4.0 Configuration
This setting establishes the transmit power level which will be
presented to the antenna connector(s) of the pMDDL5824.
Unless required, the Tx Power should be set not for maximum, but
rather for the minimum value required to maintain an adequate system
fade margin.
TX Power reflects the Total RF power for the pMDDL5824. In MIMO
mode this means that the total RF power is split between antenna
interfaces. When MIMO is disabled a total of 30 dBM can be presented
to the ANT 1 Antenna.

Refer to FCC (or as
otherwise applicable)
regulations to ascertain,
and not operate beyond,
the maximum allowable
transmitter output power
and effective isotropic
radiated power (EIRP).
The Wireless Distance parameter allows a user to set the expected
distance the wireless signal needs to travel. The pMDDL5824 sets
various internal timeouts to account for this travel time. Longer
distances will require a higher setting, and shorter distances may
perform better if the setting is reduced.
Wireless Distance
Values (meters)
3000
MIMO (2X2) features of the pMDDL5824 can be enabled or disabled
using this parameter. Disabling MIMO allows up to 30dBm to be
presented to ANT1 connector. When MIMO is disabled all
communication is through ANT 1.
MIMO
Values (selection)
ON / OFF
Set the Channel-Frequency. This must be the same on each unit in a
network. The frequency shown is the center frequency and is available
in 1 MHz increments, values shown will vary with the Channel
Bandwidth selected above.
The noise floor of the specified channel will dramatically affect
the quality of the link, it is essential to select the cleanest channel
for superior performance.
Channel-Frequency
Values (MHz)
5.8 GHz Mode
Channel 1 - 5001 MHz
Channel 899 - 5899 MHz
2.4 GHz Mode
Channel 1 - 2402 MHz
Channel 81 - 2482 MHz
