ESTeem Software Suite

The ESTeem Software Suite is a collection of software utilities for the programming, monitoring and troubleshooting of the ESTeem radios.

This stand-alone utility update does not use Java and requires no additional downloads

Release Date = May 15, 2024
Version – 20240502135802

Discovery Utility – The Discovery Utility will display all ESTeem radios connected to the computer’s Ethernet connection regardless of their current IP address. This utility will allow modification of the modem’s IP address to the network of the computer for further configuration through a Web browser or product utility. The Discovery software can be used for software updates and contains a utility to display all remote receive signal strengths for quick antenna alignment.

Horizon Network Manager – The ESTeem Network Manager is a software program designed to greatly simplify the configuration of your ESTeem Horizon wireless Ethernet network. The Network Manager program will allow graphical, point-and-click configuration of your network routing and then configure each ESTeem radio for the network as designed. The program will eliminate the need to program or update each ESTeem wireless modem individually. The Network Manager will also actively monitor the radio network and display received signal strengths (RSSI), RF data rates and Mesh routing.

195 Narrow Band Configuration Utility – Programming ESTeem Narrowband radios such as the 195M, 195H and 195C radios.  195 Narrowband Configuration utility that is used for all programming and troubleshooting of radio. This utility is used for setting the frequency, PLC emulations, diagnostics and has a built-in spectrum analyzer.

Edge 900 Configuration Utility – The configuration utility for programming, troubleshooting and a spectrum analyzer for the Edge 900 MHz radio is contained within the ESTeem Discovery Suite. This utility will be launched automatically when you select to configure an Edge 900 MHz radio.

Modbus Monitor – A stand-alone utility for monitoring the Modbus registers in any ESTeem radio. 

Serial and MAC Lookup – Used for finding the serial number or MAC address of the ESTeem radio.

Spectrum Analyzer   – A direct link to the spectrum analyzer utilities in both the 195 Narrowband radios and Edge 900. This utilities is also accessible through the configuration utilities of each model.

Throughput Test – This advanced diagnostic utility feature will test the over the air throughput of the Horizon radios. This throughput test is also accessible though the Discovery Utility.

Installation

The ESTeem Software Suite installation file is in a compressed ZIP file (downloadable from above). When asked to Open the File or Save to Disk, select Save to Disk. Place the file in its own directory on your hard drive, open the Zip file and run the executable program to begin the installation.

Legacy Java Based ESTeem Network Suite (ENS)

Horizon Models – Horizon 900, Horizon 2.4, Horizon 4.9 & Horizon 5.8

Programming

The ESTeem Network Suite (ENS) is a software program designed to greatly simplify the configuration of your ESTeem Horizon wireless Ethernet network. The Network Suite program will allow graphical, point-and-click configuration of your network routing and then configure each ESTeem radio for the network as designed. The ENS program will eliminate the need to program or update each ESTeem wireless modem individually.

Monitoring

We’re pleased to announce that the ESTeem Networking Suite (ENS) software for our Horizon series of industrial radios now incorporates a real-time monitoring utility.

This new function will display the key operating features of the wireless network:

• Received signal strength values from both sides of the wireless link• RF data rates• Wireless connection status (connected/disconnected)• Mesh network status, which details which links in the wireless network are being used

These critical networking details have been available in the Horizon series through Modbus/TCP tags in each radio, but this data is now displayed in the same configuration file used when programming the radios.

The application requires two (2) additional support files to operate:

Java – Downloadable from  http://www.java.com. The version required will be based upon your operating system.Note: The installation and updates from Java may try and install additional web browser toolbars. Uncheck the optional installation if they are not desired.
