This section will outline the procedure for enrolling the Mobitex
radio onto the network. This section will also outline additional
features and functions that are to be added to the MLR-MX in
order for the receiver to operate correctly.
Sure Signal CSR Mounting
The following are guides for help placing a radio unit.
Location of the Antenna
The antenna should be placed in a location that will give a
signal strength of 80 to 100%. This will have to be flushed out
more completely when an antenna kit has been put together.
Location of the Sure Signal CSR Host
The radio host should be mounted on a wall that is away from
directly behind the receivers. As well, the radio host needs to
be within the required distance of the DRL-MX in order to
connect the RS232 cable between the receiver and the radio
host. This mounting location will also require ready access to
the drop through location of the antenna cable. Maximum distance
is 100 feet.
Changing Networks
There may be another network which you wish to use for a
radio that is currently operating, or for other radios that are to
be installed. In order to change the current provider for the
radio that requested the Network List. Once the provider has
set up the service the following steps will have to be followed
in order to change networks. Using the programming mode at
the CPM2, request a Network List. The following steps need to
be followed in order to check the network that is currently
being used, a list of the networks available and the attempt to
change networks.
At the CPM2, enter into programming mode.
Select the line (radio) that needs to be changed from the current
network to a new network.
Network options
•2C: current network request
In the code section, a nonuser number needs to be entered.
The MLR-2E will send a request network name to the radio.
The radio will respond with the current network name.
The printer will then print:
L11- Cantel
L11 is the receiver and line number; Cantel is the current
network.
Note: This network name does not need to be saved in the
MLR-MX.
•2D: request network list - print list to printer
In the code section, a nonzero number needs to be entered.
The MLR-MX will send a request network list to the radio.
The radio will respond with the reply network list.
The printer will then print:
L11- (01) Cantel
L11- (02) Bell
L11- (03) BCBell
L11- (04) SackBell
•2E: change network – enter number of the requested network,
or 00 in order to exit the section without changing the network.
When a nonzero number is entered, the MLR-MX will send
a change to other network to the radio.
The radio will respond with the current network name.
If 00 is entered, the receiver will request the network name
Once the programming mode has been exited, or a network
has been selected, then the network list can be removed
from RAM.
DRL-MX Displays
The two displays that are on the DRL-MX display boards will
be fully utilized. The top display indicates the status of the
Mobitex radio host that is connected to the receiver. The bottom
display will only be used to indicate received signals from Sure
Signal that are using the Mobitex radio network.
Top Display
The top display is used for displaying the host radio MAN, the
radio signal strength, as well as any trouble conditions that
occur during operation. The radio signal strength is taken out
of the radio status.
The following is an example of how the top display will appear,
under normal operation.

In the example, the radio signal strength is 45%, and the
network was detected when the radio last communicated a
radio status to the receiver.
Bottom Display
The bottom display gives the information of the inbound
transmissions from the Sure Signals. The Sure Signal will be
the account number in decimal, for format type 1, that will be
displayed, and then the SIA event after. Inbound format type
2 will have an account number in the MPAK payload. Also,
the line card that the DRL-MX is assigned as will be displayed.
The following is an example of how a received transmission
will be displayed on the bottom display.

In this example, this DRL-MX is receiver 1, line 1 to the CPM2.
The Sure Signal MAN, and account number, is 5004454, and
the event occurred on partition 1, and the event was a [A] key
alarm.
This display will follow the regular options of a line card display
on a regular MLR-MX.
