Repeater – Signal Strength Alert
Indication

it will communicate with the rooftop unit.

Repeater – Placement and Confirming
Location (Test)
The wireless repeater has no test functionality to

of the RTU. To test a desired location for signal
strength, use the following procedure:
1. Take a battery powered wireless sensor that is
already connected to the BLE network to the
desired location.
2. Hold the beaconing button for five seconds
and release.
3. Observe the status of the signal strength LED
(see Table 1. Sensor LED Descriptions on
page 17).
NOTE: Wait 5 to 20 seconds for the test to com-
pete and observe the signal strength
LED.
