4.3 NETWORK INTERFACE
Maestro requires a network connection to your FLEX-6000 radio. This connection can take one of
two forms:
A wired connection using the RJ-45 Ethernet port on the back of the Maestro. This
connection can take two forms
o A “point-to-point” connection between the Maestro and the FLEX-6000 transceiver
using a single Ethernet cable. In this configuration, the Maestro and the radio set
up a two-node ad hoc network and communicate across it.
o A connection through an Ethernet switch. Many configurations are possible, but
typically the Maestro is connected to a port on the switch, and the FLEX-6000
transceiver is connected to a similar port. A third agent, such as an ISP-supplied
router-modem connected to the same Ethernet switch provides IP addresses to the
network components via a DHCP service.
Note: When a Maestro “A” and B” are operated on battery power, the wired
Ethernet port is disabled.
A WiFi (wireless) connection using the built-in wireless adapter. On start-up, Maestro will
attempt to make a WiFi connection using information from earlier sessions, or if no
recognized network is available, Maestro will present the Choose a WiFi Network screen
showing available networks. Select a network by tapping its name, then tapping the
Connect button. You may be required to enter a password to access the network.
o The Maestro “C” is compatible with WiFi6 (802.11ax) and below.
o The Maestro “A” and “B” are compatible with WiFi5 (802.11n) and below.
