User’s Manual AW900mTR Operational summary The AW900mTR Radio Module allows the user to create a long-range, wireless Ethernet network with up to 16 subscriber units per access point. The configuration may include any combination of AW900mTR, AW900xTR, AW900iTR and AW900xTP radios. (Please note that older AvaLAN 900 MHz radios can exist on the same LAN but cannot be used to form wireless links with the AW900mTR because link encryption protocols have changed.

AW900mTR User’s Manual Browser Interface Configuration 1. Digital configuration is done by means of the AW900mTR’s built in browser interface. It should be powered on and connected at least temporarily to a network containing a computer that can run a conventional web browser. 2. Download the AvaLAN IP Discovery Utility from our website and extract ipfinder.exe from the zip archive, placing it on your desktop or in a convenient folder. http://www.avalanwireless.com/ipfinder/ipfinder.
User’s Manual AW900mTR 5. Make note of the chosen IP address and password, then click “Go to Device Web Page.” This will cause your default web browser to launch with the device IP address in the browser address bar. Or you may launch the browser on your own and enter the web page address manually: http://[the IP address you just set]. 6. The browser page that loads first shows the current device information and QoS statistics and provides a login at the upper right.
AW900mTR User’s Manual Despite the warning, you will need to click the “Advanced Admin” button in order to set the device type, ID and encryption key. You should then see a page similar to this: 8. On the Advanced Admin page, set the parameters as follows: • Choose Device Type: Access Point or Subscriber Unit. • For Subscriber Units, assign unique ID numbers in numeric order from 1 to 63. • For an Access Point, enter the number of Subscriber Units that will be communicating with it.

AW900mTR User’s Manual “Easy Key” Configuration In most cases, the browser interface is a better choice for configuring the modules. But they also can be configured as a point-to-point bridge or a point-to-multipoint group using the DIP switches. When this method is used, the module that will operate as the access point provides a unique network ID calculated from its MAC address and a unique random encryption key programmed into it during manufacture.
User’s Manual AW900mTR To add a new SU to the AP, disconnect the AP from the network and power off. Connect an Ethernet cable between the SU and AP. Power up the SU FIRST and then the AP. The SU will receive the key. Disconnect the Ethernet cable and cycle power on the SU to cause the new keys to take effect. To re-key SUs to a new AP, proceed as in the inital setup, making sure to power up the AP FIRST. Technical specifications Characteristic Specification/Description RF transmission rate 1.
