CHANNEL PLANS 

 
Using the PC configuration software, the WSN can be programmed with a number of standard 
channel plans.  These currently include all UK MPT1411 or MPT1329 channels. Further 
standard channel plans may become available in later releases of the configuration software.  A 
mixture of channels from different channel plans can also be entered discretely using the 
software.  
 
The following tables show the channel numbers and associated frequencies for various channel 
plans:-
