Basic Station with iC880A station.conf File

Hello together,

I have a gateway running with the iC880A Concentrator and the Basic Station.
It is running as well now.

I am currently in the process of creating the configuration file for the station.

How can I set the Tx Power? Cause this has a maximum value of 14dbm EIRP in Europe.

How can I set/synchronise the time? As you can see in the picture, the time does not match exactly by 2h. I have set the PPS to false, as I don’t have a GPS.

PC Time:
Time

Basic Station:
basicstation

Station.conf File:

station_conf
Thanks for Help!

I believe the 14dbm limit is set allowing for standard 2 (actually 2.15) dbi ant giving EIRP of 16.1dBm. If you look at your 16 and further down in the .conf file the antenna_gain is set as 2 which then matches :slight_smile:

Thanks for the answer, however I think EIRP = 14 dbm as max including antenna gain. And if I set the antenna_gain to 0 in the .conf file nothing changes in the TX power.

GIYF - ERP vs EIRP :wink:

Ah, Thanks for the reminder!

EIRP (max) = 16.15 dBm
ERP (max) = 14 dBm

So only the Time Sync/Stamp Problem remains, any Idee for this?

Thanks
