You should test each device you have enrolled to ensure good signal strength between
the devices and the PC4164-433 receiver. Follow the instructions in this section to test
wireless devices which use zones, wireless keys and handheld keypads.
If several wireless devices produce BAD test results, you may need to move the PC4164-433 to
a better location (see section 2.3 for tips on finding a location for the PC4164-433 module).
4.1 Test the Placement of the Wireless Detectors
It is very important to test each wireless device before it is mounted. Following these
steps will test the placement of (P)WLS904/(P)WLS904P(L)-433, WLS906-433,
(P)WLS907(T)-433, WLS912L-433, (P)WLS914-433 (North America only), (P)WLS925L-
433 & WLS935L-433 wireless devices, based on the signal strength between the PC4164-
433 module and the device:
NOTE: You cannot test the wireless key (WLS9X9-433) in this mode
. See section 4.2 for
instructions on testing wireless keys.

Remove the detector
from the backplate, wait for the result to be presented, then re-attach the detector to its
backplate.
WLS906-433:
Hold the supplied magnet near the raised line on the outer rim of the
bracket. Wait for the result to be presented. The magnet can now be removed and
the next result must be waited for.
(P)WLS907(T)-433/(P)WLS925L-433/WLS935L-433:
Open the contact by moving the
magnet away from the unit. If the unit is attached to a door or a window, open the
door or window to activate the device. Wait for the result to be presented. Close
the contact by moving the magnet near the unit. If the unit is attached to a door or
a window, close the door or window to restore the device. Wait for the result to be
presented.
WLS912L-433:
Press and hold the test mode tab. Wait for the result to be presented.
Release the test mode tab. Wait for the result to be presented.

For PC4020/P-16128 v3.2 system, the system keypad will also display the number
of PC4164-433 receivers that reported the highest level result (e.g., “Placement Good
by 2 Receivers”).
Devices indicating a bad result must be moved to another location. You may only
have to move the device a few inches to correct a bad result.
NOTE: Do not mount any device where a “bad” test result was indicated.
If several wireless devices produce BAD test results, you may need to move the
PC4164-433 receiver to a better location (see section 2.3 for tips on finding a location
for the PC4164-433).

To test another device, press [#] once, then repeat steps 4 to 7. Continue to test the
devices until both the PC4164-433 receiver and the devices are in good or fair locations.
9.
To exit Installer Programming, press [#].
4.2 Test Wireless Key Reception
The wireless key (WLS909-433/WLS919-433) cannot be tested using the module
placement test described above. To ensure that the PC4164-433 is receiving transmissions
from these devices, conduct the following tests:
Use the function keys to arm and disarm the system at several different points in the
installation.
NOTE: Do not use a Fire, Auxiliary or Panic key to test your WLS9X9-433, as pressing these
buttons will
always
notify your central station of a non-medical emergency.
If these devices do not operate from all points in the installation, you will need to move the
PC4164-433 receiver. Moving the PC4164-433 higher will usually improve the reception.
If you move the PC4164-433 receiver, repeat the tests described in sections 4.1 and 4.2 on
all the wireless devices. Continue to test the devices until you have found locations
with good or fair placement results for all wireless detectors, and there is acceptable
range between the PC4164-433 and the WLS9X9 devices.
4.3 Mount the PC4164-433 Receiver and Wireless Devices
Do not permanently mount the PC4164-433 until you have tested reception with all the
wireless devices (see sections 4.1 and 4.2). Once you have done this and have a good
location, mount the PC4164-433:
1. Remove the four screws that attach the PC4164-433 module to the plastic cabinet.
2. Pull the Combus wires through the hole at the back of the cabinet.
3. Mount the cabinet securely to the wall.
4. Reattach the PC4164-433 module to the mounted cabinet using the 4 mounting screws.
Mount the Wireless Detectors
If you have conducted the placement test described in section 4.1 and got 3 “Good” or
“Fair” results in a row for each device, you can mount the wireless devices. See the
installation sheet for each device for mounting instructions.
