Configuring a Single Exciter
The computer’s IP address should be in the same subnet as the Exciter.
1. Connect the Exciter to the same LAN as the computer running the tool.
2. Under the Single Exciter tab, enter the Exciter’s IP address.
3. If, before configuring it, you want to check whether the Exciter is in working
order, click the Check Status button.
4. Do one of the following:
 If you wish to modify the Exciter’s range while configuring it, select the Use
new info radio button and click the Retrieve button. The value appears in the
Range fields. If necessary, change the Range values.
This operation also retrieves the Phase value. The phase should not be
changed unless instructed so by AeroScout Support.
 If you want to keep the values already configured (set via AeroScout System
Manager or AeroScout Network Exciter Manager), select the Use
preconfigured phase and range radio button.
5. Click the Configure to Slave button.
It is assumed that the listening port of the Exciter is the default 1511. If the port was
changed, it should be restored to 1511 (using AeroScout System Manager or
AeroScout Network Exciter Manager).
