User Manual and Reference Guide roving Gateway or Endpoint(s). As the link gets weaker, a lower setting allows a poor link to break in search of a different link. Note: FreeWave recommends setting the Retry Time Out to 20 in areas where several FreeWave networks exist. This setting allows Endpoints and Repeaters to drop the connection if the link becomes too weak, while at the same time prevents errant disconnects due to interference from neighboring networks.
FGR2-PE Wirelss Data Transceiver higher the Slave Connect Odds setting, the more persistent that Endpoint will be in attempting to acquire the Gateway’s connection. This setting is a chance out of a total of 15. For example, a setting of 1 means the radio has a 1 in 15 chance (6.66…%), and a setting of 9 means a 9 in 15 chance (60%). At each slot the Gateway is available, the Endpoint “rolls the dice” to see if it retries connecting with the Gateway.
User Manual and Reference Guide F, an Endpoint or Repeater connects with the first Repeater or Gateway that it hears with the same Network ID. There are scenarios, however, where communications need to be forced to follow a specific path. Subnet ID is particularly helpful to force two Repeaters in the same network to operate in series rather than in parallel, or, if desired, to force Endpoints to communicate to a specific Repeater for load balancing purposes.
FGR2-PE Wirelss Data Transceiver The following table shows the subnet IDs for the above example: Transceiver Subnet ID Subnet (RX) ID (TX) Other Information Gateway F F Gateway 0-F 0-F Repeater 1 0 1 A 0 forces the transceiver to link only to the Gateway. Repeater 2 1 2 SubnetID (RX) = 1 forces communication through Repeater1. Repeater1 transmits on SubnetID 1. Endpoint 1 0 F SubnetID (RX) = 0 forces communication through Gateway.
User Manual and Reference Guide Transmit Power Web Parameter: Transmit Power in the Transmission Characteristics section of the Radio Setup page. Network Type: Both Default Setting: 10 Options: Any number between 0 and 10. Description: Sets the output power of the transceiver. A setting of 10 is approximately 1 W of output power in a Plus-style radio.
FGR2-PE Wirelss Data Transceiver About the Call Book The Call Book is required in Point-to-Point networks. While the Call Book is an option in Point-to-MultiPoint networks, FreeWave strongly recommends using the Network ID feature in most applications. The instructions provided in this section are for Point-to-Point mode only. Use of the Call Book for MultiPoint networks is explained later in this chapter.
User Manual and Reference Guide To call an Endpoint through one or more Repeaters, that Endpoint must be called individually. With Call All selected, the Gateway will not connect with any Endpoints through Repeaters. The Gateway calls every Endpoint in the list and connects with the first Endpoint that responds. When calling through a Repeater, the Gateway must first call that Repeater and establish a communication link with it prior to making contact with the Endpoint.

Chapter 9: Data Communication Link Examples A FreeWave transceivers’ versatility allows data communication links to be established using a variety of different configurations. The example below shows the most common and straight forward link; a Gateway communicating to a Endpoint in a Point-to-Point link. The example below shows how a link might be set up using a Repeater. The Repeater may be located on a hilltop or other elevated structure enhancing the link from the Gateway to the Endpoint.
FGR2-PE Wirelss Data Transceiver The example below shows a configuration where a Gateway routinely calls a number of Endpoints at different times. The Gateway is communicating with a transceiver designated as an Endpoint/Repeater that is connected to a remote device. Since this device is placed in an elevated location, the transceiver may also be used as a Repeater when it is not used as an Endpoint. At any time the Gateway may call any of the Endpoints, establish a connection, and send and receive data.
User Manual and Reference Guide The last example is a Point-to-MultiPoint network which uses one of the sites as an Endpoint/Repeater. This network functions in the same manner as a standard MultiPoint network with Repeaters. However, the number of transceivers may be reduced with the use of the MultiPoint Endpoint/Repeater feature.
