Setting Link Parameters
The AirLink Pro T1/E1 Rack Mount Link parameters include the following:
❚ Application
❚ Burst Mode
❚ PN Code
❚ RF Power
❚ Order Wire Type
❚ Interface Type (E1 only)
Depending upon your application, you will need to set or change values for one
or more of these configuration parameters.
NOTE These are service-affecting configuration parameters. Changing any of these parameter
values disrupts the radio link for the time it takes to set compatible parameter values for
both ends of the link. Do the remote change always first so that the radio link can be
regained by making changes to the local unit. If you make the local changes first and lose
the radio link, you might be forced to go to the remote site in order to reconfigure the
remote unit and reinstate operation.
Application
Application refers to the role the unit plays in either a point-to-point link
(master/slave) or in a hub scheme involving primary and secondary masters.
Your choice of application determines the timing (external versus internal)
relationship between the AirLink Pro T1/E1 Rack Mount units:
1. Primary master at a hub
2. Secondary Master at a hub
3. Master unit at a repeater site
4. Master unit in a point-to-point link
5. Slave unit at a repeater site
6. Slave unit in a point-to-point link
7. Secondary Master in a protected link
