ALIGN THE SUBSCRIBER MODULE

Display the Alignment Page
The Canopy Subscriber Module has to be aligned with the Canopy Access Point for proper
operation. Other than the alignment procedure described below, no special setup or configuration
is required for operation.
1. Verify that the AC adapter's Ethernet "pig tail" is plugged into your computer's Ethernet
port.
2. Open up a web browser.
3. Enter the default web URL (http://169.254.1.1) for the Canopy Subscriber Module. If
the unit is properly installed, the Status web page will display on your monitor.
4. Choose "Alignment" from the menu on the left-hand side of the Status page.
Align
1. In the "Alignment" page (FIGURE 6) click on the button labeled "Enable Alignment Mode
ON".
2. This displays an LED bar graph of the signal strength.
3. While this graph is displayed on your computer monitor, an identical bar graph also will
display on the LEDs located inside the Canopy Subscriber Unit Base Cover (FIGURE 1).
4. The colors in the Bar Graph have no significance other than to display signal strength. The
more positions (LEDs) that are displayed, the stronger the signal is.
5. Disable the alignment mode by clicking on the button labeled "Disable Alignment Mode
OFF". NOTE: The Alignment mode automatically changes back to Operation mode after
15 minutes.
6. In the Canopy Subscriber Module, check to see that the SYN/1 LED (second from right) is
not intermittently blinking. If it is, slightly rotate or move the Canopy Subscriber Module
unit till the LED is lit continuously. Go back to Step 1 if necessary.
7. Tighten the Canopy Subscriber Module permanently at its mounting location, and replace
the Base Cover onto the unit
8. Installation and alignment of the Canopy Subscriber Module is complete.
