Target MAC Address The MAC Address of the peer unit that will be at the other end of the
wireless link. This is used by the system to ensure the unit establishes a wireless link to the
correct peer.
The MAC Address can be found embedded within the serial number of the unit. The last six
characters of the serial number are the last three bytes of the unit's MAC address.
(Note: The Canopy 150/300 Mb BH system is shipped as a pair of units with pre-loaded
correct MAC addresses. MAC addresses will only need to be entered if an existing unit has
to be replaced in the field or the unit's configuration has been erased).
Master Slave Mode At this point it is necessary to decide which end will designated a
Master. The Master unit is the controlling unit with respect to the Point-to-Point link and its
maintenance. The master transmits until the link is made, whilst the Slave listens for its peer
and only transmits when the peer has been identified.
Link Mode Optimization Optimises the link behaviour according to the type of traffic that will
be bridged.
Max Transmit Power This attribute controls the maximum transmit power the unit is
permitted to use when installing and executing the wireless link. The maximum setting for a
particular region or country is controlled by the License Key.
Ranging Mode During installation the wireless units perform automatic ranging. The ranging
mode allows the installer to control the behaviour of the systems automatic ranging
algorithms. The default value is 0 to 40 km
greater than 40 km then the ranging mode attribute MUST be configured to '0 to 100km' or '0
to 200km' mode depending on the range of the link.
