The Tx power value sets the transmit power for the highest modulation profile. In case
lower modulation profile(s) has higher max Tx power (based on product’s specs), the Tx
power will be increased automatically without indication in RF configuration menu.
Mode – operational mode of the link:
o
Alignment – Carrier Wave transmission. Used for antenna alignment. No
data over the radio link.
During Alignment mode, the radio records and displays the max RSSI value it m easured
as an indication to the installer, allowing the installer to align the antennas optimally.

o
Static – Fixed modulation profile. If you select Static, you must select from a
list of pre–configured modulation profiles in the Modulation field.
o
Adaptive – Adaptive Bandwidth, Code, and Modulation.
The radio will work on the highest modulation profile based on the CINR
values of the both sides and will present the current modulation profile.
Adaptive mode is the normal and recommended mode of the radio link.
Note:
Adjust Tx Power so the RSSI at the remote end will not exceed -305dBm (overload
threshold).
Refer to the note below (Advanced Settings) regarding short range mode in case RSSI
exceeds -30dBm even after adjusting Tx power to the minimum.
Note:
When exiting Alignment mode, perform system reboot to allow proper operation of
the radio link.
