Site Survey Mode
This function can be used to measure the transmission quality, and identify problematic transmission areas of
the repeater installation. This function can be used when registered or de-registered.
WARNING
•
When installing or testing a product with an external AC adaptor, the AC adaptor should be
plugged into a wall outlet or floor-mounted AC outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to a
ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the weight of the adaptor may cause it to become disconnected.
•
Completely insert the AC adaptor/power plug into the AC outlet. Failure to do so may cause
electric shock and/or excessive heat resulting in a fire.
Note
•
The repeater’s Site Survey mode works independently from the CS. This means that the CS does not
have to be placed into Site Survey mode.
•
When using more than 1 repeater in Site Survey mode simultaneously, please ensure repeaters are
set to different channels.
1.
While pressing and holding down the PROGRAM button, turn on the repeater by connecting the AC
adaptor.
The STATUS LED will flash red.
2.
Continue to hold down the PROGRAM button for 5 seconds.
The STATUS LED will flash red quickly.
Note
If you continue to hold down the PROGRAM button for 10 seconds, the repeater will enter
De-registration mode.
3.
Release the PROGRAM button.
The STATUS LED will flash red to indicate the current channel number, and a carrier sense will start to
check whether the current channel is available (idle) or not.
4.
If the current channel is available, the STATUS LED will change to flash green.
Site Survey mode on the current channel is now operational.
Note
A carrier sense is performed regularly in Site Survey mode. If the selected channel is not available
(busy), the STATUS LED will flash red to indicate the channel number and the repeater will stop
transmitting.
5.
Activate the site survey function on the PS to measure the radio signal strength level. The repeater CSID
is 1234567890.
Note
•
It is recommended that the radio signal strength level is "03" or greater.

For details about using the PS during a site survey, refer to the appropriate CS Quick Installation
Guide.
