3 Setting up the System
3.1 Initial settings for an MCU
3.1.1 Mobile PTP and PTMP system
1) A mobile point-to-point or P2MP system should contain at least 2 units.
2) In a system one MCU will be a master and at least one should be set as slave (P2P), or more
(P2MP).
3) Setting up a Master/Slave is done by burning the relevant ZIP file (Mobilicom will provide
both Master and Slave Files) (MC-EMA will support such configuration in the future)
4) After setting up Master/Slave the unit can be boot up and set up the rest of the parameters via
the EMA.
5) The rest of the parameters are set as a part of the profile customized for a client.
6) All these stages are typically done in the lab prior to shipment enabling easily plug-and play
by the customer (typically attenuators are connected to the RF ANT jacks in a basic unit
configuration without antenna). Nevertheless, this procedure can be done after installation as
well.
3.2 Installation
1) The MCU-100 can be installed in two ways:
o Installed using the 4 peripheral mounting holes
– mainly used on large surfaces such as
walls, car top or ceilings. Schematics can be supplied by Mobilicom
o Installed using the back mounting holes via mounting arm (such as MT-120018/A)
–
mainly used on poles. Schematics can be supplied by Mobilicom.
2) Antennas installation:
The antennas should be as close to the MCU-100 as possible and can be connected to it
directly into its ANT powers #1 and #2.
3) Cables should be chosen according to their attenuating (best ones should be chosen) and
flexibility (according to the path they pass through). Each cable should have TNC-Male
connector on one end and connector matching to the antenna on the other (most common are
N-Type Male/Female). Recommended cable standards can be supplied by Mobilicom.
7) Before powering up the MCU-100 the antennas should be connected to it (alternatively
attenuators can be connected to the RF ANT jacks for basic setups).
