Valid range

0 to 15

Sets the Site address

The site number is used to distinguish between groups of operating modems. The site

code is an address extension to the unit number.

Updates the unit number value.

This command is used for changing the unit number in RAM without updating the unit

number stored in EEPROM. This enables the RPM3 to support point-to-multipoint

communications.

Upon using this command the configurator is exited and the modem operation is

resumed. The modem is not reset when the configurator is exited.

Sets the on-air data throughput.

Three possible settings are provided.

max: sets the maximum data throughput of the RPM3.

slots: effectively reduces the on-air throughput. This opens up ‘time slots’

allowing other RPM3 pairs, operating within close proximity, equal opportunity

to transmit data.

slotsw: increases the ‘time slots’ even further to allow more RPM3 pairs to

operate.
