Note: The size and shape of the NIRC3 base station coverage areas in the above illustrations
are theoretical. In practice the coverage can be distorted by environmental influences such
as metal objects, strong magnetic fields and other sources of RF radiation.

Testing the NIRC3 base station Coverage Area

To perform an RF coverage test the following equipment is required:
• An NIRC3 room controller.
• An NIRX RF transceiver module (mounted on the NIRC3).
• A USB stick containing a dedicated configuration file required for RF coverage testing.
• An NITX or NIFX that is set to "Storage" or "RF test" mode.
To set up the equipment for the RF coverage test, plug the USB stick into the NIRC3 room controller and
power on the NIRC3.
Note: A module that is set to "Storage" mode will be automatically configured to operate
in the "RF test" test mode when the call button is pressed for the first time. For detailed
information on how to put the NITX or NIFX in RF test mode manually, refer to "Appendix -
Wireless Planning Considerations" of the teleCARE IP Configuration Manual "TD
92610EN".
