Conduct a Site Survey
B.1.2 RF Scan Test
A Radio Frequency scan test is conducted to assess and measure the background noise and interfer-
ence from other wireless systems if any, in the site. The RF Scan test can be conducted individually
or following the link quality test. An RF Scan test will be conducted for any device with an SLC
address set between 101 and 150 at the end of a Link Quality Test.

Conduct an RF Scan Test

To conduct an RF scan test, follow the same procedure for a link quality test. However, the device
addresses for an RF scan test must start at 101 and have the subsequent devices address set as 102,
103, etc. Each device will conduct the link quality test as described above, then transition to the RF
scan test 5 minutes after the last link quality test is performed to or from that device.
If several devices are being tested, it is possible that some devices will start and complete the link
test and progress to the RF scan test while other devices are finishing the link quality test. The RF
Scan test may take up to 70 minutes. The time remaining and the test status are displayed at the
device using the LEDs. The LED patterns are shown below.

B.1.3 Retrieving Site Survey Results
To retrieve the site survey results:
1.
Return the device to "Pending Site Survey" or "Factory Default" mode. This is done by
tampering devices that have completed a link quality test or by rebooting devices that have
completed an RF scan test.
CAUTION:
!
DO NOT CLEAR THE TAMPER ON A DEVICE THAT IS IN THE "PENDING SITE SURVEY" STATE
OR THE EXISTING RESULTS WILL BE REPLACED.
2.
Plug the USB adapter into the laptop/PC where SWIFT Tools has been installed.
3.
Bring the devices within a range of approximately 20 feet from the USB adapter connected to
the laptop/PC.
4.
Logon to SWIFT Tools and retrieve the data.
