- | ====== Quick Start ====== | ||
- | |||
- | This section aims to guide a user through the main steps of the configuration of the SPN firmware. | ||
- | In this quickstart, the user will start with a freshly installed software with no configuration and end with an endpoint device sending data to SPN. | ||
- | |||
- | Prerequisites: | ||
- | * SPN is already installed on an iFemtoCell | ||
- | * The SPN license file of this iFemtoCell | ||
- | * The iFemtoCell is connected to a network with a __DHCP server__ and a __DNS server__ | ||
- | * Chrome is used to connect to web interface | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ===== Web interface login ===== | ||
- | The home web interface is accessible at the following address: | ||
- | ''http://klk-wifc-XXXXXX/'' | ||
- | Where XXXXX are the 6 digits at the end of hostname/board id . | ||
- | |||
- | Example: | ||
- | The address to be used with the iFemtoCell owning the following label is: ''http://klk-wifc-03002e/'' | ||
- | |||
- | {{ :wiki:label_ifemtocell_v1.0.jpg?nolink&400 |}} | ||
- | |||
- | * Connect to the web interface | ||
- | |||
- | //The default login/password are://\\ | ||
- | user: ''spn''\\ | ||
- | password: ''spnpwd'' | ||
- | |||
- | ===== License installation ===== | ||
- | Installing the SPN software is not sufficient to use it. It also needs to be activated with a license file. | ||
- | |||
- | * Go to the ''License'' tab under the ''Administration'' menu. | ||
- | * Either click on the panel and choose the license TXT file or drag and drop it. | ||
- | |||
- | //A valid license file contains 32 hexadecimal characters// | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Password update ===== | ||
- | For security reasons, Kerlink strongly advise its customers to change the default password. | ||
- | |||
- | * Go to the ''Station'' tab under the ''Administration'' menu and change the password. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Regional parameters configuration ===== | ||
- | The region where the station will be used needs to be configured. | ||
- | |||
- | * Go to ''Region'' menu and choose your region. | ||
- | * Validate the modification with the ''save configuration'' button. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Rx configuration ===== | ||
- | The iFemtoCell cannot listen to every frequency simultaneously. Up to 8 frequencies can be listened. | ||
- | The frequencies to be listened need to be configured. | ||
- | |||
- | To understand how the frequency configuration works, it is necessary to know that the station’s hardware contains two RF frontends. Each of these frontends has a 0.8 MHz Bandwidth. Thus, all 8 channels must be contained within these two 0.8 MHz intervals. | ||
- | |||
- | //Not all the channels are necessarily used.// | ||
- | |||
- | Example of typical configuration: | ||
- | {{ :wiki:typical_rx_config_v1.0.png?nolink |}} | ||
- | |||
- | //All 8 frequencies can be contained within one 0.8MHz interval.// | ||
- | |||
- | {{ :wiki:one_bandwitdth_rx_config_v1.0.png?nolink |}} | ||
- | |||
- | * Go to ''Rx Configuration'' menu and choose your region. | ||
- | * Enter the center frequencies of both frontends. | ||
- | * Enter the frequencies that your endpoint device uses. | ||
- | * Validate the modification with the ''save configuration'' button | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Endpoint device registration ===== | ||
- | Before receiving data from the endpoint device, it first needs to be registered. | ||
- | |||
- | * Go to the ''manage endpoints'' tab under the ''Endpoints'' menu. | ||
- | * Fill the information of your endpoint. //If you are not in Europe, you will probably have to use the ''Override default Rx parameters''// | ||
- | * Validate the endpoint device with the ''add endpoint'' button | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Data reception==== | ||
- | The (basic) configuration is over. | ||
- | * Go to the ''Received data'' menu. //You can refresh the received packets with the refresh button at the bottom right corner of the page.// | ||
