Installation
The MR-S2 is designed for ease of installation and configuration. Once the unit has been removed
from the packing container, please follow these instructions:
Step Procedure
1 Place the MR-S2 on a flat surface with free-air flow where the LEDs can be clearly
observed with unrestricted access to the rear panel of the unit.
2 It is suggested that the coaxial connection to the Low Noise Block (LNB) NOT be
connected to the unit until the unit has been fully configured. If the unit will not be
powering the LNB, it is recommend that an F-Type DC Block be installed on the input to
the MR-S2’s L-Band input
3 Connect the DC power connection to the connection labeled PWR on the back of the unit
and tighten the restraining nut to ensure secure operation.
4 Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable (patch cord) to the port labeled ETHERNET. This cable
should be connected to an Ethernet concentrator (hub) or switch.
5 Connect a terminal cable (supplied) to the port labeled TERM. This cable should be
connected to a PC’s serial port (DB-9) to initially configure the MR-S2.
6 Connect the AC power cord between a standard wall outlet and the power supply. The
Blue LED will illuminate.
