Signal Strengths - Cooper Security i-on40 Programming Reference Manual

i-on40

Signal Strengths

This option allows you check the received signal strength
from all the radio transmitters belonging to the system.
The keypad display shows first: the strength of the most
recent signal it has received from a transmitter, and
second: (in brackets) the minimum strength signal it has
received from the transmitter since the records were last
reset. The control unit is always recording signal
strengths, whether or not you are using the Signal
Strength menu.
Note: If you have fitted a WAM to act as a repeater for
weak detector signals then you will not see any
change in the signal strength reported for those
detectors. However, you should note the signal
strength of the WAM, since that device is now
passing on the information from the detectors whose
signal you are trying to amplify.
To reset the signal strength records press "0" while you
are in the Tests – Signal Strength menu. When you press
"0" then the control unit resets the signal strength
records for ALL transmitters.
There are four sections to the Signal Strength menu:
Detector Signals, Radio Sirens, Radio Keypads, and WAMs.
Press u or n followed by > to select the section you
want to test.
Detector Signals
The display shows the strength of the most recently
received signal from each learned radio zone (zones 17 to
40). The bottom line of the display shows the zone name.
To see the zone number press < or >.
Radio Siren Signals
The display shows a list of the received signal strengths
from each 760ES siren.
Radio Keypad Signals
The display shows a list of the received signal strengths
from each radio keypad.
