Chapter 5: Configuration Channel Tab Power Up Channel When this parameter is enabled (checked), the 7530 begins communicating on the channel specified in the Channel Number parameter when the unit is powered up. This setting may prevent the migration of 7530s to the same channel due to uneven coverage in some sites. If this parameter is disabled (unchecked), the unit will continue communicating on the same channel that it was on before it was powered off.
PAGE 168
Chapter 5: Configuration Channel Tab before searching for a new channel. If Channel Switch Speed is set to “Fast”, the current channel is only monitored for up to 2 time-out periods before channel switching begins. Important: “Fast” switch speed is most effective where coverage areas are largely overlapping. If the coverage areas barely overlap, have dead spots, or if the 7530 frequently operates on the fringe of coverage, this parameter should be set to “Slow”.
