New in R2.4B: Roaming RSSI per site

On 20 July, Motorola released R2.4B firmware for the second generation MOTORBO radios. In this system release, there are some important enhancements which I will detail here.

It is now possible to define a Roaming RSSI threshold per site, in IPSC and LCP. Previously only one Roaming RSSI level could be defined.
This is particularly useful if there are significant differences between the relative signal strengths from multiple sites in a system: the site with the best coverage and strongest signal could have a higher Roaming RSSI threshold thus preventing all the radios roaming to it.

In IPSC

Roaming Per-Site RSSI Threshold in IPSC.
Ticking the Use Per-Site RSSI Threshold in the Roam List un-greys the RSSI Threshold spinbox in the channel. Note that the channel should preferably be in the Channel Pool and IP Site needs to be ticked. The channel also needs to be in one of the roam lists.
These videos describe how to set up IPSC in the radios and repeaters.

In LCP

In LCP, ticking the Use Per-Site RSSI Threshold in the Site List un-greys the RSSI Threshold column in the site table.
These videos describe how to set up LCP.
