User guide
Version 1.33

SATEL-EASy+ radio modem has two serial ports - Port1 and Port2. One of the ports is configured
as the DATA port (by default Port1) that is connected to the user application. The other port is
the NMS port (by default Port2) that is connected to the serial port of the PC running SATEL
NETCO NMS or SATEL NMS PC software.
The easiest way to accomplish the wiring is to use a two-port serial cable (e.g. part code CRS-
NMS from SATEL).
14.3 NMS - Usage
SATEL NETCO NMS and SATEL NMS PC software provide the user interface to NMS system. Refer
SATEL NETCO NMS and SATEL NMS PC User Guide for additional information.
14.4 NMS functionality
SATEL NMS provides useful tools for maintaining the radio network. The following functions are
included in the SATEL NMS system:
o Status of the network can be obtained easily. Received Signal strength (RSSI)
information, Voltage, Temperature and quality of the radio links can be monitored
without disturbing user’s data flow. SATEL NETCO NMS and SATEL NMS PC software
collect statistics on the radio modems of the network.
o Alarms (triggered e.g. by a significant decrease in signal level of a radio link) are
generated for the external system usage.
o The history of the parameters is saved to log files for later examination.
o Remote update of the setup i.e. the settings of a radio modem.
o Data communication tests. A full data communication test can be run to find out
more detailed analysis of each radio link. Whenever needed this test indicate
profoundly the quality of the radio communication.
NOTE: Remote update of the actual firmware of a radio modem is currently NOT supported by
SATEL-EASy+.
SATEL NMS system is subject to continuous development - new features will be introduced to
respond actual customer needs. The radio modems have a comprehensive interface structure
that enables even more complex functions to be added to SATEL NETCO NMS or SATEL NMS PC
while radio modem needs to manage only a limited set of tasks.
