shutdown
The handheld wireless signal level meter automatically goes into low power
mode after four minutes of inactivity to extend battery life.
Low power mode can be activated manually by pressing the "Off " button.
In low power mode, pressing any button returns the device to the previous
status.
Note: during the Ping Test, the Off button only switches the device to low
power mode for a few seconds.
Note: If the handheld wireless signal level meter is not used for an extended
period (a few weeks) the batteries should be removed.
Battery Life
The estimated battery life is 26 hours of continuous operation of the device.
(power consumption 12J/minute, battery power 19000J, --> 19000/12 = 1580
min = 26.3 hours)
12.21 Notes on operation
The ZigBee handheld wireless signal level meter has been designed for use
when installing a new network of devices.
It identifi es the number of Routers and Access Points that are accessible from
the position where the ping test is performed.
The ping test also provides information on the strength of the wireless signal
on the Routers and Access Points in the vicinity, highlighting whether the
connections are good or have a low signal.
The installation guidelines require each Router to be within radio range of at
least two other Routers. The same applies to the sensors; indeed, each sensor
should be connected with a good signal to at least two diff erent Router
devices (or Access Points).
Where installation restrictions limit the optimum positioning of the Router and
sensors, the handheld wireless signal level meter can help identify the best
position for the additional Routers that must be installed in order to cover the
areas not reached by the wireless signal.
