OVERVIEW

AL-NSM Networx Signal Meter

Performs a site survey test of the premises to:



find the optimum location for Networx
Gateways relative to Networx locks



find the optimum location for Networx
locks relative to Networx Gateways



determine the optimum number of Net-
worx Gateways required to cover the
signal area of the Networx locks you
plan to install



perform diagnostic testing of existing
Networx Gateway radio signals within
your installation environment

Using the various available Modes, the

AL-

NSM

(hereafter referred to as the "

NSM

" ) can also meas-

ure radio noise levels, calculate overall signal quality, discov-
er Networx locks not yet assigned to Gateways, and even
send a "locate" signal (causing all unassigned locks to
"beep").

Depending on how you use the

NSM

(see the "

TYPICAL

SCENARIOS

" section), the

NSM

can work by itself, in

conjunction with DL-Windows (version 5.0 and later) and a
Networx Gateway (version 3.91 and later) using the
"Gateway Signal Test Mode" feature in DL-Windows or with
the

AL-NSG Networx Signal Generator

, explained below.

Note:

For more information about the " Gateway Signal

Test Mode" feature, see OI383

Networx Signal Generator

As mentioned above, the

NSM

Signal Meter

may be used

with either an existing operational
Gateway or the portable

AL-NSG

Networx Signal Generator

. The

AL-NSG

(hereafter referred to as

the "

NSG

") is a portable battery-

powered Gateway simulation de-
vice that generates continuous
Gateway radio signals to an

NSM

Depending on how you use the

NSG

(see the "

TYPICAL SCENARIOS

" section), the

NSG

can be placed in the proposed location for a Networx Gate-
way or in the proposed location of a Networx lock, to deter-
mine the acceptability and the dependability of the radio sig-
