2 Commissioning
draft
2.1 Before commissioning
Before Lite system become operational, initial configuration steps need to be carried out first. And
the Commissioning wizard is recommended to be executed pr ior to the har dware inst allation on site.
The Lite system can be accessed by the Web Browser on a PC, such as Google Chrome (28.0 or
higher), Firefox (26.0 or higher), IE (9.0 or higher). If Firefox or IE is to be used, Adobe Flash Player
plug-in has to be installed first. (To download Adobe Flash Player, go to website http://
get.adobe.com/cn/flashplayer/.)
Before logging into the Lite Web interface, the network configuration of the PC must be set as
Figure 1. We suggest setting the PC IP address to 192.168.255.1 and subnet mask
255.255.255.248. This IP address is used to access Lite when the management PC is directly connected to Lite system. By default, the private IP address of Lite is 192.168.255.3 and the subnet
mask 255.255.255.248.

2.2.2 Setting the management IP
Go to Configuration > Management > IP tab (see Figure 4). The public management IP address
and local management IP address are to be set.
INFO
Don’t use IP address from 192.168.254.96 ~ 192.168.254.99. These 4 IP addresses are
reserved for internal use.

2.2.4 Setting the radio parameters
This operation should be done from both the passive and con trol ends of the lin k and chann el selections should match to ensure the link comes up when properly aligned. Before setting the radio
parameters, ensure that the correct radio standard is licensed for the geographic location where the
radio is to be installed. For example: FCC for USA or Canada, ETSI for Europe and Asia, etc.
It is also important to verify that the correct maximum speed required is licensed, as per the link
design specified for the radio in this location.
Steps
1. Go to Setup > Commissioning tab (see Figure 6) and click Next Step.
