KWS500 Base Station installation do's and don'ts
While surveying for suitable mounting locations, observe the following guidelines for placement
of the KWS500 for optimum coverage:
The KWS500 Base Station should be placed in a central position relative to the expected usage of
the handsets.
The KWS500 Base Station MUST be placed vertically and right-side up. Vertical orientation
may be observed by the KIRK logo on the front of the unit. In addition, the power supply cord
connector is located on the bottom of the base station.
The KWS500 Base Station is typically wall mounted and requires a 9" x 9" mounting area.
Place the KWS500 between six and eight feet above floor level, or higher.
Placing the KWS500 above ceilings or ceiling tiles is not recommended.
Placing the KWS500 behind furniture or other objects that may reduce radio signal penetration is
not recommended.
Painting of the KWS500 or its housing or container (if mounted externally) is not recommended.
Paints contain metallic and/or carbon materials that will reduce radio signal penetration.
Do not place the KWS500 inside a metallic case. Use plastic enclosures for external mounting.
Never mount the KWS500 Base Station to a metallic surface. Metallic surfaces can cause radio
signal reflections.
Do not apply power to the KWS500 until you have read and understood the master handset
programming procedures and are ready to begin the programming process.
After installation, walk through your facility while in a call on a KIRK Handset to verify the
actual coverage provided. The placement of the KWS500 may need to be adjusted to improve
coverage. If needed, KIRK Repeaters may be installed by your KIRK vendor to expand coverage.
Specially wired cable used to connect a laptop PC (running the Administration Program or the
