Basic Configuration Information
30
By default, the unit lets you transmit at the maximum output power that the radio can sustain for data rate and frequency
selected. However, with Transmit Power Control (TPC), you can adjust the output power of the unit to a lower level in
order to reduce interference to neighboring devices or to use a higher gain antenna without violating the maximum
radiated output power allowed for your country. Also, most countries in the ETSI regulatory domain require the transmit
power to be set to a 6 dB lower value than the maximum allowed EIRP when link quality permits, as part of the DFS
requirements.
You can see your unit’s current output power for the selected frequency in the event log. The event log shows the
selected power for all data rates, so you must look up the relevant data rate to determine the actual power level.
NOTE: This feature only lets you decrease your output power; you cannot increase your output power beyond the
maximum the radio allows for your frequency and data rate.
See System Parameters to configure Country. See Configure the Wireless Interface to configure Transmit Power
Control.
