PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND USER'S MANUAL
© Axell Wireless Ltd A 200 93 00, rev E 53 (105)
Note! If the time is adjusted by a user logged in to the repeater, once the user logs out, a heartbeat is sent to
the AEM to ensure that the time is correctly synchronized.
4.5.2 Heartbeat Format
The heartbeat report is transmitted as an ASCII text string, with a number of fields representing the RF-
configuration and status parameters, each field separated by a blank/white space.
Using the Axell Element Manager to control the repeater, the heartbeat report is delivered to the Transceiver
for further processing in the AEM system.
