2.048Mbps Wireless Modem
Changing the modem rate above the default value results in the following:
•The higher the modem rate, the lower the sensitivity. Achievable distances decrease as the modem rate increases.
•The higher the modem rate relative to the LIU data rate, the higher the effective bandwidth. Better use is made of the frequency diversity capability inherent to the frequency hopping mechanism.
In conclusion, providing that the received signal level is sufficient, selecting a higher modem rate can significantly improve performance in the presence of interference.
Hoping Sequence
Current HOPPING SEQUENCE and HOPPING STANDARD are displayed. The number of available hopping sequences depends on the Hopping Standard of each country. The Hopping Standard is set in the factory. If several links in the same area are used (without using the synchronization feature), select a different hopping sequence for each pair of 2.048Mbps Wireless Modems. Master and Slave units must use the same hopping sequence. If
Add/Remove Channels from Test Sequence
Selection of this option in the RADIO and MODEM Parameters menu opens the Add/Remove Channels from Test Sequence menu. This menu allows you to determine the specific channels to be used when Test Sequence is used as the Hopping Standard. Test
Sequence should only be used as the Hopping Standard by authorized Black Box technicians. Any changes to the Test Sequence channels shall have no effect when regular Hopping Standards are being used. Therefore, do not attempt to select this option or to modify the test sequence channels under normal conditions.
REMOTE Parameters
2.048Mbps Wireless Modem supports full management of the remote unit, providing that there is a working link between the two units. Therefore the user should refrain from making changes to the remote units that may result in a complete loss of the link. The Remote Parameters menu gives you access to the following parameters:
•Switch to remote monitor
•Switch to local monitor
•PING remote unit
•Download remote database to remote unit
