Preparing the laptop

IMPORTANT: Ensure that your laptop has its IP address set to operate within the same subnet as the radar sensor

Factory settings

  • The IP address (e.g. 192.168.0.1) of the radar sensor is preset before leaving Navtech Radar Limited according to client specifications and will be declared on a label attached to the outer casing. 
  • The subnet mask of the radar sensor is often preset to 255.255.255.0 but could also be set wider (such as 255.255.0.0) if requested. Therefore, if the sensor IP address is 192.168.0.1 and the mask is 255.255.255.0, then your computer must use an IP address in the range: 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254.

Connecting your laptop or computer 

You can connect your computer at any point along the signal link from the radar sensor, either directly into the sensor mounted socket, at the pole mounted enclosure (if the signal link is joined there) or at the far end of the link where it will join the RPU (Radar Processing Unit) system. Note: The sensor can be powered on or off while connecting and disconnecting the network link.

The network controller within the radar sensor is autosensing so that you can use either straight through or crossover cables and it will adjust its operation accordingly.


To connect your computer

  1. Connect a link cable between your computer and the network port, either on the sensor or elsewhere along the signal path.
  2. Ensure that the radar sensor is powered on and is rotating - you can faintly hear the rotor when it is running.
  3. Use SPx Radar View application to display the radar data. See Using SPx RadarView.
