1. General Information about the RV-SMB
1.1 Congratulations!
Congratulations on your purchase of a RV-SMB Network Attached Radio Modem
device. Please take a few minutes to read this manual carefully. The information
presented here will allow you to derive maximum performance from your radio modem
base station. After reading it, keep the manual handy for quick reference, in case
questions arise later on.
1.2 NOTICE
There are no user-serviceable points inside this transceiver. All service work must be
referred to your Authorized Service Center or Raveon Technologies Service
Department.
1.3 Safety / Warning Information
Blasting Caps and Blasting Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off this device when you
are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn off two-
way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Do not install this product for use in areas with potentially explosive atmospheres.
Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in
bodily injury or even death.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as
below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are
often but not always posted.
1.4 Safety Training information
This radio is restricted to occupational use. Work related operations are permitted only
when the radio operator has the knowledge to control the exposure conditions of its
passengers and bystanders by maintaining the minimum separation distance. Failure to
observe these restrictions may result in exceeding the regulatory exposure limits.
2. Overview
The RV-SMB is a 1U rack-mountable (19”) high-speed UHF/VHF network attached
radio modem chassis, with options for redundant radio modems of ½ to 5 watts RF
power output, redundant power supply, and GPS transponder receiver.
The RV-SMB is generally configured for operation as a GPS transponder base, with a
redundant receiver and power supply.
2.1 Features
AC 100-250V, 50-60Hz.
Optional redundant power supply.
Optional redundant radio module, which can be configured in reserve-standby mode (backup radio is powered
down until it is needed) or hot-standby mode (backup radio is always powered).
SENA PS410 terminal server.
Automatic RF output switching.
Dual GPS RF connections, enabling hot-standby of GPS-enabled radio modules.

5. Configuring the RV-SMB
5.1 Overview
The RV-SMB’s SENA PS410 terminal server can be configured via the network
interface, or via the front panel serial console interface. The default configuration
information is listed here:
IP Address: 192.168.161.5
Username: root
Password: root
Console Baud Rate: 9600
Please refer to the Sena PS410 user manual, located at
http://www.sena.com/products/device_servers/hd_ps_x10.php, for additional terminal
server configuration information.
5.2 Terminal Server Configuration Via Web GUI
To configure the terminal server via the web GUI, use a web browser to connect to the
terminal server’s IP address, on port 80. Once connected, logging in at the prompt will
make it possible to change the IP configuration, serial port configuration, and other
settings.
5.3 Terminal Server Configuration Via Telnet
To configure the terminal server via the Telnet interface, open a Telnet session with the
terminal server’s IP address, on port 23. Once connected, logging in at the prompt will
bring up a BusyBox shell. Entering the command ‘editconf’ will start a text-based
configuration menu.
5.4 Terminal Server Configuration Via Serial Console
To configure the terminal server via the serial console port, open a terminal emulator,
set the baud rate to 9600, and connect to the console port with a null modem cable.
Once connected, logging in at the prompt will bring up a BusyBox shell. Entering the
command ‘editconf’ will start a text-based configuration menu.
5.5 Settings Required for Proper Terminal Server Operation
If a factory reset is performed on the terminal server, several settings will need to be
manually reconfigured.
/serial/*1/Port title = Radio A
/serial/*2/Port title = Radio B
/serial/*1/hostmode/Port number = 5001
/serial/*2/hostmode/Port number = 5002
/serial/*1/hostmode/Telnet Support = Enable
/serial/*2/hostmode/Telnet Support = Enable
/serial/*1/hostmode/DTR option = High when TCP/UDP is opened
/serial/*2/hostmode/DTR option = High when TCP/UDP is opened
/serial/*1/parameter/Baudrate = 38400
/serial/*2/parameter/Baudrate = 38400
/serial/*1/parameter/Inter_character_timeout = 20
/serial/*2/parameter/Inter_character_timeout = 20
