Network Parameters
User modifiable parameters are limited to the choice of
MAC Address:
• Factory MAC Address: This is the default MAC
address which is guaranteed to be unique. Unless you
have a very good reason to define your own MAC
address, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you
use the factory MAC address.
• User Defined MAC Address: If you must define your
own MAC address, you can enter it here. If you do not
use a unique value, you may not be able to communi-
cate to your wired network or you may disrupt other net-
work devices. For this reason, it is STRONGLY
RECOMMENDED that you use the factory MAC
address. The MAC address is 12 hexadecimal digits.
You do not need to use delimiters, but you can use
spaces or the colon character.
RF Network Parameters
RF Network Parameters include:
• Fragment Threshold: This parameter defines a thresh-
old above which the RF packet will be split up or frag-
mented. If a packet is fragmented or transmission of
part of it is interfered with, only the portion that was
unsuccessful would need to be re-sent. The throughput
will generally be lower for fragmented packets since the
fixed packet overhead consumes a higher portion of the
RF bandwidth.
