2.3 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.
