System: This field identifies the current time and Coordinates.
GPS: GPS Satellites Information (Only for GPS Model)
Wireless:
MAC Address: MAC of Remote MIMO WiTDM Bridge.
IP Address: IP of Remote MIMO WiTDM Bridge.
Local RSSI: RSSI of Local Bridge.
Remote RSSI: RSSI of Remote Bridge.

How to Setup MIMO WiTDM Bridge
Get Position, Longitude and Latitude
Get Direction and Azimuth
Signal Status, In Status page, it can show remote bridge Signal Strength for local bridge (Local RSSI) and local
bridge Signal Strength for remote bridge (Remote RSSI). We can decide the best direction of antenna from
following steps:
1. We check the Local RSSI only in one side. (We call it local side.)
2. Fix remote side antenna, and adjust local side antenna. In local side, check the “Local RSSI” first, to
find a best Local RSSI and then fix the local antenna.

9
3. Adjust the Remote antenna, to find the Best Remote RSSI, and then fix the remote antenna.
4. If “Local RSSI” is changed, and worse than before, adjust local antenna again to get a best one and fix
local antenna.
5. If “Remote RSSI” is changed and worse, adjust remote antenna again.
6. Follow the same ways to get a better Local RSSI and Remote RSSI value. And Fix both side antennas.
