2.9.5 Weak Link Trouble Reporting
The SWIFT Network uses two paths of communication for each device. To establish the link between devices as a viable communication
path, the signal strengths must meet the limits provided in Section 2.3. The SWIFT Network implements a higher threshold for primary
connections to provide an extra layer of robustness and immunity from interference. A weak link trouble condition is initiated for any
device that does not have at least one connection at the primary threshold. This is an optional setting that can be disabled to ignore the
weak link trouble condition. The trouble can be disabled at the gateway.
