The following is a summary of the wireless system programming
required for a local or remote connection. This programming is
performed on the wireless system's Administration Terminal, and
should be recorded in the Programming Record of the Remote
Access Device Installation Guide. Programming must be completed
at the customer site before you can use CDS. Refer to the Remote
Access Device Installation Guide if you require more detail on RAD
programming. Refer to the wireless system documentation if you
require more detail on wireless system programming.
Note: A RAD cannot be programmed if an RS232 cable is connected
to its serial port. Ensure that the required RAD programming
has been done before connecting the RS232 cable to the RAD
serial port.
Note: The System ID must be programmed for the RAD before you
can proceed. Refer to the Remote Access Device Installation
Guide for instructions on how to program the System ID for
the RAD. The RAD password defaults to the System ID.
