Panasonic KX-TDA600

2.10.5 Site Survey Using
the KX-TCA255/KX-TCA256/KX-TCA355/
KX-TD7590
The PS has a Radio Signal Test mode that monitors the state of the radio link to the CS for site survey. In
Radio Signal Test mode, the frame loss and signal strength of a synchronous slot, and the signal strength of
the other slots can be measured when the PS is monitoring the CS. After installing the CSs temporarily as
planned during site planning, set the PS to Radio Signal Test mode and locate each CS to measure its coverage
area. Then, record the results on the map of the installation site.
Testing the Radio Signal Strength
After locating the CS(s) temporarily, execute the Radio Signal Test using the PS. Directly after entering Radio
Signal Test mode, the PS scans channel 0 for a CS that it can connect to. The channel to be scanned can be
changed by pressing the appropriate keys 0 through 9.
1. Enter Radio Signal Test mode.

*4: Radio signal strength level
*5: Frame error
(0000 to 9999)/Frame counter (0000 to 9999). Frame error indicates the number of errors
out of 10 000 radio signal receptions. An increased number of frame errors indicates greater radio signal
interference and more frequent noise during conversation. The ideal number of frame errors is "0000".
Note
Storing the scan data will clear all directory data.
