Web page Management

• ViulinxPro Dual band has web page management interface. Directly connect PC to air unit/ground unit by Ethernet cable, set PC IP address as 192.168.199.33/24, and visit 192.168.199.18 (air unit)/192.168.199.16 (ground unit) through web page.

Manage Air Unit Status

• Baseband status, there’s detailed real time information like RSSI, SNR, Tx Power, LDPC stats, telemetry stats, etc.
• Status Device information, there’s information of SN and firmware version,
• Config Net settings, this is IP address of unit itself, it can be changed as per user’s request.
• Config Radio settings, there are options of auto/antenna1/antenna2 for air antenna select, and options of 2.4G/5.8G/2.4G&5.8G for band select, band select must keep the same as ground unit. Transmitting power can be set for 2.4G/5.8G independently as per user request.
• Config Bind setting, The bind process can be triggered by clicking bind instead of the physical bind button.
• Config System settings and restore unit to factory settings by enabling
• Upload Upload, browser and select file to be upgraded first, then click send to trigger the process.

Manage Ground Unit

• Status Baseband status, there there’s detailed information like RSSI, SNR, TxPower, LDPC stats, telemetry stats, etc.
• Status Device information, there there’s information on SN and firmware version, etc.
• Config Net settings, are the IP address of the unit itself, telemetry destination IP address, and UDP ports, all of these parameters can be changed as per user request.
• Config Radio settings, there are hop, frequency, antenna selection, band selection and transmitting power can be set.
• When hop is auto, user do not need to/cannot set frequency, system dynamically selects the best frequency to use by itself, in other words, when hop is manual, user can set frequency manually.
• There are options of auto/antenna1/antenna2 for air/ground antenna select, and options of 2.4G/5.8G/2.4G&5.8G for band select, band select must keep the same as air unit.
• Transmitting power can be set for 2.4G/5.8G independently as per user request. Hop/Frequency/Work region/Air antenna select only can be changed when radio link between air unit and ground unit is securely established.
• Config Bind setting, bind process can be triggered by clicking bind instead of physical bind button.
• Config System settings, baud rate for U1/U2 two serial ports can be set independently. When QAM mode is set as adaptive, unit will dynamically change modulation scheme based on real time signal quality. Role of pilot has bi directional transmission while observer only has downlink data.
• Upload Upload, browser and select file to be upgraded first, then click send to trigger the process.
