Statistics
Under Statistics, the TNC displays information about the 
transmission quality.
If the reception quality is poor so that a proper and safe stop of the 
axes cannot be ensured anymore, an emergency-stop reaction of the 
wireless handwheel is triggered. 
The displayed value Max. successive lost indicates whether 
reception quality is poor. If the TNC repeatedly displays values greater 
than 2 during normal operation of the wireless handwheel within the 
desired range of use, then there is a risk of an undesired 
disconnection. This can be corrected by increasing the transmitter 
power or by changing to another channel with less radio traffic.
If this occurs, try to improve the transmission quality by selecting 
another channel (see "Setting the transmission channel" on page 603) 
or by increasing the transmitter power (see "Selecting the transmitter 
power" on page 604).
To display the statistical data, proceed as follows:
Press the MOD key to select the MOD function
Scroll through the soft-key row
To select the configuration menu for the wireless
handwheel, press the SET UP WIRELESS 
HANDWHEEL soft key: The TNC displays the 
configuration menu with the statistical data
Please keep in mind that the transmission range of the 
wireless handwheel decreases when the transmitter 
power is reduced.
