USER’S MANUAL ADDENDUM

Matched Pair Bridges

Certain AvaLAN radios are sold as matched pairs, pre-configured as a wireless Ethernet

bridge. The manual supplied with the pair does not include information about the pair

configuration, hence this addendum.

This addendum applies to these products:

AW900xTR-PAIR

AW2400xTR-PAIR

AW900iTR-PAIR

AW2400iTR-PAIR

AW900xTP-PAIR

AW2400xTP-PAIR

The pair configuration as shipped from the factory consists of these features:
1. One unit of the pair is configured as an Access Point and the other is configured
as a Subscriber Unit.
2. The Access Point is given the IP Address 192.168.17.17.
3. The Subscriber Unit is given the IP Address 192.168.17.18.
4. User-specified encryption keys are disabled and the two radios are keyed to
each other using the “Auto-Key” method.
5. RF Channel selection is set to automatic mode.

If these configuration parameters work for you in your system, you need only to connect

antennas, power and LAN and the pair should work transparently, looking just like an

Ethernet cable.

If you need to change any of the pair’s parameters, you may use the browser interface as

described in the accompanying manual. You might need to do this if you need to set the

pair to a particular channel, or you wish to provide your own encryption keys. If the default

IP Addresses won’t work in your system, the best way to change them is by using the

ipfinder utility described in the manual and downloadable from www.avalanwireless.com.

In case of difficulty, you may find additional help under the Support tab on our website or

by contacting AvaLAN Technical Support using the information in the manual.
