7.7.12 Additional Installation Notes
According to the LINKPlanner report power settings values, some additional steps are
required. These are necessary to ensure that the power levels of the installed units are not
too high.
Higher power levels may cause the saturation of the receivers or may cause false Radar
detection (in Radar Enabled regions) which will cause a degradation of the link performance
and may be responsible for a link failure.
The following procedure describes the additional steps required.
1. Consult the report generated by the LINKPlanner tool and note the Receive and
Transmit power recommended levels.
2. Set the local unit power equal to the 'LOCAL - Max Transmit Power setting while
pointing' value from the LINKPlanner report.
3. Set the remote unit power equal to the 'REMOTE - Max Transmit Power setting while
pointing' value from the LINKPlanner report.
4. Access each unit separately using a PC to reboot the units.
5. Align the units as described in the User Guide.
6. Repeat Step 2 and 3 using the values 'LOCAL - Max Transmit Power setting before
disarm' and 'REMOTE - Max Transmit Power setting before disarm' , if different than
the corresponding 'while pointing' values.
7. Reboot the local unit then reboot the remote unit.
8. Disarm the units.
9. After 1 hour of operation the mean value of Link Loss on the status page should be
within the values given in the LINKPlanner report. Further adjustments of the power
levels may be necessary. Consult the LINKPlanner report notes and adjust the
powers accordingly. You will not be required to reboot the units for that to take effect.
