4. Istruzioni per l'installazione

The CPE881 bridges are designed for simple plug-and-play setup using a dialing pairing method. This section outlines the steps for both Point-to-Point (PTP) and Point-to-Multipoint (PTMP) configurations.

4.1. Point-to-Point (PTP) Setup

In a PTP setup, two CPE881 devices establish a direct wireless link to extend a network connection between two locations.

1. Identificare i dispositivi: Designate one CPE881 as the Ponte Maestro (Transmitter A) and the other as the Ponte degli schiavi (Receiver B).
2. Accensione: Connect both bridges to their respective POE adapters and power them on.
3. Configure Master Bridge: On the Master Bridge, press the A-B button until the digital tube displays 'A'. This sets it as the transmitter.
4. Configure Slave Bridge: On the Slave Bridge, press the A-B button until the digital tube displays 'B'. This sets it as the receiver.
5. Abbinamento: The devices will automatically attempt to pair. Once paired, the WLAN and Signal LEDs on both devices will indicate a stable connection.
6. Connetti alla rete:
   • Connect the Master Bridge's LAN port to your main router or network switch.
   • Connect the Slave Bridge's LAN port to the device or local network you wish to extend (e.g., another router, computer, or security camera system).
7. Allineamento ottimale: For best performance, ensure a clear line of sight between the two bridges and align them directly towards each other. The signal strength LEDs will help in achieving optimal alignment.

4.2. Point-to-Multipoint (PTMP) Setup

A PTMP setup uses one Master Bridge to connect with multiple Slave Bridges, extending network coverage to several locations simultaneously.

1. Identificare i dispositivi: Designate one CPE881 as the Ponte Maestro (Transmitter A) and the remaining two as Slave Bridges (Receiver B-1 and Receiver B-2).
2. Accensione: Connect all three bridges to their respective POE adapters and power them on.
3. Configure Master Bridge: On the Master Bridge, press the A-B button until the digital tube displays 'A'.
4. Configure Slave Bridges: On the first Slave Bridge, press the A-B button until the digital tube displays 'B'. On the second Slave Bridge, press the A-B button until the digital tube displays 'B'.
5. Abbinamento: The Master Bridge will automatically pair with all Slave Bridges set to 'B' mode. The WLAN and Signal LEDs on all devices will indicate a stable connection.
6. Connetti alla rete:
   • Connect the Master Bridge's LAN port to your main router or network switch.
   • Connect each Slave Bridge's LAN port to the respective device or local network at each remote location.
7. Allineamento ottimale: For PTMP, the Slave Bridges must be positioned in front of the Master Bridge. The Master Bridge and Slave Bridges must face each other, and the maximum angle between the Master Bridge and any Slave Bridge should not exceed 60 degrees for optimal signal.

5. Istruzioni per l'uso

Once the CPE881 bridges are set up and paired, they operate automatically to maintain the wireless link. Here are some operational considerations:

• Monitoraggio del segnale: Regularly check the Signal Light LEDs on each bridge. A higher number of green LEDs indicates a stronger and more stable connection. If signal strength is low, consider adjusting the alignment or checking for new obstructions.
• Integrazione di rete: The CPE881 acts as a transparent bridge. Devices connected to the Slave Bridge's LAN port will receive network access from the Master Bridge's network, as if directly connected via an Ethernet cable.
• Prestazioni ad alta velocità: The 5.8GHz frequency band and Gigabit LAN ports are designed for high-speed data transfer. For optimal throughput, ensure your connected devices and network infrastructure also support Gigabit speeds.
• Alimentazione su Ethernet (PoE): The included PoE adapters simplify installation by providing both power and data over a single Ethernet cable, reducing cable clutter.

6. Manutenzione

The AdaLov CPE881 is designed for minimal maintenance due to its robust construction.

• Design resistente alle intemperie: The IP65 rating ensures the devices are dustproof and waterproof, suitable for harsh outdoor conditions. No special weather protection is typically required.
• Pulizia: Periodically inspect the exterior of the devices for dirt or debris buildup. Clean with a soft, damp panno se necessario. Non utilizzare prodotti chimici aggressivi o materiali abrasivi.
• Aggiornamenti del firmware: Controllare il produttore webVisitare periodicamente il sito per verificare la disponibilità di aggiornamenti firmware. Seguire attentamente le istruzioni fornite per qualsiasi procedura di aggiornamento.
• Ispezione dei cavi: Ensure all network and power cables are securely connected and free from damage.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your AdaLov CPE881 wireless bridges, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Nessun potere:
  • Ensure the POE adapter is correctly connected to a power outlet and the bridge.
  • Verificare che la presa di corrente funzioni.
• No Wireless Link (WLAN LED Off/Flashing Red):
  • Check if the Master and Slave bridges are correctly configured (Master 'A', Slave 'B').
  • Ensure there is a clear line of sight between the bridges. Obstructions like trees or buildings can severely degrade signal.
  • Adjust the physical alignment of the bridges to face each other directly. Use the Signal Light LEDs to optimize alignment.
  • Ensure the distance between bridges does not exceed the maximum recommended range (5KM/3.1 miles).
• Low Signal Strength (Few Green Signal LEDs):
  • Improve line of sight by removing obstructions or adjusting mounting height.
  • Fine-tune the alignment of the bridges. Even small adjustments can significantly improve signal.
• No Network Access (LAN LED Off/No Data):
  • Verify that the Ethernet cables are securely connected to the LAN ports on both the bridge and the connected device/router.
  • Test the Ethernet cables with another device to ensure they are functional.
  • Ensure the main router connected to the Master Bridge is providing internet access.
• Difficulty with Point-to-Multipoint (PTMP) Setup:
  • Confirm all Slave Bridges are set to 'B' mode.
  • Ensure all Slave Bridges are within the 60-degree angular range of the Master Bridge and have a clear line of sight.
• Ripristino delle impostazioni di fabbrica: If issues persist, you can reset a bridge to its factory default settings by pressing and holding the Reset button for approximately 5-10 seconds until the LEDs flash. After resetting, reconfigure the device.
