1 Introduction
The service tool for the S6000 radio series MF/HF devices is made available by a built-in
web server in the radio. The service tool can be accessed from a computer connected to a
LAN shared with the device and is displayed in an internet browser with no additional
installation of software required. Currently we do not guarantee full support for
Microsoft Internet Explorer, but most HTML5 enabled browsers are supported.
Screenshots in this manual were done using Google Chrome.
1.1 Precautions using the service tool
WARNING: While using the service tool the network cable should not be removed
or disconnected from neither the PC nor the radio.
WARNING: While using the service tool, power to the radio should not be switched off.
Violation of the precautions above can result in a defect radio, which only
can be repaired by the manufacturer.
WARNING: The Service agent is responsible for all changes made with the service tool.
Changes must be in conformance with radio specifications and regulations.
2 Connecting to the service tool
2.1 Connecting to the service without a network
The service tool for the radio can be accessed directly without use of a network, by use of
a PC with automatic network configuration and an internet browser. Connect the radio
to the computer using the Ethernet interface and type the IP address of the radio in the
address field of an internet browser to access the service tool. This will open the radio
status page of the service tool and the radio can now be configured. The radio’s current
IP address is visible in the SYSTEM SETUP menu on the radio control unit or in the
radio’s entry in the TMA tool as seen in Figure 1 below.
2.2 Connecting to the service tool through a network
The service tool can be accessed through a LAN from a PC with an internet browser.
Type the IP address of the radio in the address field of an internet browser to access the
service tool. This will open the radio status page of the service tool and the radio can now
be configured. The radio’s current IP address is visible in the SYSTEM SETUP menu on
the radio control unit or in the radio’s entry in the TMA tool as seen in Figure 1 below.
