KEY-RKPZ
This option allows you check the received signal strength from KEY-RKPZ radio
keypads belonging to the system.
The display shows first: the strength of the most recent signal it has received from the
keypad, and second: (in brackets) the minimum strength signal it has received from
the keypadsince the records were last reset. The control unit is always recording
signal strengths, whether or not you are using the Signal Strength menu.
A minimum reading of 2 is acceptable. (When reading from the web interface or other
software, a minimum reading of 4 is needed if the control unit is in User mode, or 2 if
it is in Installer mode.)
To reset the signal strength records press “D” while you are in the

menu. When you press “D”, the control unit resets the signal strength
records for ALL radio keypads.
You can also reset the signal strength record of an individual radio keypad. To do this
press “#” while the display shows the signal strength of the radio keypad you wish to
reset.
