Wireless Test Mode
You can determine sound clarity, signal strength, and voice quality using
Wireless Test Mode. By performing the tests as you walk around the area
in which the handset will be used, you can determine the extent of the
handset’s range and the voice quality throughout the area of coverage.
You also can use Wireless Test Mode to find out the identification
number of a handset and its matching radio module. This can help
you identify your handset if there are multiple MDW 9000 phones in
the same area and the handsets get mixed up. Or, you can use it to
isolate a handset’s matching radio module for repair purposes.
The following procedure provides instructions for all of the Wireless
Test Mode tests. You can perform the tests multiple times and in any
order; and you can exit at any time by pressing [
On/Off
].
