If it is a Timing Slave
The backhaul timing slave module will utilize a network accessible IP address for its LAN
IP address. From the factory, the timing slave module is programmed to utilize an IP
address of 169.254.1.1. Continually, the appropriate subnet mask and default gateway
must be utilized for the operator network infrastructure.
The operator must configure the appropriate color code on the backhaul timing slave
module so that it can register with a backhaul timing master module. The color codes must
match. The operator can prevent unauthorized users from connecting to the backhaul module’s
web based interface by assigning a password. There is no default password and password
protection is turned off from the factory.
Passwords can be from 1 to 16 characters. Any combination of characters is allowed, except for
these special characters: “ , . ‘ { } / \ ; : [ ] ( ) ` ~
NOTE: If the operator forgets either the password or the IP address for the module, a Cyclone
default plug can be used to regain access. See Configuration for information on the default plug.
There are two types of passwords that can be configured: display-only or full-access. The display
only password allows the operator to view the module’s current status. The full-access password
allows the operator to view the module’s current status and change its configuration. By viewing
the red lettering to the right of the entry fields, the operator can discern that a password is set.
The operator can enter in information about the Site Name, Location, and Contact. This is
optional.
INSTALLATION OF THE EQUIPMENT
When power is applied to a Cyclone module or the unit reset via the web-based interface, the
module will take approximately 25 seconds to boot up. During this boot up time, power on self
tests and other diagnostics are being performed.
The following steps are needed to install the Cyclone equipment:
Remove the base cover from all Cyclone backhaul timing master modules to be installed.
Remove the GPS sync cable knockout from the base cover with needle-nose pliers.
Mount the backhaul modules:
o The modules can be mounted in a variety of locations, choose the best location
for your particular application. Mounting can be done by utilizing stainless steel
hose clamps or another equivalent fastener.
Route the Ethernet cable from the backhaul module to the cluster management module.
o The Ethernet cables use RJ-45 connectors (standard Ethernet) that connect to
matching ports within the cluster management module.
o A total of 8 ports are available on the cluster management module, to
accommodate a combination of access point modules and backhaul timing master
modules.
Route the GPS sync (serial) cable from the backhaul timing master module to the cluster
management module.
o The GPS sync cables use 6 conductor RJ-11 connectors that connect to matching
ports within the cluster management module.
Replace the base cover on all of the backhaul modules.
