Unit role | One of the link units must be set to Master and the other one to Slave. At the link setup phase the following parameters must be set to the same value on Master unit and Slave unit: - Center frequency - it may be set by two ways:
- Manually via "Downlink center frequency" and "Uplink center frequency" parameters. In this case wireless link will be setup at once.
- Automatically with "Automatic selection of center frequency" function. In this case frequency channel grids must be set on both units. At the initial phase Master unit will select its center frequency automatically from grid, after that Slave unit will scan frequencies from its grid and wireless link will be setup when Slave find the center frequency which Master operates on.
- Channel width - should be set manually on both units.
When a wireless link is established Slave unit will continuously inherit radio frontend parameters from Master unit excluding frequency channel grids. So, if you change some values on Master they will be set on Slave automatically. | Automatic selection of center frequency | There are several approaches to define center frequencies in Quanta 5: - Frequency selection off - center frequency will be set manually.
- Instant DFS and radar detection - center frequency will be set automatically according to frequency channel grids. In this mode Master unit will switch to the different frequency if high level interference or radar will be detected. Slave unit will switch too at the same time.
- Instant DFS - center frequency will be set automatically according to frequency channel grids. In this mode Master unit will switch to the different frequency only if high level interference will be detected with no matter the type of interference source. Slave unit will be switched too at the same time.
| Independent UL/DL center frequencies | Units may transmit on diffrerent center frequencies. - Enabled - uplink and downlink frequencies can be set to different values.
- Disabled - uplink and downlink frequencies will be the same.
| Power limit | Power limit parameter limits the transmitter power, there are two modes: - Transmitter output power - limits the power of transmitter to the set value.
- EIRP - limits the total system power calculated as:

AMC strategy | There are folowing AMC strategies are available: - Normal - represents a balance between the error rate and throughput values.
- Conservative - assumes using higher CINR thresholds in order to minimize the error rate.
- Agressive - lowers the thresholds in order to use higher modulation levels and thus increase the throughput.
| Automatic transmit power control | ATPC allows to automatically control transmitter output power. Each unit has its own target RSSI level value calculated automatically. If actual RSSI level is lower then unit increases transmitter output power of the ewmote unit and vice versa. ATPC could not set value that may exceed the "Power limit" value. - The Master unit manages the transmit power of Slave unit.
- The Slave unit manages the transmit power of Master unit.

Frequency channel grids
Each available channel width connected with appropriate channel grid. Grid is used for automatic selection of center frequency function and contains a list of frequencies can be switched to. In the example below you may see that wireless unit with enabled "Automatic selection of center frequency" may change center frequency to the following values (MHz): 5100, 5120, 5140, 5300, 5390, 5410.

5100-5140/20, 5300, 5390-5410/20 |
Each element of list may be set as follows:
- 5300 - exact value;
- 5100-5140/20, 5390-5410/20 - range of values with 20 MHz step, step always must correspond to channel width.
