XTL5000 Radio
A PC running STS can be connected directly to an RTU, directly to a radio, or it can
operate remotely over the CEN.
For an RTU or PC to communicate over the air using an ASTRO IV&D radio, the radio
must be context activated, or registered for data, in addition to the PPP connection over
RS232 interface.
The RTU uses SNMP protocol and sets a value in a MIB variable defined for this radio.
When this succeeds, the radio configuration is completed, and the radio (using the IP
address provided periodically by the GGSN in the infrastructure) is able to receive and
transmit data. If the context activation fails or is deactivated, the RTU causes the radio to
restart (power itself off and on.) Once the radio has been context activated, an RTU (or
PC) can transmit IP frames over the air to the PDR which routes them to the GGSN and
CEN.
