Epoch-M1P RF Repeater
User Manual V1.0
If there’s a modem inside the repeater, you don’t need to set the date and time
manually.
Alarm Setting
RSSI
The RSSI alarm is the minimum RSSI value that the Epoch-M1P requires to ensure
optimal coverage. The RSSI alarm will go off when the RSSI is lower than the
threshold value (refer to the RSSI value in the Alarm Setting Window). The
threshold RSSI value can also be adjusted manually @ 0.5 dB step (range is
shown in Table 5 on page 20).
Input Overload
A Downlink/Uplink Input Overload alarm occurs when the input signal strength
to the Epoch-M1P exceeds the threshold value (refer to the Uplink/Downlink
Input
Overload values in the Alarm Setting window).
