Software Version
This field indicates the software release that is operated on the module, the release date
of the software, the time, and whether the module is secured by DES or AES encryption
(see Encrypting Canopy Radio Transmissions on Page 296). When you request technical
support, provide the information from this field.
Software Boot Version
This field indicates the CANOPYBOOT version number.
FPGA Version
This field indicates the version of the field-programmable gate array (FPGA) on the
module. When you request technical support, provide the information from this field.
Uptime
This field indicates how long the module has operated since power was applied.
System Time
This field provides the current time. If the AP is connected to a CMM, then this field

system time.
Ethernet Interface
This field indicates the configuration of the Ethernet interface on the module.
Registered SM Count
This field indicates how many SMs are registered to the AP.
GPS Sync Pulse Status
This field indicates the status of synchronization that the AP is receiving as follows:
◦ Generating sync indicates that the module is set to generate the sync pulse.
◦ Receiving Sync indicates that the module is set to receive a sync pulse from an
outside source and is receiving the pulse.
◦ ERROR: No Sync Pulse indicates that the module is set to receive a sync pulse
from an outside source and is not receiving the pulse.
