Meaning
Scan Channel
Bandwidth Radio
1/2
(Slave Mode
only)
The selected scan channel bandwidths are scanned by the Slave. Any
combination may be selected.
When a bandwidth is selected, a tab for the bandwidth appears and a
listing of all available channels is presented once the tab for the
bandwidth is selected. Each bandwidth tab may contain a number on the
left side. This number defines how many channels have been selected
for that bandwidth.
If no channels are selected for a bandwidth, then all channels are
scanned.
Power Control
Max Tx Power
(Slave Mode
only)
Auto: The Master can control, using ATPC (Automatic Transmit Power
Control), the TX power of the Slave up to the maximum capability of the
Slave’s transmitter (based on regulatory limits).
Manual: The Master can control the TX power of the Slave up to the
value configured in the Transmitter Power field.
Antenna Gain The total gain of the antenna in use by the device. For integrated
devices, this parameter defaults to 25 dBi.
Slave Module
Target Receive
Level
(Master Mode
only)
Defines the desired receive power level at the Master from registered
Slave. Masters use this parameter to control the transmission power of
the Slave in order to reduce system self-interference.
Network Entry
RSSI Threshold
(Slave Mode
only)
This defines the Downlink RSSI threshold below which a Slave will not
register to a Master.
Network Entry
SNR Threshold
(Slave Mode
only)
This defines the Donwlink Signal-to-Noise-Ratio (SNR) threshold below
which the Slave will not register to a Master.
Scheduler
Downlink/Uplink
Ratio
(Master Mode
only)
The schedule of downlink traffic to uplink traffic on the radio link. The
three options, 75/25, 50/50 and 30/70, allow the radio to operate in a
fixed ratio on every frame. In other words, this ratio represents the
amount of the total radio link’s aggregate throughput that will be used
for downlink resources, and the amount of the total radio link’s
aggregate throughput that will be used for uplink resources.
Radio Configuration
Radio 1/2 SSID Indicates the current configured SSID for each radio interface.
