Interpreting the portable's tones

553-3601-106 Standard 2.00 September 1996
Figure 9 : Fully raised CDT
Note: The CDT stand is available in three heights: 8 ft (2.4 m), 12 ft (3.6 m)
and 16 ft (4.8 m).
Do not position your CDT transceiver next to large concrete or marble
columns. These structures affect the contour of the cell boundary. Keep the
CDT transceiver at least 40 in. (1 m) from columns.
The portable makes the following tones to indicate how close you are to the
CDT transceiver:
• Steady tone—The signal strength is stronger than the cell boundary
value.
• Double beep, followed by a rhythmic high-low tone—The signal
strength is weaker than the cell boundary value. The rhythmic high-low
tone persists as long as you remain where the signal strength is weak.
