Typically the default settings will be optimum, but there may be unique network
configurations which require modifying the STDMA Slot Capacity value.

STDMA Switch Delay

In order to minimize unnecessary switching from STDMA to SCPC due to tran-
sient conditions, such as a temporary spike in network traffic for example, a
switch delay parameter is provided. This setting is used to specify a delay before
a switch occurs.
Typically the default values will be optimum, but this value can be changed to
accommodate a unique network configuration or application. To change this
setting, enter W at the command prompt in figure 3-38 to display the screen
shown in figure 3-40.

Percent Allocation

The Percent Allocation menu item, shown in figure 3-38, allows adding a fixed
percentage to the channel bandwidth request to accommodate additional band-
width requirements which may occur after a switch is made from STDMA to
SCPC mode.
To change this setting, enter E at the command prompt to display the screen
shown in figure 3-41.
