Editing a Neighbor Plan

Further down the page you will find the Editing section:

Start Page > Optimization > Parameter Optimization > Neighbor Planning > Editing

This lets you connect or disconnect neighbor relations using the selected set of radios.

The Connect Selected Radios button adds neighbor relations to the selected radios to link them all up. For example, suppose we have three radios in our network and that we have selected all of them. Clicking this button will assign the following neighbor lists:

  • A: B, C
  • B: A, C
  • C: A, B

The Disconnect Selected Radios button removes neighbor relations from the selected radios. For example, suppose we have three radios in our network with the neighbor plan above. If we select B and C and click this button, the resulting neighbor plan will look like this:

  • A: B, C
  • B: A
  • C: A

This is, C has been removed from B's list, and B has been removed from C's list.

The Select All Radios button simply selects every radio in your project.
