Commissioning

This section describes the visual inspection and tests that must be executed after completing
the installation and initialization of the IP-DECT system. The purpose of the visual inspection
and tests is to verify that all installation activities have resulted in a correctly functioning system.
If it appears that a part is malfunctioning while the system is installed correctly (that is, no
cabling faults, no configuration faults), the technician must consult the maintenance section
included in this manual for fault finding.

Radio coverage verification tests

The radio coverage verification consists of two tests:

Base station operation test

l

Coverage area test

l
Note: Be sure that all batteries in the handset are charged before executing the tests.
Base Station Operation Test
The purpose of this test is to check if all base stations are operational.
1. Put a handset in the service display mode (DCA mode), see applicable User Manual for
the handset.
2. Use the base station plan, see the applicable System Planning documentation for
IP-DECT.
3. Move close to each base station and check that the handset locks to it (the service display
should display the correct number).
After having checked that all base stations are operational proceed with the coverage area test.
Coverage Area Test
The purpose of this test is to verify that there is satisfactory field strength to enable good speech
quality everywhere within the covered area (rooms, lift shafts, staircases). This test is executed
with two handsets and requires two persons.
1. Place the handset in the service display mode (DCA mode) and call the other handset.
One user of the handset should now start moving around the covered area. Both users
must check that a good speech quality is maintained everywhere. Special attention
should be paid to areas such as edges of the building and areas behind metal
structures where there is a possibility of reduced speech quality.
