1. Click
Administration
, and then click
Base Station
.
Ensure that the base stations are deployed correctly and all have the synchronization type
Radio
before using automatic configuration. For more information, see
chronization Type" on page 210
2. On the
Base Stations
page, select the relevant group of base stations to be synchronized
from the
AutoSync
list.
You can either select
All
, or (if using sites) select a specific site.
l
If using sites, with only up to 256 base stations each, all base stations on all sites are auto-
matically radio synchronized, when selecting
All
.
For more information about configuring sites and assigning base stations to a site, see
"Configuring Sites (and Zones)" on page 175
.
l
If not using sites, all base stations (if maximum 256 base stations) within the coverage area
are automatically radio synchronized, when selecting
All
.
When selected, click
OK
to confirm.
The system now starts measuring signal strength and signal quality of each base station (and
signal strength/quality between base stations) to find the best synchronization chain. The sync
master is also automatically defined as a result of these measurements. Depending on system
size, this can take a while (up to 15 minutes).
Caution:
Be aware, that if using automatic synchronization of base stations, all current base
station settings will be overwritten. A backup of the Spectralink IP-DECT/Virtual
IP-DECT Server is always recommended, if you want to return to manually cre-
ated synchronization chain.
Normal operation of the system in the selected coverage area is NOT possible, dur-
ing auto synchronization, as all base stations will be offline during measurement.
Other coverage areas/sites will not be affected during the auto synchronization.
3. When the system has finished the automatic radio synchronization, the base stations are auto-
matically rebooted.
The result of the measurement/synchronization and overview of each base station's sync
source is displayed on the
Base Stations
page, under the
Sync Source
column. Clicking on
a specific base station, it is possible to see the RSSI values of the base stations that the selec-
ted base station is synchronizing on (
