7.7.12 Additional Installation Notes

According to the LINKPlanner report power settings values, some additional steps are required.
This is done to ensure that the power levels of the installed units are not too high.
Hiigher power levels may cause the saturation of the receivers or may cause false Radar detection
(in Radar Enabled regions) which will cause a degradation of the link performance and may be
responsible for a link failure.
The following procedure describes the additional steps required.
• Consult the report generated by the LINKPlanner tool and note the Receive and Transmit
power recommended levels.
• Set the local unit power equal to the 'LOCAL - Max Transmit Power setting while pointing'
value from the LINKPlanner report.
• Set the remote unit power equal to the 'REMOTE - Max Transmit Power setting while pointing'
value from the LINKPlanner report.
• Access each unit separately using a PC to reboot the units.
• Align the units as described in the User Guide.
• Repeat Step 2 and 3 using the values 'LOCAL - Max Transmit Power setting before disarm' and
'REMOTE - Max Transmit Power setting before disarm' , if different than the corresponding
'while pointing' values.
• Reboot the local unit then reboot the remote unit.
• Disarm the units.
• After 1 hour of operation the mean value of Link Loss on the status page should be within
the values given in the LINKPlanner report. Further adjustments of the power levels may be
necessary. Consult the LINKPlanner report notes and adjust the powers accordingly. You will
not be required to reboot the units for that to take effect.
