Signal Strength (RSSI):
The current signal strength (Received Signal
Strength Indicator) in dBm. The graph to the right of this field shows the
signal strength relative to 100%.
VSWR:
VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Radio) represents the degree with
which an antenna is matched to the radio system impedance. The typical
commercial standard for maximum allowable VSWR across the entire
bandwidth of a system is 1.5:1. This means that the antenna impedance must
be somewhere between 37.5 and 75 Ohms. A VSWR of 2:1 or greater is
usually considered unacceptable (for receiving purposes only) since it
increases losses in the transmission line.

"Firmware" is the program that runs in a RadioLinx Frequency Hopping Radio
that allows it to communicate and exchange data with other radios. Different
versions of the firmware communicate with other radios in different ways, and
provide different levels of functionality.
In order for your RadioLinx Frequency Hopping Radio to communicate with other
radio devices, all radios on the network must use the same firmware version.
