Setting up a Transceiver
Note: Once Setup mode has been invoked in HyperTerminal, the process of exiting Setup mode
involves pressing the Escape (Esc) key several times, allowing the transceiver to connect to the
network. Otherwise, cycling the power is the alternative way to exit Setup mode.

Note: Do not “hot plug” radios to cycle power as this may cause damage to the circuitry and render the
radio unusable.
The following section describes in detail how to use all of the Setup menu options to edit the operational

Operation Mode
The Operation Mode option designates the method FreeWave transceivers use to communicate with
each other. FreeWave transceivers operate in a Master to Slave configuration. Before the transceivers
can operate together, they must be set up to properly communicate.

can operate together, they must be set up to properly communicate.
In a Point-to-Point configuration, Master or Slave Mode may be used on either end of the communication
link without performance degradation. When setting up the transceiver, remember that a number of
parameters are controlled by the settings in the Master. Therefore, deploying the Master on the
communications end where it will be easier to access is advised, but not necessary.
