The customer could reduce the maximum Tx power used by the WF(M)200 using setting in the Platform Data Set (PDS) file.
Thank to this file, the customer could set some specific parameters for his application. This PDS file is loaded with the firmware in the WF(M)200.
The customer could set the maximun Tx power using the field MAX_OUTPUT_POWER_QDBM:
/* Power configuration */
/***********************/
// Tx power-related information
MAX_TX_POWER_CFG: {
// The max Tx power value in Quarter of dBm (QDBM).
// Resultant covered range in dBm: [-32; 31.75]
MAX_OUTPUT_POWER_QDBM: 80,
The MAX_OUTPUT_POWER_QDBM to 80 means a maximum threshold Tx power of 20dBm.
This is a TX power limitation for all channels and all PHY rate. It is not an adaptative setting.

This is a TX power limitation for all channels and all PHY rate. It is not an adaptative setting.
In order to get this maximum Tx power limitation in the PDS file taken into account by the WF(M)200, it should be compressed and installed properly and reloaded.
