Show Radio Statistics
Radio Statistics in the Main Menu allows the user to view data transmission statistics gathered by the
transceiver during the most recent session. This is valuable when the user needs to know the signal
strength and noise levels of the link. Statistics are gathered during each data link and are reset when the
next link begins. See display below.

Any time the link between the Master and the Slave is broken and the radios lose Carrier Detect, it is
recorded in the Number of Disconnects value. The value indicates the total number of disconnects that
have occurred from the time the transceiver is powered on until the radio is put into Setup mode. Under
ideal operating conditions, the number of disconnects should be 0. One or more disconnects may indicate
a weak link, the presence of severe interference problems or loss of power to any of the radios in the link.

This is a measurement of the transmitted power that is reflected back into the transceiver from
mismatched antennas or cables, or loose connections between the transceiver and antenna. A reading
of 0-5 is good; 5-30 is acceptable; 30+ indicates that the connections should be inspected for loose
connections and cable quality.

The average noise level indicates the level of background noise and interference at this transceiver. The
number is an average of the noise levels measured at each frequency in the transceiver’s frequency hop
table. The individual measurement values at each frequency hop channel are shown in the frequency
table. Pressing the Enter key when the Radio Statistics menu is displayed, accesses the frequency table.

Ideally, noise levels should be below 70 J units and the difference between the average signal level and
average noise level should be 26 or more. Noise levels significantly higher than this are an indication of a
high level of interference that may degrade the performance of the link. High noise levels can often be
mitigated with band pass filters, antenna placement or antenna polarization.

The average signal level indicates the level of received signal at this transceiver. For each of these, the
signal source is the transceiver that transmits to it. The number is an average of the received signal levels
measured at each frequency in the transceiver's frequency hop table. The individual measurement values
at each frequency hop channel are shown in the frequency table. Pressing the Enter key when the Radio
Statistics menu is displayed accesses the frequency table. For a reliable link, the margin should be at
least 26 J units. Low Average Signal Levels can often be corrected with higher gain antennas and better
antenna placement.

The Overall Receive Rate measures the percentage of data packets that were successfully transmitted
from the Master to the Slave on the first attempt. A number of 75 or higher indicates a robust link that will
provide very good performance even at high data transmission rates. A number of 15 or lower indicates a
weak or marginal link that will provide lower data throughput. An Overall Receive Rate of 100% will
