WLM
Main Menu Option (0): Set Operation Mode
When item (0) is selected, the Operation Mode Menu appears as shown in figure 2. The Operation Mode option is
used to designate the method in which the particular WLM will be used. The WLM operates in a master to remote
configuration; therefore, any radio modems that are intended to operate together must be set up as such. In a point-
to-point setup, either the master or remote may be used on either end of the communications link. One
consideration when setting up the radio modems is that a number of parameters are controlled by the settings in the
master; therefore, you may wish to deploy the master on the communications end where you will have easier
access to the radio modem.
Figure 2: Mode Menu
Shown below are example settings. Please refer to supplied configuration sheets for your modem’s configuration.
(0) Point-to-point Master
The WLM operates in a master/remote configuration. When designated as a master in point-to-point mode, the
radio modem will call any or all remotes it is instructed to call in the call book. The master determines the
settings used for all Radio Transmission Characteristics (except power), regardless of the settings in the
remotes and/or repeaters.
(1) Point-to-Point Remote
When set up as a point-to-point remote, an WLM will communicate with any master in its call book, either
directly or through one or two repeaters. When functioning as a remote, the Entry to Call feature in the radio
modem’s call book (Figure 3) is not operational. The remote will communicate with any master on the list that
calls.
(2) Point-to-Multi-Point Master
The WLM may be set to run in multi-point mode, which allows one master to simultaneously be in
communication with numerous remotes. A point-to-multi-point master will communicate only with other radio
modems designated as point-to-multi-point remotes or point-to-multi-point repeaters.
(3) Point-to-Multi-Point Remote
Setting (3) allows the radio modem to operate as a remote in a multi-point network.
Please refer to the section entitled multi-point operation, for more information on running a multi-point network.
