Radio Enable
Radio Enable is used to turn the radio module on or off. This feature can be used for troubleshooting. The EMS
will automatically disable the radio if Low Voltage Disconnect activates. A system without a radio will still show the
Radio Enable entry, but it will not have any effect on behavior.
Carmanah Radio Enable default is on for systems containing the radio module, and off for systems without it.
Radio Channel
For radio-equipped systems, the Radio Channel setting is used to configure the channel that is used for
communication with other systems in the same group. Groups near to each other will have their channels set to
different values to ensure there is no accidental cross-activation between them. Changing the channel is a useful
troubleshooting step if some systems are experiencing intermittent issues. The 2.4GHz band that the G Series
radio module use is public spectrum, and there may be a strong interference signal nearby.
Channel changes are not broadcast to adjacent systems.
Systems without radios will still show a channel assignment, but it will not have any effect on
behavior.
Carmanah default Radio Channel is 5.
Radio Detection Status
Radio Detection Status indicates whether the EMS has detected a radio module. Radio Detection involves more
than sensing the physical presence of the radio; the EMS interacts with the radio and tests several things before
declaring the radio "detected".
