Measure of the wireless link quality Wireless link quality between devices can be measured using two indicators: dB units Simply decibel units. RSSI units RSSI is the acronym of “Radio Signal Strength Indicator” and it is obtained from the measure of the wireless signal quality (in dB units) and the noise level (still in dB units).
4. Insert the battery connector’s jack plug into the SGWE power supply socket; this socket is located on the top side of the SGWE. SGWE is now ready for use. Picture 3b ARGUS SECURITY S.R.L. - Via del Canneto, 14 - 34015 - Muggia (TS) - Italy www.argussecurity.it...

Survey detector 1. By rotating it clockwise, remove the survey detector from its support base (picture 4). 2. Extract the battery cover from the bottom of the detector. 3. Insert both CR123A batteries into their detector’s housing (picture 5). Batteries polarities must match the indicated polarity on the detector. 4.
