10.4.73.12 RadioRSSI
Indicates the signal strength of the last packet received by this radio.
The units of the RSSI are dBm; -40 is a stronger signal than -70. Because the received signal
strength can vary due to multipath, interference, or other environmental effects; this setting may
not give a true indication of communication performance or range. However, received signal
strength can be useful for activities such as:
l Determining the optimal direction to aim a Yagi antenna.
l Determining the effects of antenna height and location.
l Trying alternate (reflective) paths.
l Seeing the effect of vegetation and weather over time.
l Long data type
l Read only

10.4.73.14 RadioStats
Provides the performance statistics for the integrated radio for the data logger. The data logger
will maintain a radio routing table for each PakBus neighbor accessed using the integrated radio
and this setting is generated from that table. The fields reported for this setting are as follows:
l PakBus Address: Specifies the PakBus address of the neighbor reached through an
integrated radio link.
l Sent Packets: Reports the number of radio packets that have been transmitted to the
PakBus neighbor using the integrated radio link.
