The main point to remember is that a Child Repeater does not roam while its current
Parent’s RSSI is higher than the current Roam Threshold value. In the case where a
Next Parent radio is not being advertised or the Next Parent radio is on the same
channel, then the cost comparison to determine when to roam only occurs when the
current Parent’s RSSI is below the Roam Threshold. This allows the roam point to be
controlled when a mobile platform travels a known path.

that a Child Repeater radio uses. This
Parent Margin overrides the Child Repeater radio’s equivalent setting, but only while the
Child Repeater radio is associated to this unit. If the Parent radio is not advertising a
Parent Margin, the Child Repeater radio reverts to using its own configured value. See
Configuring Parent Link Settings
(page 90).
