The radio page is divided in two sections:
- "Radio Settings" - allows you to configure general radio parameters and features:
- General
- Air Frame
- Radio Frontend
- Automatic Modulation and Transmit Power Control
- "Frequency Channel Grids" - specifies the default and custom frequency domains for each bandwidth (10, 20, 40 MHz).
Radio Settings
The following radio parameters can be configured under the "Radio Settings" section:

CAUTION
Setting the source of synchronization takes effect only for the Master unit.
CAUTION
Make sure that the built-in GNSS receiver is set up before enabling the “gnss” option (use “gps” command to check the status - it is recommended to use values of “HDOP” parameter up to 1.5 for reliable global timing synchronization)
CAUTION
Please note that the following settings must be equal for the co-located units:
- Center Frequency
- Channel Width
- Max Distance
- Frame Period
- Short Cyclic Prefix
- Link ID
All co-located units must be Master units
NOTE
In order to export and apply option markedto the other side of the link check the box "Export settings markedto the other unit" and click the "Apply" button.
Frequency Channel Grid
The licensed frequencies range per each bandwidth is displayed in the “Default Channel Grids” fields:
- For 10 MHz bandwidth: value range between 6295...6405 MHz in increments of 10 MHz
- For 20 MHz bandwidth: value range between 6300...6400 MHz in increments of 20 MHz
- For 40 MHz bandwidth: value range between 6300...6400 MHz in increments of 20 MHz
Changes to these default values can be performed in the “Customer Channel Grid” fields, where you can:
- Limit the licensed frequencies range per each bandwidth
- Change the center frequency step (for example, 6295-6405/2.5 means that the step between the center frequencies from 6295 MHz and 6405 MHz is 2.5 MHz):
The step must be >= 1 MHz and the frequencies range (determined by the license) cannot be exceeded.
