I found out what was causing my 5.2 BH link so many problems… The master BH was receiving sync via timing port. When I switched it to Generate or Receive from Power, it stabilized. Before, the RSSI/Power would jump back and forth from -48dbm to -60dbm, and the link tests showed 85%. This is a LOS link .4 miles apart. All is good now.

Why is my 5.2 BH losing power or rebooting every 1.5 hours or so? Has anyone ever seen anything similar? I checked the spectrum and there is NO other 5.2 gear in the area. Checked the cable. The Master does not have any problems. LOS. NO reflector or dish on either BH. This is the event log for today. The customer has the Power Supply pluged into a APC UPS w/ batt. backup. Will try swapping out Power Supply’s, even though this one is new. Thanks for any help.

could be a faulty unit,
swap it out and see what happens, swap it around with the other pair, put the slave where the master iis and the master where the slave is
try changing the master to slave and slave to master

I would suggest bringing the BH's up to 7.1.4 and the latest FPGA. Then post the event log again after bringing it up to 7.1.4.
See first post above.

The posts above said 4.2.3, I recommended 7.1.4. Did I miss something?

No, i just wanted to let the forums know what fixed my problem. We are keeping the bh’s at 4.2.3. No need to upgrade when there isnt a problem!
