identifier). For example: rfconfig rf5.0 freq 5260 bitr 130000 sid 01010101. To learn your
device’s radio module capabilities type the command: rfconfig rf5.0 capabilities.
5. Set one unit as Master (mint rf5.0 –type master) and the other one as Slave (mint rf5.0 –
type slave) so that the units can establish a connection with each other.
IMPORTANT:
Choose the frequency attentively. The frequency should be the one your
radio link is working on.
Antenna alignment
Install antennas as high as possible over specific level. Proximity of other antennas should be
avoided (at least 2 meters). Consider reflecting surfaces (building with reflective windows, water
surfaces or wet grounds). When installing antenna over water surface, one should tune height
bracket within 1-3 meter range variation, because it can yield signal level variation from
minimum to maximum.
To obtain the best performance results, it is necessary to perform a precise analysis of a LOS
conditions, signal propagation path zone and possible obstructions that may cover a part of the
1st Fresnel zone. Possible obstructions on the signal propagation path are neighboring
buildings, trees, bridges, power lines.
Antenna polarization must be taken into consideration while installation. In most cases Omni-
directional and sector antennas have a vertical polarization. Directional antennas can be
installed either with vertical or horizontal polarization. Please check a corresponding labeling on
the antenna and address to the antenna technical documentation.
Recommendations for antenna alignment: align antennas using optical equipment (binoculars,
spyglass) accompanied by mobile phone actions coordination, use GPS receiver and area map.
These features allow evaluating current channel/signal quality and perform precise antenna
alignment. To achieve the best link quality on the radio link use “Spectrum Analyzer” and “Ltest”
