9. The detection area test (Picture 16) is required to make sure that the sensors
are working e cient in their current position. In testing mode the sensor light is
on permanently, switching off for 1 second while activation – it is very easy to
observe. In contrast to radio signal test, the detection area test for several
sensors simultaneously is possible. For this, choose the check-box against each
device in the window “Area detection test”, having opened previously the test
window by pressing the button of magnifying glass against the selected sensor.
The
key fob does not support the detection area tests and radio
signal tests.

Managing the central unit
1. It is necessary to install the ocBridge Plus near the alarm system central unit
(panel). Do not install the receiver in the metal box, it will worsen considerably
the radio signal receiving from the wireless sensors. If installation in the metal
box is indispensable, it is necessary to connect an external antenna. On the
ocBridge Plus board, there are pads for installing SMA-sockets for external
antennas.
When connected to the central unit, the wires (especially the power wires) must not
touch the antenna as they can worsen the connection quality. ocBridge Plus’s radio
antennas must be as far as possible from the alarm system GSM-module in case there is
such a module.
2. With a help of ordinary wires, the receiver’s outputs (PictureS 17, 18) are
connected to the alarm system central unit inputs. Thus, the receiver’s outputs
are analogues of ordinary wire sensors for the central unit inputs. When the
wireless sensor is activated, it sends the signal to ocBridge Plus. The ocBridge
