Step 7 DFS function and channel auto setting
The DFS function automatically avoids radio-frequency interference to Weather radars. The DFS conditions differ, depending on
your location.
NOTE
: Whether or not the DFS function is enabled on a frequency is regulated by the local law, and cannot be disabled by
users.
• The Wireless Bridging is not activated if a channel is used that requires the DFS function or if automatic channel selection is set.
Refer to the PDF instruction manual on the Icom’s website for setting details.
• The usable wireless LAN frequencies and channels differ, depending on your location.
After setting a channel in the setting screen, restart the
➥
AP-90M. The AP-90M will then search for a weather ra-
dar’s signal for approximately 1 minute.
While searching for a signal, [WIRELESS 1 or 2] will blink,
and access to the AP-90M will be paused.
When a weather radar’s signal is detected, the operating
channel automatically changes to a different channel to
avoid the interference.
The DFS function pauses on the new channel, if the chan-
➥
nel does not require the DFS.
