Bench Test And Configuration - Pre And Post-Power Checks - Motorola PTP 300 Deployment Manual

Bench Testing (Optional) - Connect and Power Up
It is advised that the link be configured and tested on a bench before the final installation of the
units on a pole or a mast. The following steps give details of how to connect an ODU to a PC in
order to check the configuration details, change the IP settings or modify the license key. For
the purpose of these tests, normal off-the-shelf Ethernet cables can be used.
Step 1: Connect the RJ45 at
one end of a cable to the
ODU.
Step 4: Put the cover back
and tighten the screw.
Step 6: Connect a second
Ethernet cable (shown in yel-
low) to the "LAN" socket of
the PIDU Plus.
Step 8: Ensure PC is set to
correct IP address 169.254.1.x,
where 2 < x < 254. Connect
the LAN cable to the PC
(shown here in yellow).
Step 2: Undo the retaining
screw of the PIDU Plus and
hinge back the cover
Step 5: Plug in power lead
using a cable appropriate for
the installation.
Step 7: 30 seconds after powering, the Ethernet LED
should be observed to flash slowly 10 times. If the Ethernet
LED does not illuminate (Orange), then either the PIDU
Plus or the cable to the ODU may be faulty. Replace cable
and/or PIDU Plus and repeat from Step 1.

Step 3: Plug in the ODU to
PIDU Plus Cable ensuring
that it snaps home.
.
NOTE - If the power LED
does not illuminate, re-
move the power cable
and the ODU connection
from the PIDU Plus. Re-
connect the power lead
and check the power
LED illumination (Green).
If the power LED still
does not light then check
the power source.
Step 9: Check that the Ethernet
LED is now ON. Refer to the
Troubleshooting section in this
guide if the LED does not show
any activity when accessing
web pages.
