System Mode
: The system designated as sector controller establishes and manages
the bi-directional data link with a remote end AN-80i. Only one system in a wireless link
must be set for Sector Controller mode.
PTP Sector Controller
: AN-80i begins transmitting automatically, sends poll
messages to locate remote AN-80i subscribers, and negotiates operating settings for
the link.
PTP Subscriber
: AN-80i waits passively, monitoring the selected channel(s) until
polled by the PTP Sector Controller.
Registration Period
: The polling period for detecting new subscribers. Period is based
on the number of wireless frames transmitted. Permitted values are 1 to 400. The
recommended default registration period is 4.
Max. Distance [km]
: Enter the distance to the subscriber located farthest away from the
sector controller (outer boundary of sector). This parameter is used to optimize
communications with the subscribers.
