  • Page 8: Important Comments For Application

    Remove devices from packaging. Keep packaging material for future shipment purposes! Accu blocks are not inserted in HW 90196 at time of delivery. After unpacking of box accu blocks have to be inserted in HW 90196. A final functional test of the HW 90196 and its peripheral devices should be performed before delivery to customer.
  • Page 9: Bring-In Service (Repair Of Devices)

    It is due to the responsibility of the customer to remove any plug-ins (e.g. dealer cards) from the HW 90196 mobile POS terminal before shipment to H & W. Company H & W is not liable for loss of plug-ins or resulting damages.

    Vectron User manual Each basestation has assigned a fixed generic hopping pattern. Co-located basestations may use the same generic hopping pattern or different generic hopping patterns without restriction. Endpoints support the whole set of generic hopping patterns. When an endpoint establishes a connection to a basestation it detects, during the synchronization procedure, the generic hopping pattern to be used.
  • Page 63: Monitoring Of The Environment

    User manual Vectron 10.6.2 Monitoring of the environment Both sides, basestation and endpoint regularly and independently perform RSSI scans of all accessible hopping channels and time slots. The basestation broadcasts on its dummy bearer a list of allowed hop- ping channels and time slots. Any endpoint maintain a list of quietest channels, i.e. preferred values (l,k) for setting up a connection.

  • Page 65: Interference From Other Sources

    User manual Vectron 10.7.3 Interference from other sources Other frequency hopping systems may cause occasional packet loss which is solved through packet re- transmission. The same applies to CW interferers. In case the interference pattern of a specific interferer tends to disturb specific time slots or hopping channels, the system will avoid these channels.
