User’s Manual Quick Start Guide To create a point-to-multipoint system, you need one AW58300HTA Access Point and one or more AW58300HTS Subscriber Units. We recommend connecting and powering up the units on the bench before deploying in the field because it is much easier to troubleshoot problems and to adjust the configuration if necessary without having to climb poles to do it. - Page 4 If you think that the IP address of the radio has been changed, you can find it using a utility available from the AvaLAN website. Go to www.avalanwireless.com and find the “Downloads” tab under the “Support” menu. On the Downloads page you should find the AW58100 IP Finder Utility.

4. The AW58300HTS units have dual element high gain (23 dBi) directional flat panel antennas. The AW58300HTA unit has two antennas that are omnidirectional in the horizontal plane. It is important that the AW58300HTS antennas be pointed toward their Access Point AW58300HTA. Because the 3 dB beamwidth of the flat panel antennas is just 8°, careful aiming is very important −... -
