7.4 Antenna Alignment using RSSI LED
There are 2 LED indicators on the side of the AirMax5 that is dedicated to display the RSSI
signal strength. They are in bright blue and green color so you can see the difference in
signal far away from the CPE. By varying the states of the LED, the AirMax5 can display 4
different levels of signal strength.
About the Signal Threshold
There are total of 4 signal levels in AirMax5: No Signal, Weak Signal, Strong Signal, Full
Signal. The Signal Threshold is the dividing line between 2 signal level. For example; if
the Full Signal Threshold is set to -50dB, -49dB will be Full Signal while -51dB will be
Strong Signal.
You can change the Signal Threshold by going to going to “Operation Mode -> Setup ->
RSSI LED Threshold” menu. The values indicated are the default threshold value. The
correct value really depends on the TX output power of the remote AP. If the distance is
greater or output power is lower, please reduce the threshold values.
