
Given that the current RLX2 only has one radio module, all Masters, by
necessity, have to be on the same Channel to allow the roaming Repeater to
detect them.

In applications where the mobile platform is travelling a known path, it is
necessary to have an unambiguous option when it reaches a roam point. If
multiple Parents are in range at the roam point, it may decide to roam to the
wrong Parent.

The Repeater’s Roam Threshold and Parent Margin settings are used for every
roam. Due to topology variances, there may be one or two coverage areas that
would operate better with different settings for these roam parameters.
The following settings allow for Parent Assisted roaming by advertising these parameter
values to any Child Repeater that associates to this unit. Each parameter can be
enabled separately using a checkbox. Only enabled parameters are advertised to Child
Repeaters.
