Advanced Wireless Configuration - Redline RDL-3000 User Manual

RDL-3000
Important: EIRP Levels: Where required by local regulations, the maximum
operational power per channel for a specific antenna must not exceed the maximum
allowable EIRP levels. See the FCC and CE notices in this manual. The RF output
power settings must be professionally programmed by the manufacturer or a trained
professional installer.

Advanced Wireless Configuration

Max. Distance [km]: (SC only) Enter the distance to the subscriber located farthest
away from the sector controller (outer boundary of sector).
DFS Action: (SC only) Select the mode of operation for DFS.
The PMP SC monitors for interference from radar devices and other equipment using
the same channel frequency. When interference is detected, the PMP SC automatically
takes the selected action:
None: The DFS function is disabled. Where DFS is required by regional regulations,
this feature is permanently enabled at the factory and can not be disabled by the
installer or end-user.
Tx Off: When radar signals are detected the transmitter is switched off for 30
minutes. This action is recorded in the message log and an SNMP trap message is
sent (if SNMP enabled). Following an interval of thirty minutes, the same channel is
monitored for one minute and if there are no DFS triggering events, the system
resumes normal operation. If DFS trigger conditions are still detected, operation is
suspended for an additional thirty minute period.
Chg Freq: When radar signals are detected the transmitter is switched to a different
frequency. This action is logged and a trap message is sent (if enabled). A new
channel is selected based on allowable frequencies for the regulatory region set by
the active options key. Each selected channel is monitored for one minute, and if
DFS triggering events are detected, the next available channel is selected. The
system is not allowed to return to a channel on which DFS trigger events were
detected for a period of thirty minutes. If DFS trigger events are detected on all
channels, operation is suspended until the time expires for at least one channel.
Antenna Gain: Enter the antenna gain specified by the manufacturer. This field is
required for DFS-enabled systems.
It is important to enter the correct value. If this value is set higher than the true gain, the
sensitivity is too low and the RDL-3000 will not be operating in compliance with the
UK/ETSI standard. If this value is set lower than the true gain, the RDL-3000 is more
sensitive to interference and may experience false triggers.
Antenna Alignment Buzzer Enable: (SS only) Audible antenna alignment tool.
Disabled ( ): The antenna alignment tool is disabled (no tone).
Enabled ( ): The antenna alignment audible tone generator is active. The rate of the
tone increases when a stronger signal is detected.
Registration Period [frames]: (SC only) The polling period for detecting new
subscribers. This period is based on the number of wireless frames transmitted.
Permitted values are 1 to 100 frames (recommended frame period: 4).
Scheduling Cycle: Enter the duration of the traffic scheduling period (e.g., 5 ms). This
setting affects the volume (and latency) of traffic transmitted over the wireless interface
during each cycle.
Longer scheduling cycles can provide more efficient packet processing.
Shorter scheduling cycles can provide lower latency:
