2. Initial
Radio
Configuration
Below is an outline of recommended settings for the MicroHard IPnDDL, to be set
prior
to
connecting to the Triad RF Systems BDA.
2.1
Radio Output Power
Please be sure to terminate the RF ports on the radio before powering on the radio.
It is recommended to initially set the radio output power to its
minimum value
. This will
prevent any potential damage to the Triad BDA. The ideal radio power will depend on
several factors such as: amplifier gain, data rate required, and amplifier output power.
Consult the Triad BDA specification sheet for linear power output.
2.2
Frequency
Set the radio operating frequency within the range of the Triad BDA frequency range.
Consult specification sheet for frequency details.
2.3
Data Link Distance
Set the data link distance to desired or expected operating distance.
Before powering on the radio, ensure that the RF ports are properly
terminated, or connected to their antennae. Operating the unit with the RF
ports open can cause damage to the radio.
