Sounding Signal Length
This option sets the length of the sounding transmission, in seconds, for each channel in the
scan group.
When an ALE station sends sounding signals, a separate signal is transmitted for each
channel in the scan group. The ALE station sends these signals sequentially. The total
length of the sounding transmission is the product of the sounding signal length and the
number of channels.
If the sounding signal length is set to 10 seconds and the scan group contains seven
channels, the ALE station takes 70 seconds to complete sounding transmission.
The default sounding signal length is the minimum setting (under five seconds). The
maximum setting is 100 seconds.
