timeout periods before searching for a new channel. If Channel Switch Speed is set
to Fast, the current channel is only monitored for up to 2 time-out periods before
channel switching begins.
Important: “Fast” switch speed is most effective where coverage areas are
largely overlapping. If the coverage areas barely overlap, have
dead spots, or if the 8525 G2/8530 G2 frequently operates on the
fringe of coverage, this parameter should be set to “Slow”.
Channel Selection
Enabling Manual Select allows you to set the channel search order the
8525 G2/8530 G2 will use if communication quality drops and channel
switching is required. If this parameter is enabled, the 8525 G2/8530 G2 uses
the channel switching lists specified in the Manual Switch Table. If this parameter is
disabled (unchecked), the vehicle-mount uses a standard algorithm to decide which
channel it should switch to in the event of poor channel quality.
Warning: It is not recommended that the “Manual Select” parameter be used
without a clear understanding of how to order the channel
sequences for optimum performance.
