Edge 900 Configuration Utility
The Edge 900 configuration utility will allow programming of the radio for either the Master Bridge or Slave Bridge. Every
network will consist of a single Master Bridge with one or more Slave Bridge radios. The hopping pattern for a unique Edge
900 network is determined by the AES-256 encryption pass phrase set in step 4 of the programing. The following is the
programming procedure for the Edge 900:
Step 1 – Setting Mode of Operation
The Edge 900 will either be configured as the Master Bridge or the Slave Bridge. Every network will consist of a single Master
Bridge and one or more Slave Bridge radios. The network will always be a “hub and spoke” based network with the Master
Bridge in the center (Hub). The first page of the Edge 900 Configuration Utility (Figure 4) will ask if you are programming the
Master or Slave Bridge. Select the mode of operation and press the Next button to continue.
