Installation of the DockLINK does not require the use of tools, and no configuration is needed in the DockLINK for
operation. If your site uses RadioLAN SubNet ID codes, or encryption, then the DockLINK will need to be
configured before operation.
To Test the Antenna Placement
If you sense the DockLINK connected device is not operating properly, you may need to review the location of the
antenna. This can be done either using the DockLINK Manager display to show the signal quality, or with a
RadioLAN equipped computer in the area running RadioNET Manager software.
If you use the optional serial cable onto the DockLINK, you may also use the Node Discovery Menu (see NODE
DISCOVERY MENU on page 80) in the DockLINK to study and adjust the antenna location, and show the statistics
on either the Ethernet, or RadioNet side. Errors on the Ethernet side of a DockLINK would be very unusual, and
indicate a problem with the cable. Errors on the RadioNet side may indicate the antenna location is not correct.
