ethernet cable to the VelaSync server using ETH0. The unit is
shipped with one static IP address: ETH0 = 192.168.1.1
To connect and set up a device using DHCP, connect to an Ethernet port without a static IP
address (any Ethernet port except ETH0). Find the unit on your network by contacting your
network administrator, and log in to the unit’s assigned IP address. Log on to the Web UI
(see directions in the next section).
