Operations Manual, HPA3, Mini Compact Outdoor SSPA 208143 REV - 25

Units may ship with a RS-232 Quick Start cable fitted with a DB9 connector. See Figure 3-6.

3.2 Quick Start Operation

This section describes the necessary steps to communicate with a Mini Compact Outdoor

SSPA using the Ethernet Quick Start cable and the Universal M&C Software. The Paradise

Datacom Universal M&C Software is a free Windows-based application that can be

downloaded from the company web site, www.paradisedata.com.

Both the Ethernet and Serial Quick Start Cables force the Mini Compact Outdoor SSPA into a

must be saved to the unit. If changes are not saved, the unit will revert back to the state

before the Quick Start cables were used.
