How the deployment tool works
The deployment tool basestation and the deployment handset establishes a radio link under
the following circumstances:
• the handset is in the deployment mode
• the handset and basestation are within range of one another
The closer the handset is to the basestation the stronger the link. As the handset moves away
from the basestation, a point is reached where the signal is no longer reliable for telephone
conversations.
After a link is established, the handset emits a continuous 1.4 kHz tone and displays an RSSI
value.
Figure 58: Deployment handset link display
The display, shown in Figure 58: Deployment handset link display on page 214, indicates the
following.
• A dot within a circle indicates a locked signal.
• The antenna symbol indicates a link establishment.
• The number 10 indicates an RSSI value.
• The dash, equal sign and shaded box icons indicate signal strength.
The maximum RSSI is 10. As signal strength diminishes, the number 10 decreases and the
icons disappear. For example, at signal strength 7, the three shaded boxes that are on the
right side of the display disappear. At signal strength 5, all the shaded boxes and one of the
equal sign icons disappear.
