It is advisable to place antennas temporarily until coverage has been tested.
Once antennas have been temporarily placed, test the coverage zone by
putting a beltpack in
Site Survey mode and walking through the area
monitoring signal strength.
3.2 Site survey
A site survey involves temporary placement of antennas while testing
coverage (area covered by radio frequency) and capacity (how many
beltpacks can be supported) by the system.
After placing the antenna(s) in a temporary way, a beltpack user walks
through all the areas where beltpack users will typically be moving, noting
any areas of weak signal, dropout, or disconnection of the system.
For extensive or complicated systems, it is helpful to draw a map of the area
with antenna placement and corresponding RF cells. For a smaller system,
just testing one antenna in
Standalone mode may be sufficient.
To test coverage areas, put the beltpack into Site Survey mode.
