Systems Manual 65
Drop Oldest
Links Option
This feature can be enabled to better manage the linking of new scan-
ners to a multi-point system. Here’s how it works: When a new scanner
is linked to a Base Station that is already linked to its maximum
amount of scanners, an earlier-linked scanner that has been inactive for
the longest period of time will be automatically unlinked from the sys-
tem to make room for the new scanner.
When this feature is disabled, scanners can be linked up to the maxi-
mum number set via the programming feature, Set Maximum Linked
Scanners, or the default maximum, which is eight scanners. Attempts to
link additional scanners beyond these limits will fail.
Feature is specific to Base Station ONLY
NOTE
Remember, programming changes to the Base Sta-
tion have no effect until the new configuration is
downloaded via the feature Transmit Scanner Con-
figuration to Base Station on page 33.
