This setting applies and will appear only if the Link Rate is set to
1.2Mbps.
Channel Number defines the number of channels the unit will hop
on. The minimum number is 4. (Digital Transmission System (DTS)
technology is applied at the 1.2Mbps link rate.)
(This setting does not apply if the Link Rate is 345kbps because of
the 64 channels that are available, the unit must hop on exactly 50 -
there is not option to either increase or decrease this amount.)
Zone restriction dictates within which band (zone) of frequencies that a particular unit will
operate.
Using zones simplifies network deployment by providing a convenient reference (e.g. Zone 1)
within which a given network can operate, thereby minimizing the potential for internetwork
interference. This is particularly useful when used in conjunction with Network Search Mode to
facilitate minimal interference among adjacently deployed networks.
The tables on the following page illustrate the various zones and their associated frequency
restrictions. Note that there is a difference between zone ‗values' depending on the Wireless
Link Rate selected. Currently Zone restriction is only supported on models with 345kpbs, and
1.2Mbps link rates available.
