Configuring the radio interfaces
Edit the SSID
To change the SSID of a radio interface, enter the new SSID in the SSID/network name
text box and click OK. The SSID may contain a maximum of 32 characters. Associated link
units should be configured to use the same network name in order to communicate.
Set the Operation mode
Use the Mode combo box to specify whether the interface will operate as an AP/Master or a
Station/Slave.
Channel selection
Use the Channel selection combo box to select an operating frequency for the link
connection (AP/Master mode only). The radio channel frequency is expressed in MHz. At
802.11a channels use only automatic channel selection. In Station/Slave mode this
selection is not effective.
Dynamic frequency selection (DFS) is always enabled in ASN-700/800 products as a basic
setting. Keeping channel frequency setting in automatic mode assures that this feature is
functional.
Set transmit power
Use the Radio tx power combo box to set the transmit power. The radio transmit power
directly affects hop length. Do not exceed the maximum EIRP (effective radiating isotropic
power) power (EIRP = tx power - cable loss + antenna gain), which is limited by the local
radio authority.
When using external antennas, the cable loss should also be taken in account. Use the
Radio tx power combo box to select your desired power level and click the OK button.
Data rate
Using the Data Rate combo box, you can set a constant data rate. If “best” is chosen, the
link unit will always use the best possible data rate.
