To launch an MCT on a Wavence SA NE connected to a 7705 SAR

Before you begin

The NFM-P supports an integrated MCT from the port or NE level on the 7705 SAR-8 and the 7705 SAR-18. The MCT is distributed with a NEtO client in the NFM-P. The MCT can be launched from the port that is associated with the MW link in the navigation tree or from the MW Link Member (Edit) form. You can configure radio parameters using the MCT.

Consider the following before you launch the MCT:

  • Java version 1.6 is required to launch the MCT.

  • The MCT is only supported on a Windows client; however, it is not supported on Windows 7.

  • Only one MCT session can be open at a time.

Steps
 

On the equipment tree, right-click on a discovered 7705 SAR-8 or 7705 SAR-18 NE and choose External Element Manager.


Choose the corresponding MW member from the list and click Launch MCT.


Enter your login credentials and click OK. A dialog box appears.

Note: If the client system does not have the required MCT packages, the packages are downloaded from the NFM-P and saved in a third-party folder.


Click Accept. The MCT initialization starts, and the MCT main view screen appears.

Note: If the MCT is not installed on the client system, the MCT installer window opens. After the MCT is installed, the MCT main view screen appears for all subsequent launches, with the MCT version adjusted to the NE version from which the MCT launched.
