Displays the real-time receiver levels (for both the local and remote units) in dBm and a visual
approximation using a series of symbols (
#
). The more symbols (

) displayed, the stronger the signal.
Real-time receiver levels are displayed within ±5 dBm accuracy and can vary with extreme temperatures.
If the link is down in either direction and remote end data is unavailable,

Allows the transmitter levels (for both the local and remote units) to be adjusted. The current transmitter
level is displayed in dBm or a visual approximation using a series of symbols (
#
). The more symbols (

Reducing the transmitter power of the remote TRACER could cause the RF link to drop,
requiring a technician to increase the transmit power by using the menu system at the
remote site.
