Address any long term drop in RSL and erratic or unsteady RSL  Some RSL changes are  expected and weather patterns and the related multipath can cause dramatic RSL changes resulting in  system outage  However  that outage should not occur at a significantly greater rate than the designed  long term performance  Consult the path design engineer for more information about link reliability  expectations and anticipated RSL deviation     In addition  regular inspection of the transmission system  RF cables and antennas  and paying close  attention to changes along the path  such as construction or tree height  or new microwave radio  installations nearby  can be extremely helpful and proactive     When link performance is very poor  alarms on the radio front panel and within the radio s  management system indicates particular failures  Consult this manual for more information on the  specific alarms and diagnostics  or contact Exalt Customer Care for assistance     Exalt Customer Care is primarily motivated to determine if the radio hardware is faulty and require  return for repair  and to help execute an effective and efficient repair and return process for radio  terminals believed to be faulty  However  Exalt Customer Care provides advice regarding the total  radio system and RF path engineering and environment  and advises on troubleshooting     End users should first contact the installer and or designer of the system  In many cases  an in depth  understanding of RF design
