STEP 5: Attach the LTE cellular antennas.

Install the LTE cellular (paddle) antennas on the MAIN and AUX ports.

  • Hold the antenna straight and twist the base to thread onto the connector.

  • Tighten with fingers only (maximum torque not to exceed 4 in-lbs).

  • Do not over-tighten.

  • Once the router is mounted and powered on, angle the antennas for optimal signal reception.

STEP 6: Attach the Wi-Fi antenna.

Install the Wi-Fi antenna on the port marked 2.4/5GHz.

  • Hold the antenna straight and twist the base to thread onto the connector.

  • Tighten with fingers only (maximum torque not to exceed 4 in-lbs).

  • Do not over-tighten.

  • Once the router is mounted and powered on, angle the antennas for optimal signal reception.

Step 9: Active the router in NetCloud Manager.

Activating your Cradlepoint router requires logging into your NetCloud Manager account. Refer to Getting Started with NetCloud Manager for more information.

 
 

Understanding LEDs

image10.png

The IBR200 router uses LED lights on the front panel to communicate various status conditions. Use the table below to verify the status of your router after the 1-minute bootup cycle.

STATUS INDICATOR

BEHAVIOR

image21.png

POWER: The Cradlepoint IBR200 must be powered using an approved 12 VDC power source.

 
image23.png

  • No Light = Not receiving power. Check the power switch and the power source connection

 
image22.png

  • Green = Powered on

 
image24.png

  • Yellow = Attention is needed. Log into NetCloud Manager and use the Remote Connect menu to access the router's local UI to manage the alert.

    • Examples: NCOS is using default password, Wi-Fi is is using default PSK, endpoint is not registered in NetCloud manager

image31.png

SIGNAL STRENGTH: LED bars indicate the active modem’s signal strength

 
image16.png

  • No Light = Modem is not operating.

 
image13.png

  • 4 Solid Bars = Strongest signal.

 
image14.png

  • 1 Blinking Bar = Weakest signal (a blinking bar indicates half of a bar).

 
image15.png

  • 4 Blinking Bars = SIM door is not installed, modem is off.

image30.png

EMBEDDED MODEM: Indicates connection status for the embedded (internal) modem.

 
image23.png

  • No Light = Modem is not connected.

 
image22.png

  • Solid Green = Modem has established an active connection.

 
image27.png

  • Blinking Green = Modem is connecting.

 
image24.png

  • Solid Yellow = Modem is not active.

 
image28.png

  • Blinking Yellow = Data connection error. No modem connection possible.

 
image29.png

  • Blinking Red = Modem is in the process of resetting.

image22.png

WI-FI: Indicates the Wi-Fi status.

 
image23.png

  • No Light = Wi-Fi is not operating.

 
image25.png

  • Blue = Wi-Fi is on and operating normally (2.4GHz and/or 5GHz)

OTHER

ADDITIONAL LED INDICATIONS

 

ETHERNET PORT LIGHTS: LEDs on either side of each Ethernet port on the backside of the endpoint indicating connection status.

  • Yellow = 10/100 Link/Activity

 

After Initial setup of Cradlepoint IBR200 you will need to log information into the Navori Deployment sheet. To make the process easier take a photo of the unique identifiers on the router, you can copy and paste info into Navori deployment sheet from photo. After unique identifier is determined in Navori for media player that is being paired with the router you will need to change the info in net cloud to reflect this info. 


Find router in net cloud and move to assigned group. After moved to group the router will restart. Once router has rebooted you should be able to setup WIFI connectivity between router and media player. Go to settings-add network- (CMSduggal) type of security WPA/WPA2 PSK, password (DuggalCMSClient)
