7.7 Setting Gain (AGC off mode only)
The picture below shows how to adjust the RF gain, in order to optimize the transmission
performance in terms of CNR, CSO, CTB and BER.
Fig. 7.7.1: Setting RF gain of ES10/ES26
ES10 application software release 2.0 and later supports this feature.
Notes:
1. The RF gain setting is only relevant in AGC-on mode.
2. The setting range for RF gain might change slightly from device to device due to
production tolerances.
3. Changing the RF gain changes the input sensitivity of the ES10/ES26 in AGC off mode;
0 dB is the nominal RF gain. Setting the RF gain to e.g. 2 dB improves the input sensitivity
of the ES10/ES26 from e.g. 80 dBµV to 78 dBµV.
