RF Configuration
This menu allows for the selection of the frequency characteristics of the radio and can be accessed
from the main configuration menu by selecting menu option “1”.
Menu for 100 MHz band operation:
Option “5” is the desired RF power output. The power is dynamically adjusted to maintain this value as
conditions change. If the load does not permit this power setting, then the power is automatically
adjusted to its maximum value. Additionally, thermal monitors continuously measure the output
amplifier of the radio and can reduce the power level if the temperature rises above a predefined set
limit.
Option “6” is the distance between the master unit and the farthest slave (or repeater) unit that is
connected to the master. This sets the delays for receiving an ACK from a slave and generally slows the
network down as the distance increases.
The RF transmit power sets the power as measured at the connector. This value must be set by the user
to be the within the allowed level based on regulatory limits with the appropriate antenna attached.
Transmit Power
This parameter specifies the desired transmit power in milliwatts.
Current value = 500 mW
