To define the noise level threshold value:
1. From the installer Programming menu, select 7 > 2 > 1 (Install >WL Device >
RX Calibration); CHOOSE RECEIVER (wireless expander) displays.
2. Scroll to select the wireless expander module, and then press OK ( ); the most
recently measured result (“THOLD”) for that Wireless Expander module
displays.
3. Press to toggle to N (no), and then press ; the most recently measured
result displays again, over which you can now enter a new threshold value
(between 11—86), and then press .
Performing a Wireless Comm. Test for Measuring Signal Strength
A Wireless Communication test result (the signal strength between the wireless
device and the main panel) must be higher than the background noise measured at
the main panel. If the background noise level is higher, you will most likely need to
move the wireless device to a better location.
IMPORTANT: To perform a Wireless Communication test, you will first need to
exit the installer Programming menu. If you then ever need to go back to the
installer Programming menu, leave DIP switch 2 in the OFF position, otherwise it
will reset installer, sub-installer and Grand Master codes to default factory settings.
To perform a Wireless Communication test:
1. Exit the installer Programming menu (see Step 2: Exiting Installer Programming
Menu after Initial System Configuration, page 52).
2. Ensure all wireless devices are activated.
3. Enter the installer code (default is 1111), and then press OK ( ).
4. Scroll to Maintenance, then press ; you are in installer Maintenance menu.
5. Scroll to Wireless Test, then press ; Zones displays.
6. At Zones, press ; Comm. Test displays.
7. At Comm. Test, press .
8. Scroll through all wireless zones to view each of their results. The test results
range from 11 (lowest) to 86 (highest), and display as per this example:
ZONE 025
001) ZONE 025:86
EXPLANATION:
001= Wireless device index number, 025=zone,: 86 = result (signal strength)
