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 702)

or by increasing the transmitter power (see "Selecting the transmitter

power" on page 703).
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.
