Adjusting power settings

Adjusting power settings
The transmit power levels of the installed units must be adjusted to ensure they are

and link failure.
NOTE
To adjust the transmit power levels of the local and remote units, select
Configuration from the menu, then update the Max Transmit Power
attribute.
