There are five transmission power options:
Select Maximum power to set the mobile computer to the highest transmission power
level. Select Maximum power when operating in highly reflective environments and areas
where other devices could be operating nearby. Additionally, use the maximum power level
when attempting to communicate with devices at the outer edge of a coverage area.
Select 50%, 25% or 10% to set the transmit power level to that percentage of the
maximum power level.
Select Minimum power to set the mobile computer to the lowest transmission power level.
Use the minimum power level when communicating with other devices in very close
proximity. Additionally, select minimum power in instances where little or no radio
interference from other devices is anticipated.
