—enter the radio network address that matches all of the RF401
radios and other AVW206 in the network. Valid entries are 0-3
Power Mode
—If not using a radio, select “Radio Off” for the Power Mode.
Otherwise, select a power mode that works with the RF401’s power mode (see
Table TABLE 5-1).

Retry Level
—select the desired Retry Level (None, Low, Medium or High)
according to the level of RF ‘collisions’ you expect. This depends on how
many neighboring spread spectrum radios are in and out of your network and
the frequency of transmissions. (For most applications, select Low for the
Retry Level.)
Once the settings have been defined, press Apply to save the changes to the
AVW200.
