4.7 Replacing a Radio

Any number of environmental hazards could destroy an existing radio. When this happens,

replace it using the following instructions:

1 Identify the radio that needs to be replaced.

2 When the radio was initially configured for the point-to-point backhaul, a label was

attached to the radio indicating which configuration file was used. Make a note of the

configuration label (for example, 12:A-P12).

3 Duplicate the configuration label and attach it to the replacement radio using the same

information and color.

The following example label indicates a radio configured for the following:

Ɣ Radio pair 12

Ɣ Access Point

Ɣ Pole 12

4 Locate the corresponding configuration file (for example, 12-AP.cfg) and upload it to the

replacement radio according to step 4 on page 73 through step 13 on page 76.

5 Mark the faulty radio is so that it does not work its way back into the spread.

6 Replace the radio on the pole.
