Advanced Settings:
Automatic frequency selection mode
(DIP switches – all OFF for automatic mode)
The AW5800m is designed to automatically select and continuously optimize the performance of its
radio channel. The radio channel is monitored to ensure it is providing low error rates necessary for
successful radio transmission. In the event that the error rate rises, the AW5800m will autonomously
change to a new channel. There are 58 non-overlapping channels.
Manual frequency selection mode
This mode enables the user to restrict the operation of the AW5800m to
a specific channel.
This can
be done by setting DIP switches 3-8 as shown in the table below.

AUTO MODE
Channel #
Tx Frequency
Site survey mode
(DIP switch 2 - default is OFF for normal operation)
In this mode the AW5800m can perform a site survey. With this mode activated the radios send and
receive at 100% capacity by transceiving self-generated simulated data. The installer can monitor the
Link Quality display to assess channel quality while optimizing antennae orientation. The installer
can manually select each channel to evaluate performance and identify the best channels for
operation. By identifying channels with poor performance it is possible to identify possible interferers
and use “manual frequency selection mode” to avoid portions of the band or select a fixed operating
frequency.
Important note:
Ethernet traffic does not get transported while the radios are in this
mode.
LED Display mode
(DIP switch 1 - default is OFF for normal LED display)
In this mode the display LEDs of the Master unit can be turned off for low power applications (solar).
