This is the third of three methods that may be used to monitor receive signal level
during antenna alignment.
Select menu option Installation, Graphical Install. The Graphical Install page is
displayed (Figure 6-35).
Figure 6-
35 Graphical installation page
The screen displays the receive power over the last three minutes. This will allow the
installer to slowly sweep the antenna during installation and monitor the variation in
signal strength with angular position. The screen automatically refreshes every three
seconds.
The screen also displays the current state of the wireless link in two ways. First, the
actual state of the wireless link is written in the top left corner of the screen. The
instantaneous receive power bar also encodes the state of the wireless link using
green to signify that the wireless link is up and red for all other states.
The installation metric is simply the instantaneous receive power in dBm + 110.
PDA version: To access the PDA version of the graphical installation tool, use a
