INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION
5.1
UNPACKING
Prior to unpacking, inspect the exterior of the shipping container for evidence of damage during transit. If
damage is evident, contact the Carrier immediately and submit a damage report. Carefully unpack all
items, taking care not to discard packing materials, particularly the moulded foam inserts. Should the unit
need to be returned to Paradise Datacom, USE THE ORIGINAL PACKING CARTON. This is the only
approved shipping container that Paradise recognises.
5.2
VISUAL INSPECTION OF EQUIPMENT
Once unpacked, visually inspect the unit for damage. The shipping carton in which the Modem is shipped
has been used by Paradise to ship our products worldwide for a number of years. It has shown, through
experience, that it can withstand very rough handling. Therefore, if the equipment received is damaged,
there can be no doubt that it has been subjected to abnormal or abusive treatment - please file a claim with
the Carrier immediately and then contact Paradise Datacom. Assuming, however, that the equipment has
been received in perfect condition, proceed with the installation of the equipment.
5.3
INTERFACE OPTIONS
Unlike previous Paradise products this unit is fitted as standard with an interface that is AN INTEGRAL
PART OF THE MODEM main board, DO NOT TRY TO REMOVE THE CARD. Customer specific interface
options are available, but these require the standard interface to be `snapped off` and a connector soldered
to the board before the modem can accept other standard Paradise interface cards.
Note if fitting the additional G.703 options (T1 or E1) that there are links and switches on the card, and
these should be set BEFORE the card is installed.
5.4
IF INTERFACE
Connect the appropriate cables to the Transmit IF and Receive IF connectors at the rear of the unit. Output
power level can be controlled using the front-panel menus. The optimum input level for the demodulator
is -45dBm ±15dB.
5.5
POWER UP
At power up the unit performs an initialisation procedure, which lasts approximately 3 seconds. If the unit
was previously operational, it will enter operating mode. If the unit was previously non-operational, then the
main menu will be displayed. During the power-up phase, the unit will display the product number P300 with
a V & S suffix indicating the presence of the Viterbi and / or Sequential codec, plus the unit serial number.
The user should then select SETUP, INITIAL CONFIG, (to define every parameter prior to operation), later
changes to the configuration are made with the CHANGE option. The Status screen cannot be selected
unless SETUP, INITIAL CONFIG has been performed.
