MAINTAINING THE RADIO
The radio does not require any regular maintenance. However, it is prudent to monitor the radio link at regular
intervals to ensure that the link conditions are not changing. When visiting a radio site for maintenance, you
should check the following items and record the results:
▪ RSL voltage
▪ Power setting (NMS)
▪ Far-end RSL voltage
▪ Alarm conditions
Be sure to verify that the unit has adequate ventilation.
If any alarm conditions exist, record them. See “Troubleshooting Alarms” on page 95.
Proxim recommends you review the radio’s Log and Status pages to view whatever alarms and changes in
performance have occurred since the last maintenance interval. Download the log or perform a ‘print screen’
with your computer to keep a record of the performance for your maintenance records.
Proxim also recommends that the antenna system be inspected annually. This inspection should include
inspection of mounting hardware for tightness and corrosion, condition of the weatherseal on all RF
connections, and integrity of ground connections on cable and surge suppressor.
