Auto Data Rate Configuration—This selection brings up a submenu
as shown in Figure 3-22. For the settings in this submenu to
have any effect, the Data Rate menu item(Page 49) must be set
to
AUTO.
The Auto Data Rate Configuration submenu is typically for use
in environments where signal quality is variable, and you wish
to maintain the highest possible over-the-air data rate as condi-
tions change. Mobile applications are one example of where
Auto Data Rate might be used.
