RF Output Power
(User Review Recommended)
—Set RF power
output level. Displayed in dBm. Setting should reflect local reg-
ulatory limitations and losses in antenna transmission line.
(
See “How Much Output Power Can be Used?” on Page 110
for information on how to calculate this value.) [20–30; 20]
•
Data Rate
(
Remote Only)
—Over-the-air data transmission rate
for this remote. Remotes can operate at different data rates when
communicating with a common Access Point. 115.2 kbps data
rates are possible with strong RF signal levels (> –79 dBm RSSI
including a 15 dB fade margin). Data throughput will be
reduced in the presence of interference due to retransmissions.
The data rate value for Access Points is displayed as
AP.
This
shows that the AP is varying the communication speed with
each Remote depending on the received signal strength from
each station. [115.2, AUTO; AUTO]
•
Dwell Time
—Duration of one hop on a particular frequency
in the hopping pattern.
Dwell Time
should be set to 32.8 ms.
(This field is only changeable on an Access Point. Remotes get
their value from AP upon association.)
[16.4, 32.8, 65.5, 131.1, 262.1 msec; 32.8]
TIP:
If a packet is being transmitted and the dwell time
expires, the packet will be completed before hopping to the next
frequency.
•
Beacon Period
—Amount of time between Beacon trans-
missions (msec).
Available Intervals:
Fast
(52 ms),
Normal
(104 ms),
Moderate
