Re: [AFMUG] 450 SM ADI communication failure

2015-07-21 Thread Charlie Galik
Ken  Brian,

Yes, ADI communication failure is a hardware issue and the board should be 
RMA'd.

Reset due to error setting receive frequency is a known random issue. Some 
fixes have gone into release 13.4 to address this. However, if it happens every 
boot of the radio, it can be a hardware failure and should contact support.

Re: [AFMUG] pmp100 pmp450 sync calculator issues

2015-07-17 Thread Charlie Galik
Hey AF,

Yes, correct there are no FSK RF changes, just an accidental Frame Calculator 
Web Page change. I have found the bug and this will be fixed in 13.4.1. Sorry 
about this accidental change.

For those that want more information: The AP starts actually receiving 
immediately before the “Max Range” time is allocated in the frame, for SMs that 
are at the max distance away. Even though the data from the SM’s won’t appear 
until later in the frame, this allows the AP to receive registration requests 
from SM’s that don’t know how far away they are.  In 13.3/13.4 the frame 
calculator page was accidentally changed to show this time. In 13.4.1 it will 
go back to the old time and be “AP Receive Data Start”. This extra time that 
was included in 13.3/13.4 does not need to be sync’d, so the bigger number can 
be used.  So use a 13.1.3 frame calculator page in the meantime. George, you 
were exactly right.

Craig, Thanks for pointing this out. Sorry for the delay, but I wanted to find 
the bug before I could answer with 100% certainty.

Ken, to answer your question I was in there changing code in 13.3 to be able to 
sync 5 ms frame with PMP 320 product. I enhanced the Frame Calculator Tool for 
OFDM to show what the times are for the antenna port of the radio, so more 
exact synchronizing could be done. There’s good parts and bad parts to having a 
common code base, and this is one of the bad parts. ☺

I would turn around and say where was our beta testers?!? We had a beta open 
for months! ☺ 13.4.1 beta anyone? ☺

Apologies again and we appreciate you guys and we appreciate your feedback.

Enjoy your day,

I updated a 900 AP. Looking at /engineering.cgi on this 13.4 AP and a 13.1.3 
AP, the current frame configuration matches. The frame calculator is definitely 
broken. I see what the difference is now. The new calculator shows max range 
air delay as one-way, while the previous calculator shows round-trip air delay. 
Somebody forgot to do math somewhere. So the new calculator needs one-way air 
delay added to the AP's Rx Start value. Not the end of the world, but yes, 
confusing.

My guess is it's just the calculator page code that got mucked up, not the

Go to one AP that is on 13.1.3 and another that's on 13.4. Log in and change 
the URL to /engineering.cgi and look at the Current Frame Configuration on 
both radios. They should match. If they don't then... uh oh. I don't have 
enough stuff updated yet to do this myself.

Re: [AFMUG] PTP450: new sessions several times a minute; is this a problem?

2014-10-15 Thread Charlie Galik via Af
Bill,

The log you send is completely normal for Canopy PTP products. This is a “Keep 
Alive Request Time Out” (KAREQTO) set after the backhaul slave sends a keep 
alive packet to the backhaul master. The backhaul master immediately responds 
with a Keep Alive Response (KARSP), which is logged as well. 8 seconds later 
the process is started over again to ensure the link is still up and well. 
There is no problem from the logs you reported, as the master is responding 
every time.

The “NewState: REGISTERED” is a bit misleading, as the last state was 
Registered, so it didn’t really change states.

To see if your session is stable, check the Session Uptime on the BHS’s home 
page:
[cid:image001.png@01CFE8CD.7C2B5CB0]

Note, by default the Backhauls generate a fresh encryption key every 24 hours. 
This is control on the BHM’s Configuration -- Security page:

[cid:image003.png@01CFE8CD.D960E760]

Ken,
On the separate PMP issue, the AP setting for the “SM Receive Target Level” of 
-59 dBm is not too hot. I do not know of any issues setting this to a higher 
number, besides of course increasing your self-interference with an AP on the 
backside.

Enjoy your day,

This is 5.8 GHz.   We set the timing on the AP to match the co-located PMP450 
APs that are operating nearby (both physically and on nearby channels).

There is no setting on the BHM to auto-adjust power.

This is what the Link Status looks like right now.  Maybe the uplink is a 
little hotter

Out of curiosity, what do you have the target signal level from SMs set to on 
the AP?  And as an experiment, if you drop the AP xmt power something like 3-6 
dB, does it have any effect on the symptom?  Cambium says –59 isn’t too hot,

Also, what frequency band?

We're getting these New Session messages quite often on  a new PTP450 
installation.

Everything else looks real peachy.  SNR varying between 32 and 35, Rcv power ~~ 
-59; almost equal V/H ratio, etc.

Any idea what it's trying to tell me?  Is this a problem?  Session timer keeps 
getting rest on some (not all) of these events.

We're running the 13.2 build 34 on link.
