esting the PHB (Range Test)
1.
Locate the MODE button on the rear of the MXD-LTE and press it once (Figure 5).
2.
The MXD-LTE will announce
“Range Test Mode.”
3.
Immediately activate the PHB by pressing and holding down the button. A green light will illuminate
on the PHB and the MXD-LTE will sound a steady tone while it is detecting the PHB being pressed.
4.
While activating the PHB, walk around all areas of the home and yard. Listen for gaps in the tone.
Gaps indicate “dead zones” where the PHB is not detected. If “dead zones” are detected, try
relocating the MXD-LTE and/or contact your service provider.
5.
To finish the Range Test, stop pressing the PHB. After the tone stops, press the RESET button on the
rear of the MXD-LTE (Figure 5). The unit will announce the
“System Ready.”
Testing the MXD-LTE
Note: The manufacturer recommends that the MXD-LTE be tested at least every 30 days. Most
response centers welcomes regular testing. Attendants are available 24 hours a day to help. Please
check with your provider concerning their testing policy.
1.
Press the PHB and wait for the response center attendant to speak to you through the MXD-LTE.
2.
When the attendant answers, simply inform him/her that you are doing a test.
Turning off the MXD-LTE
Note: When the MXD-LTE is removed from service and/or
relocated, it is very important to turn it off to preserve the
battery and to keep the unit from initiating inadvertent
alarms while in transit.
1.
Unplug the MXD-LTE from the AC outlet.
2.
Place the power switch in the off (“0”) position and wait
until the status light stops blinking.
Resetting the MXD-LTE
Locate the reset button on the rear of the MXD-LTE.
1.
Soft reset: briefly pressing the reset button returns the unit to its normal standby state from an
alarmed state or any of the available modes.
2.
Hard reset: hold the reset button down for 5 seconds to reboot the cellular radio.
