– Disable – Channels that are to be scanned during DFS.
Edit Entries to the Channel Blacklist Table
In accordance to the EN301-893 non-occupancy rule, when a radar signal is detected on any active channel, the
blacklist status of that channel will change to “Enable” and the Radar Detected status will change to TRUE (see
previous figure). The channel will not be used for a period of 30 minutes after the radar signal has been detected. The
elapsed time is also shown in the DFS channel blacklist table. When the elapsed time for a channel in the blacklist is
greater than or equal to 30 minutes, the blacklist status of the channel will change to Disable and the Radar Detected
and Elapsed Time fields will change accordingly.
If an operator knows in advance on which channels a radar signal is likely to exist, those channels can be blacklisted
and hence they will be skipped during DFS. Similarly, if the operator knows of channels where a radar signal is
unlikely to be detected, those channels can be defined as active and hence they will be scanned during DFS. This
makes the whole process more efficient.
When you click Edit, the channel blacklist table screen appears. Here you can manually configure each channel as
“active” (Blacklist Status = Disable) or “blacklisted” (Blacklist Status = Enable). Enter your changes and click OK. To
go back, click on the arrow button.
