Redback® 7” Paging Console
1.0 SETUP
The product will be supplied blank, and will need to be congured for use. Where possible, this process is automated (usually
on newer Redback® products), requiring only user conrmation.
If a mistake is made in selection, the process can be aborted and reset at the nal step (step 3 below). To abort the process
continue until given a nal “CONFIRM” / “CANCEL” choice, choose “CANCEL” and re-insert the SD card to try again.
First Use
Connect the paging console to the Redback® master unit. This may be a newer product such as the A 4450 or A 4460 or
an older supported legacy product such as the A 4580 (Refer to the Redback website for compatible products).
System components are connected using “pin to pin” conguration RJ45 data cabling as shown below in gure 1. When
installing ensure all connections are veried with a LAN cable tester before switching any system component on.
A short Cat6 patch lead is supplied for setup if required.
Fig 1
With the paging console connected as per the master unit instructions, power up the master unit.
Step 1:
A number of newer products (eg Redback® A4450, A4460, A 4650) support automatic detection, and this step will be
automatically completed and user interaction skipped where available.
If automatic detection is not available, select the master unit the device is to be used with, from the presented list. If the
master unit does not appear in the list, then it may NOT be compatible or the paging console may require an update. (Check
the Redback website for compatible products and download a rmware update if available). Refer to section 2.0 for rm-
ware updating instructions.
Step 2:
The next step is to select the paging console function. A number of different functional options may be available (e.g. 16
zone paging console or All call paging console), This list is specic to the master product. Refer to master product instruc-
tions for specics of the available functions. Select the desired function from the presented list.
Note: If only one option is available it will be automatically selected.
Step 3:
With the master product and function now selected the unit will present a nal conrmation, including information on the
currently programmed image (if not blank) and the selected image to program.
Select “CONFIRM” to continue or “CANCEL” to cancel.
If the loading is cancelled, the unit will halt until the SD card is re-inserted, and then reset and go back to step 1.
If conrmed, the loading process will begin and a progress bar will show completion.
Once loading is complete, the user will be notied if the loading succeeded or failed. If loading is successful the user will be
asked to remove the SD card.
Once the SD card is removed the unit will start after a 5 second hold.
2.0 FIRMWARE UPDATES
If an update is available for a particular function, download and place the supplied “.bin” le on the root folder of a Micro
SD card and insert into the unit. Reset the system via the paging console menu (Menu->System Actions->Reset, for most
products).
The paging console will reset, scan the micro SD card and nd the update and then present a conrmation screen providing
information on the currently loaded and updated program. Select “CONFIRM” to continue.
The update le will not be deleted from the SD card on completion, and hence can be used to update multiple units.
