ACS (Online, Offline)
The Automatic Channel Selection (ACS) utilizes an embedded algorithm to scan for the best channel with
which your base station can work, ensuring optimal capacity, minimal interference and maximum
performance.
Offline ACS performs a full scan of the available channels while the system is down, determining which
channels are the best and most interference-free, and prompting you to choose these channels prior to
resuming and reactivating the system .
Online ACS will run in the background while the system is up, checking the available channels, and whether
any of those available are better for use than the channels currently being utilized.
Note: The ACS will be enabled in a future release
