Checking The Detector Range; Checking The Signal Strength Of The Detector - Abus Secvest 2WAY Installation Instructions Manual

3.2 Checking the detector range

End training by pressing Next and going Back to the main menu. Go to Installer
Menu Test Walk Test and carry out a walk test by triggering an alarm
message (A).
As smoke detectors do not have a tamper contact, only the alarm is displayed (A).
The display with the number of tested zones without tamper contacts remains.
On detectors with tamper switches, the tamper message is displayed (T), then the
alarm display (A) when the detector is triggered.
Select Test

Go to the floor where installation is to be made and trigger the previously trained
detectors.
"A" should be shown next to every zone.
Select Walk Test
T = Tamper
Information:
A = Alarm

3.3 Checking the signal strength of the detector

The detector signal strength test is made in the same way as the walk test.
The displayed signal strength corresponds to the reception strength of the last
received signal on this detector.
The signal strength must be higher than 3 for satisfactory wireless communication. If
the detector signal is too weak, use a repeater (accessory module) to ensure good
wireless communication.
Select the Detector Signals menu item.
The signal strength is displayed next to the tested zone.
The signal strength display is automatically updated every 5 minutes.
