1. From the main screen, select Wireless by pressing the
middle arrow button below the screen.
2. Choose Ping Network by either selecting the
corresponding number on the number pad or by
scrolling through the options with the up and down
arrow buttons and selecting with the ENTER button.
3. Select Ping by pressing the left-most arrow button

identify the closest ZigBee network. If the M-Unit fails
to find a ZigBee network, try the test again by pressing
the left-most arrow button below the screen to select
Ping. If multiple attempts fail, troubleshoot the
Gateway hosting the ZigBee service.
4. A bar will illuminate on screen identifying the ZigBee
signal strength as either Very Good, Good or
Unacceptable. View the illustration below for varying
signal strength indicators. It is recommended to stay
within the Green range to limit service interruptions to
the lock. If the range is within the Red area, either
move the Gateway closer to the lock, or add an
additional Gateway to extend the range. Once an
acceptable range is decided, install the E-Plex lock at
the desired location.
To determine correct lock placement in comparison to
Gateway location, the M-Unit can ping a ZigBee network
to determine signal strength from the Gateway. Follow
