Alignment Tone
For coarse alignment of the SM/BHS, use the Alignment Tool located at Tools -> Alignment Tool.
Optionally, connect a headset alignment tone kit to the AUX/SYNC port of the SM/BHS and listen to the
alignment tone, which indicates greater SM/BHS receive signal power by pitch. By adjusting the
SM’s/BHS’s position until the highest frequency pitch is obtained operators and installers can be
confident that the SM/BHS is properly positioned. For information on device GUI tools available for
alignment, see sections
Aiming page and Diagnostic LED – SM/BHS on page 2-332 , Using the Link
Capacity Test tool on page 2-338 and Using AP Evaluation tool on page 2-348 .
