XXXX
 W and a maximum current draw 
of 
XXXX
 A (at 21 VDC).

REVIEWING THE FRONT PANEL DESIGN
The front panel contains 
RSSI
 monitoring interface, a 
GND
 interface for reference with RSSI, and status 
LEDs to provide visual information about the TRACER 5045 system. Figure 1 identifies the various 
bantam interfaces and the LEDs.

RSSI Monitoring Interface
The RSSI voltage is a function of the signal strength at the receiver and is used to measure the received 
signal strength. RSSI varies approximately from 0 to greater than 4 Volts (V), with 0V corresponding to a 
weaker received signal and 4V or better corresponding to a stronger received signal.
Front Panel LEDs
With the TRACER 5045 powered-on, the front panel LEDs provide visual information about the status of 
the TRACER 5045 system. Table 1 provides a brief description of the front panel features, and Table 2 on 
page 27
 provides detailed information about the LEDs.
The voltage level present at the 
RSSI
 test point represents only a relative signal level of 
receive strength from the far end. No direct correlation can be made between RSSI voltage 
levels and actual receive levels in dBm. This test point is provided to assess relative signal 
level for alignment of antennas.
