Figure 3-51. ISM 900 (NX) S&F Configuration
Modem Mode - Controls the target throughput of the radio
- 125kbps - Theoretical throughput of 125 kbps
- 250kbps - Theoretical throughput of 250 kbps
- 500kbps - Theoretical throughput of 500 kbps (DEFAULT)
- 1000kbps - Theoretical throughput of 1000 kbps with narrow bandwidth
- 1000Wkbps - Theoretical throughput of 1000 kbps with higher sensitivity
- 1250kbps - Theoretical throughput of 1250 kbps
- Auto - While the AP must pick a fixed modem, in this mode the remote can walk all
modems and find the one with the strongest signal.
Device Mode - Sets the role the radio will assume in the network.
- Remote (DEFAULT)
- Access Point
- Store and Forward
Network Name - The name of the network. Used to control what networks the radio connects
to. Valid values: 1 to 31 letters (DEFAULT is mds-nx). The network name string is used to
identify the logical network that the device should join. If the network name does not match,
the device will log an event to identify network name collisions.
Data Compression – Over the air compression
- lzo - Compresses the over the air traffic with the LZO algorithm
- none - No data compression (DEFAULT)
Header Compression – Disabled by DEFAULT. Enable/disable over the air robust header
compression. This feature compresses IP headers to improve system performance, and is most
useful in applications that rely on IP packets with small payloads, such as terminal server
operations or MODBUS polling. This setting must match on each radio (Remote and AP).
