ShowLink Test
Perform a ShowLink test to find the boundaries of the ShowLink coverage area between linked devices. When a ShowLink
testisactivated,afivebardisplayindicatingthelinkqualityisshownonthescreen.Asthedevicesaremovedapart,thenum
ber of bars will decrease. ShowLink control is maintained as long as 1 bar is displayed.
If the device is beyond the coverage range, ShowLink control is not possible. However, the audio signal will not be affected or
interrupted as long as the receiver is within range of the RF signal.
To improve coverage, adjust the location of your devices or place additional access points to extend coverage.
Tip: During a ShowLink test, press O to drop a marker in Wireless Workbench.
Test coverage of linked transmitters
Perform a ShowLink test from the Tx Slots menu to plot the status of a linked transmitter's ShowLink coverage. When your
device is in direct mode, this function measures the coverage between your transmitter and the ADX5D; when your device is in
network mode, this function measures the coverage between your transmitter and the AD610 it is associated with.
Go to the channel menu and select Tx Slots > SL Test.
Position your equipment where you expect it to be when in use.
On the receiver, press the O button to start the test.
Walk the transmitter around the coverage area. Monitor the number of bars displayed and the state of the ShowLink
icon. Coverage boundaries are indicated by 0 bars displayed or the ShowLink icon is empty.
Press X to exit the ShowLink test.

Position the AD610 where you expect it to be when in use.
On the receiver, press the O button to start the test.
Walk the receiver around the coverage area. Monitor the number of bars displayed and the state of the ShowLink icon.
Coverage boundaries are indicated by 0 bars displayed or the ShowLink icon is empty.
