I set mine to low when I install them due to that same post I've seen over the years. Josh Luthman 24/7 Help Desk: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 On Mon, Sep 21, 2020 at 11:00 AM Larry Smith wrote: > We had to set the sensitivity (sp?) setting on all

Re: [AFMUG] Generator power supply questions

Before the UPS units were plugged in, it ran just fine. Once they were plugged in it sounded like it was struggling/running out of gas - this was resolved by closing the choke a little bit. Do you think that's a frequency problem? 110vac at the UPS. I didn't measure what was coming out of the g

Re: [AFMUG] Generator power supply questions

We had to set the sensitivity (sp?) setting on all our APC UPS to medium (drop from default of HIGH) or they would not accept the generator current (would stay on battery). -- Larry Smith lesm...@ecsis.net On Mon September 21 2020 09:43, Ken Hohhof wrote: > 110v at the generator or the other end

Re: [AFMUG] -48 noob questions (mikrotik)

Aviat radios don't bond + or - to the chassis. You can run them at -48VDC or +48VDC. On Mon, Sep 21, 2020 at 10:45 AM Steve Jones wrote: > So, like on these aviats, my contractor says they're -48v, but the > connector in the radio bonds to ground. Does that mean my whole site has to > have -48v

I should have said -- at least the WTM4200 and WTM4800, both of which I have used. On Mon, Sep 21, 2020 at 10:59 AM Josh Baird wrote: > Aviat radios don't bond + or - to the chassis. You can run them at -48VDC > or +48VDC. > > On Mon, Sep 21, 2020 at 10:45 AM Steve Jones > wrote: > >> So, like

Re: [AFMUG] EPMP and Nested DHCP Option82

K..  Possibly, Drop one of the option 82 on the Closest Ap to the server. Check the firewall settings int he 1K devices to be sure nothing is being dropped. Sounds like a broadcast isolation issue or some kind of security measure turned on by default.. We used to run in to this with the 1k devi

Re: [AFMUG] -48 noob questions (mikrotik)

If the equipment you're looking at (Aviat in this case) bonds + or - to the frame/chassis it means your job just got more complicated. If the rest of your equipment is floating, you might be OK, but more likely, some or all of the other equipment will be negative

Re: [AFMUG] EPMP and Nested DHCP Option82

That is the correct layout. Wouldn't enabling DHCP Below sub just be if there was a DHCP Server on the 1K system? DHCP Works, it just randomly stops working, and rebooting the EPMP1k AP brings it back. I saw this one other time when I tried to enable Option 82 on an FSK AP. Same things hap

Re: [AFMUG] -48 noob questions (mikrotik)

So, like on these aviats, my contractor says they're -48v, but the connector in the radio bonds to ground. Does that mean my whole site has to have -48v or just radios powered by that particular psu? On Mon, Sep 21, 2020, 8:59 AM Ken Hohhof wrote: > Now if we could get the manufacturers to be le

Re: [AFMUG] Generator power supply questions

110v at the generator or the other end of the 175 feet of 10 AWG wire? And total load is 5-6 amps each including the UPS charging the batteries? What kind of UPS? Something like an APC will have a relatively low charging current, other setups may be quite a bit higher. I know our Alpha UPS

Re: [AFMUG] Generator power supply questions

I would guess your frequency was high and that may have bothered the ups. Dropping it lowered the freq and the voltage both. 110 volts is ok. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 21, 2020, at 8:23 AM, Josh Luthman wrote: > >  > So Friday we have another 3 phase go down in the building. They unplugg

[AFMUG] Generator power supply questions

So Friday we have another 3 phase go down in the building. They unplugged it all so that wing had nothing. As a precaution I start up the generator. When they're cutting the other phases we are using I move it to the generator. The generator complains and the UPS units don't switch over. I dro
