Radio channel number
For the wireless coordinator, select the channel number to use to configure a wireless
network (PAN) from the channels (1 to 43) given in table 5.5. If there is channel overlap,
radio interference will occur and proper communication may be hindered, so select a
different channel number from that used by other wireless device in the radio range.

The maintenance console has a channel noise scan tool that measures the RSSI value of
each channel. Use this tool to find a channel number not used in the vicinity and assign it to
the coordinator.
In addition, the RSSI value and packet error rate (PER) of a specific channel between two
wireless devices can be measured (communication test measurement tool).
Check the RSSI value and PER for the channel you want to use, and use this information as
reference to determine the installation location of wireless devices and whether installation
of repeater nodes is necessary.
For details on how to use the tools, see chapter 4, “Using the Maintenance Console.”
