units) in 15-minute increments.

Figure 7. TRACER Link Performance History

The minimum received signal level (MIN RSL) is represented as a numerical value from 0 to 255 with 0

corresponding to no receive power and 255 corresponding to an extremely strong signal. The minimum

received signal level is directly related to RSSI.

Link errors (

LNK ERR) represent errored seconds across the wireless link, and are generally an indication of

path or interference problems.

The error count and received signal level for the most recent 24 hours are recorded and displayed on the

right side of the page. The left side of the page displays the 24 hour totals for the most recent 7 days.
