Power Management
(Administrator View)
When creating an administrator package, Power
Management lets you select a balance between power

PSP Level 1: PSP set at maximum
power.
PSP Levels 2-4: PSP set to maximize
power.

battery life.
PSP Auto: Default is PSP Level 5.

preamble detection. If supported, short preamble
should be used. If not, use Long Tx Preamble.

2200BG Network Connection.
