Library: Transmitter elements

To create or modify a library transmitter element, select the Transmitters command from the Library pull-down menu. This activates the Transmitter Library window which displays a list of existing transmitter elements in the library. If no transmitters were created previously by the user, the list will contain at least the DEFAULT transmitter element:

The following functions are available in that dialog:

• To create a new receiver, click on the Add button;
• To edit an existing receiver, select it in the list and click on the Edit button;
• To delete an existing receiver, select it in the list and click on the Delete button;
• To duplicate an existing receiver, select it in the list and click on the Duplicate button. The reference to the new transmitter is derived from the reference of the selected one by incrementing the integer suffix of that reference, if any, or adding character 1 to the end of it.

If pressing the Add or Edit buttons, the Transmitter edit dialog window is displayed:

The parameters of transceiver are grouped under four different tabs:

• General - to define transmitter name (unique identifier) and description;
• Antenna - to define a specific antenna to be associated with that particular transmitter. Note that user could select one of the existing antenna library elements or define completely new antenna parameters to be associated only with the given transmitter;
• Power - to define transmitter output power, emissions function, as well as power control settings, if necessary;
• Coverage/Traffic? - to define typical coverage area for given transmitter and associated traffic (activity) parameters, as appropriate.
