5.5 Site Survey by Using PS
The section describes the Site Survey using one the following PSs.
•
For North America: KX-TCA185/KX-TCA285/KX-TCA385/KX-WT125/KX-WT126/KX-TD7685/
KX-TD7695/KX-TD7696
•
For South America: KX-WT115/KX-TCA285
•
For other countries/areas: KX-TCA185/KX-TCA285/KX-TCA385/KX-TCA155/KX-TCA175/KX-TCA256/
KX-TCA275/KX-TCA355/KX-TCA364
The PS has a Radio Signal Test mode that monitors the state of the radio link to the CS for site survey. In
Radio Signal Test mode, the frame loss and signal strength of a synchronous slot, and the signal strength of
the other slots can be measured when the PS is monitoring the CS. After installing the CSs temporarily as
planned during site planning, set the PS to Radio Signal Test mode and locate each CS to measure its coverage
area. Then, record the results on the map of the installation site.
Notice
•
An incorrectly performed site survey may cause CSs to reset due to synchronization failure. Therefore,
it is necessary to conduct the site survey and plan the location of CSs with extreme care.
•
The reception of radio signals can vary depending on your handset. For example, when the radio signal
strength is weak, some handsets may be out of range when other handsets are not. In this case,
reconduct site planning, and add or relocate CSs as necessary.
•
For details about performing the site survey with CSs only (i.e., without using a PS), refer to "3.3 Site
Survey".
