4.8 Ethernet Bridge Radio Communication
If the communication system is a wireless Ethernet radio, look for:
• a network card in the computer connecting to a network switch/router.
• a server radio mounted on the building and a client radio at the display.
Note: This system is referred to as Ethernet "bridge" communication because it requires a pair
of matched radios to create a signal connection or bridge.

Connections
• Computer to network − RJ45 cable from computer port into network switch/router.
• Network switch to DC injector - RJ45 cable from network to "DATA IN" jack.
• DC injector power adaptor plugged into 120 VAC outlet.
• DC injector to server radio - RJ45 cable from "P+DATA OUT" to server radio.
• Server radio to client radio - clear line of sight for signal transmission.
• Client radio to display − quick-connect cable from radio to middle jack on display back.
Troubleshooting
Component Check:
Cable
Connections
• A cable connects the computer to the network switch/router.
• A cable runs from the network through the DC injector to the server radio
(max. 300 ft/90m).
• The DC injector is plugged into a 120 VAC outlet.
• A cable runs from DC injector to server radio.
• The quick-connect cable connects from client radio to top jack on display back.
Diagnostic
LEDs
• The DC injector's green LED should be on, indicating power.
• Both radios have internal LEDs; refer to manual for their specifications.
• The same channel LEDs will be on for both radios when locked together.
Display
Power
• The display is either running a message or showing a single pixel flashing in the
bottom right corner of the display when power is on.
Software
• The software is configured for TCP/IP communication.
• The software and the display are set for the same network address.
• Refer to the software manual for other possible conditions.
