License Screen
Use the License screen to register the license for the RDL-2000. The license feature
controls the band settings based on regulatory requirements (e.g., ETSI, FCC, etc). See
the Band setting in section 3.5: Advanced Screen on page 24. Without a license file
installed, the default settings are: 10 MHz channel, 5.8 GHz band, and DFS enabled.
Before entering a license file, the RDL-2000 is operating in a restricted mode and allows
operation only in the 5.8 GHz band. License files are created using the MAC address of
a specific RDL-2000 unit, and the license will be accepted only by an RDL-2000 having
this MAC address. This operation requires a system reboot.
Important: The RDL-2000 must be rebooted at the end of this procedure. This function
should be performed only during installation or a scheduled maintenance window.
License File: Name of the selected license file.
Browse: Click this button to use the system file browser to locate the file on a PC or
network drive. The operator may also drag & drop the file on this screen.
