Link Distance [Miles or Km]: Distance between systems.

RF Status [Error Code]: An error code indicating the condition of the system RF

components. See the RF Status Error Code Table 24: RF Status Error Codes on

page 74 for details. Code zero is normal.

Ethernet MAC Address: MAC address of this terminal.

IP address: IP address for the this terminal

IP Subnet Mask: IP subnet mask.

Default Gateway Address: IP address of the default router / gateway.

Ethernet LAN Statistics:

Rx packets: Number of non-errored packets received.

Rx packets - Discarded: Number of errored packets received.

Tx Packets: Number of Ethernet packets transmitted.

Wireless Statistics:

Received Signal Strength: Min: Minimum RSSI measured since the last screen

refresh.

Received Signal Strength: Mean: Average RSSI measured since the last screen

refresh.

Received Signal Strength: Max: Maximum RSSI measured since the last screen

refresh.

SINADR: Average signal to interference, noise and distortion ratio measured since

the last screen refresh. The ratio is based on the digital information provided from the

output of the A/D converter, and includes the effects of the AGC.

Rx Packets: Number of wireless packets received over the air from the remote-end

terminal.

Rx Packets: Retransmitted: Number of wireless packets retransmitted from the

remote-end terminal.

Rx Packets: Discarded: Number of wireless packets originating from the remote-end

terminal received over the air with errors due to degradation in the RF link.

Tx Packets: Number of wireless packets (including Ethernet frames and error

correction bytes) successfully transmitted over the air by the local terminal.

Tx Packets: Retransmitted: Number of wireless packets retransmitted over the air by

the local terminal. The retransmission scheme is based on the Automatic Repeat

Request (ARQ) algorithm that detects when packets are lost, and makes a request to

the MAC scheduler to repeat transmission of the lost packets.

Tx Packets: Discarded: Total number of transmitted wireless packets discarded by

the remote-end terminal, due to degradation in the RF link.
