Network - DSC iotega WS900UL Reference Manual

Placement Test
This test is used to determine the RF signal status for wireless devices and can be performed on the installer portal or at the
individual device. For instructions on placement testing at the device, refer to the installation sheet included with the wire-
less equipment.
Two test results are provided:
24 Hour: The iotega displays RF test results from the enrolled device received over a 24 hour period.
Now: The iotega displays RF test results from the last placement test.
Note: For vanishing door contacts and wireless keys, the device must be triggered in order to get a result.

Cellular Test Transmission
Ethernet and Cellular test transmissions check to see if the selected communication path between the iotega and the cent-
ral monitoring station is functioning correctly.
Both Ethernet/Cellular 1 (primary receiver) and Ethernet/Cellular 2 (secondary receiver) can be tested separately based on
individual reporting configurations. Test transmissions can also be configured to alternate between primary and secondary
receivers. For details, see "Alternate Test Transmission" on page 1.
Test transmission time and test transmission cycle can be programmed for both primary and secondary receivers. See "Cen-
tral Monitoring Station Programming Options" on page 17 for more details.
