All configuration operations of LSP3A systems are carried on with the LSP3A Web UI.
5.1 Chip Configuration
For optimal performance the scanning duration (T_scan) should not exceed 250ms. T_scan
is the period to scan all pedestals of a group of N pedestals, i.e. a Master and (N-1) Slave
Pedestals. Depending on your chip configuration and the number of pedestals installed you can
determine the scanning duration of your installation.
5.1.1 Scanning duration per pedestal

The scanning duration per pedestal will vary according to the configuration you selected. The
scanning duration will always include the synchronization process of 10ms.
Example 1: with a system using the 370-AFI in ETSI mode.
The scanning duration per pedestal will be: T_single _scan = (10ms+20ms) = 30ms
Example 2: with a system using the 370-AFI1-AFI2 in ETSI mode.
The scanning duration per pedestal will be: T_single _scan = (10ms+20ms+20ms) = 50ms
Example 3: with a system using the 370-EAS in ETSI mode.
The scanning duration per pedestal will be: T_single _scan = (10ms+20ms+15ms) = 45ms
5.1.2 Global scanning duration
The global scanning duration (T_scan) will depend on the synchronization mode you have
selected. Hardwired synchronization is faster than wireless synchronization.
Table 5.2: Global scanning duration versus Synchronisation mode
Synchronization Mode T_scan
Hardwired = T_single_scan x Nb_Pedestals
Example 4: with a 4 pedestals system using 370-AFI1-AFI2 in ETSI mode.
The global scanning duration will be: T_scan = 50ms x 4 = 200ms if used hardwired.
The global scanning duration will be: T_scan = 50ms x ((2 x 4) – 2) = 300ms if used wireless.
