Tx Power [dBm]: Enter the transmit power level (dBm). This setting is for the
transceiver output only. The actual EIRP depends on the gain of the connected antenna
(see section 6.3: Certified Antennas on page 55).
Important: In some regions, the maximum operational power per channel for a specific
antenna is limited in accordance with regulations specifying the maximum allowable
EIRP levels. Refer to the FCC and CE notices in this manual.
See Table 2: Web - Max. Power (in dBm) and Modulation to determine the maximum
transmit power level available at each modulation setting. When ATPC is enabled, the Tx
power will be automatically adjusted to achieve optimum performance.

DFS Action: Select the mode of operation for DFS.
Important: Where DFS is required by regional regulations, this function is
permanently enabled at the factory and can not be disabled by the installer or end-user.
The system set to master-mode monitors for interference from radar devices and other
equipment using the same channel frequency. When interference is detected, the system
automatically takes the action selected using the drop-down menu:
None: The DFS function is disabled.
Tx Off: Transmission is immediately disabled when radar signals are detected. This
action is recorded in the message log and an SNMP trap message is sent (if SNMP
enabled).
Following an interval of thirty minutes, the same channel is monitored for one minute
and if there are no DFS triggering events, the system resumes normal operation. If
DFS trigger conditions are still detected, operation is suspended for an additional
thirty minutes. This cycle continues until no DFS trigger events are detected or the
operator manually reconfigures the system.
Chg Freq: Relocate transmission to an alternative frequency immediately when radar
signals are detected. This action is recorded in the message log and a trap message is
sent (if SNMP enabled).
The new channel is selected based on allowable frequencies for the regulatory region
of that installation. The channel is monitored for one minute before the system is
allowed to transmit. If DFS triggering events are detected, the next available channel
is selected and monitored. The system is not allowed to return to a channel on
which DFS trigger events were detected for a period of thirty minutes. If DFS trigger
events are detected on all channels, operation is suspended until the thirty-minute time
interval expires for at least one channel.
