PWR LED
Technical descriptions RRC-1258
(updated 09-09-15)
Green light is indicating normal status. When the green LED is flashing the unit is trying to connect to the Internet. Normally it only takes a few seconds. If STUN are used it can take up to 60 sec. As long as the LED is flashing, connection can NOT be done.
USB-interface. Not used today in this application.
The RS-232 port on the front is used for IP- settings , check status and debugging etc. RS-232 port is connected to a PC with Hyper Terminal etc. The parameters are fixed. From firmware v1.36 it can be used as a transparent serial port for Rotator control etc. (Configuration need to be done)
38400 Baud, 8 bits, No parity, 1 stop bit. for Configuration interface.

Back / Connectors etc.
Some models are equipped with a extra RS-232 com port witch is connected in parallel "logical" with the serial data port in the AUX connector on the front. The port is used to connect to PC or radio with RS-232 port. The communication parameters is set via the internal web. The control side RRC is equipped with a female connector witch makes it possible to connect a straight RS-232 cable. to the PC.

A short press on the reset switch will reboot the unit. By pressing and keep the button pressed for 20 sec the unit reset to factory default settings.
Default IP-address: 192.168.0.227 (Control RRC )

Default Net mask: 255.255.0.0
In the I/O connector is 2 inputs and 3 outputs, 8V and GND available ( see below). The connector is used for transferring CW signals from the paddle. In the future the outputs will be controlled from the internal web, the inputs status could be checked via the internal web. The relay connected to pin 4-5 is not mounted it's options, it can be mounted by the user. The output transistor FDV301 can sink max 200mA, please install a external relay if it's not strong enough.

Via the internal web can mode for Ethernet port be selected. The different modes are: 0=Auto, 1=10HDX, 2=10FDX, 3=100HDX, 100FDX. Default is 0=Auto. In 10 MBit/s mode only short packages are sent every 20 ms, these bursts can be picked up by the mic signal if the cabling is not done properly. This is heard as a weak 50 Hz ( 8kHz sample) or a 100 Hz (16 kHz sample) hum. If you use 100 MBit/s it's no risk for this kind of trouble because in100 MBit/s mode data is sent continuous over the Ethernet cable and the risk for lf-detection is very small. However 100 Mbit/s networks in common can produce interference of HF often heard as carriers on 28 MHz band (ex. 28.500). So please always use shielded TP cables at least at the radio site.
