Motorola PTP 500 Series User Manual page 105

While the majority of the system configuration is entered during installation and should never
require changing, this page offers the system administrator the ability to change the basic
system parameters for both the wireless and Ethernet components.
Link Name
User defined identity for the unit (max 63 characters).
Link Location
Can be used as a generic scratch pad to describe the location of the equipment.
Master Slave Mode and Link Mode Optimization
Current settings are displayed and can be modified using the Installation Wizard pages 7.7
"Installation Wizard".
Max Receive Modulation Mode
This is the maximum mode the unit will use as its adaptive modulation. By default the Max
Receive Modulation Mode is the highest mode available.
For minimum error rates, set the maximum modulation mode to the minimum necessary to
carry the required traffic.
Maximum Transmit Power
This specifies the maximum transmit power in dBm of the system. It is country dependent and
although the user can change this in 1dB steps, it will be limited to that country's regulations.
NOTE
UK requirement: In the UK there is a legal requirement to provide a minimum of 19
dB of transmit power control range. When the equipment is operating with a UK
License Key, an additional facility is provided on the configuration page that allows
the transmitted power to be reduced by 19 dB compared to the maximum allowed
with a simple single step control.
NOTE
Why Reduce Transmit Power? If the link losses are low and the link data rate and
availability targets are being easily achieved, the transmitted power level may be
reduced with a consequent benefit to other users of the band, such as fixed satellite
links.
