This feature of airBridge allows the user to control the radio transmit power of the airBridge from the SimpleMonitor software. Make use of the user interface controls in this Tab to adjust the radio transmit power. Dial a Power facility is available only if you login as Administrator.
  1. Select the antenna connected to airBridge from Antenna Type drop down list, if you happen to select the Custom Antenna, please enter the Valid Gain. The limit is 1.0 dBi to 30.0 dBi.
  2. Specify Cable Loss value in the Edit box. The limits for this value are min 0.5 dB, max 10.0 dB.
  3. Use slider control to adjust EIRP Output power from the airBridge. As you move the slider pointer, observe that EIRP Output power is displayed in Effective output Power Display.
  4. The Effective Power is calculated as equal to airBridge output Power(dBm) - Cable Loss(dB) + Antenna Gain(dBi).
  5. Click "Set Power" button. This will change the radio transmit power of the airBridge unit.

A message will be displayed after successful completion of this operation.
