Installation Manual

To replace an existing RAD with a different RAD model:
1. Follow steps 1 through 4 above.
2. Using the Mongoose Tracker software, view the configuration for the Mongoose. Since you have
installed a different RAD model than was there before, you will see an error for the port on which
this RAD is connected. You can either load a new configuration file that contains the new RAD
or manually change the configuration of the device to reflect the new RAD model that you just
installed.
3. If you have made changes to the existing configuration, save the configuration to a file (for
safekeeping).
TASK 5: VERIFYING AND FINALIZING THE INSTALLATION
You’ve installed all the hardware and have loaded the configuration settings into the Mongoose. You’re
almost finished. All that is left is to verify everything is configured correctly, audio is working properly,
and to save the final system configuration to a file.
Verify the RAD Configuration
At this point, you have already viewed the RADs’ status indicators to verify they are functioning properly
and that the proper RAD models were installed if the Mongoose was pre-configured. Although these
status indicators provide valuable information, you can glean even more information from within the
Mongoose Tracker.
Note: If you do not have a configuration file, you may want to create a simple verification configuration
so you can test that the installed devices are working properly. See "Creating a Verification Configuration"
on page 31 for details.
To verify the RAD configuration:
1. In the Mongoose Tracker software, view the configuration for the Mongoose you are verifying.
(Click Discover to open the Device Discovery dialog box. Click the Open/Edit button for the
Mongoose you want to view.)
2. Verify that the RADs are connected and configured properly. Look at the list of numbered RAD
ports on the left side of the Mongoose Tracker screen. Are all the boxes green? If so, congratulations!
Everything is A-OK. If, however, you see a smattering of red or yellow, you have a little extra
troubleshooting work to do.
