• Radio Mode: Switch between Network mode and PHY Diagnostics. If the value equals 0, it is in
Network mode; if the value equals 1, it is in PHY Diagnostics. PHY Diagnostics mode is only relevant
for users who wish to run diagnostic tests on the radio.
• Apply: Applies the new values but does not save them to flash.
• Save and Apply: Save the new values to flash and apply.
Modulation Modes and Receiver Sensitivity
• Note that listed sensitivity values were measured using a controlled and cabled setup.
Actual results may vary by +/- 2dB. Table assumes link distance of 5000m. 10ms, 20ms,
and 40ms burst time for 20, 10, and 5MHz bandwidth respectively. 1600 byte
Fragmentation Threshold.
• * Modes supported under the AUTO MCS option.
• * Modes supported under the EXTENDED AUTO MCS option in addition to AUTO MCS
modes.
• *Modes currently not supported
