You should test each device you have enrolled to ensure good signal strength
between the devices and the PC4164-RS. 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-RS to a better location. (See section 2.3 for tips on finding a location for the
PC4164-RS.)
4.1 Test the Placement of WLS904, WLS905, WLS906 and
WLS907 Devices
It is very important to test each wireless device before it is mounted. Following
these steps will test the placement of WLS904, WLS905, WLS906, and WLS907
wireless devices, based on the signal strength between the PC4164-RS and the device:
NOTE
: You cannot test the Panic Pendant (WLS908), Wireless Key (WLS909), and
Handheld Keypad (WLS910) in this mode
. See section 4.2 for instructions on testing
these devices.
1. Temporarily place the device in its intended mounting location.
2. At a system LCD keypad, enter [*][8][Installer’s code].
3. Enter Ref # [001303] to go to the Device Test section.
4. Enter [00] to have test results sounded on the keypad buzzers only. Enter [01]
to have test results sounded by the system bells, as well as the keypad buzzers.
5. Use the [<][>] keys to scroll to the device and press [*] to select it. The keypad
will display Activate Device.
6. Activate the device being tested. A result will be displayed on the keypad or
sounded by the keypad or bell.
WLS904:
Remove the detector from its backplate, wait for 5 seconds, then
reattach the detector to its backplate.
WLS906:
Hold the supplied magnet near the raised line on the outer rim of the
bracket. When the sounder on the WLS906 activates, remove the magnet.
WLS905 & WLS907:
Open and close the contact by moving the magnet away
from the unit. If the unit is attached to a door or a window, open and close the
door or window to activate the device.
