How the deployment tool works
The deployment tool basestation and the deployment handset establish a radio link when:
•
the handset is in the deployment mode; and,
• the handset and basestation are within range of one another.
The closer the handset is to the basestation the stronger the link. As the handset moves away
from the basestation, a point is reached where the signal is no longer reliable for telephone
conversations.
When a link is established, the handset emits a continuous 1.4kHz tone and displays a Radio
Signal Strength Indication (RSSI).
Figure 55: Deployment handset link display
The display
, shown in
Figure 55: Deployment handset link display on page 85, means as
follows:
•
A circle and dot indicates a locked signal.
• The antenna symbol indicates a link establishment.
• The number 10 indicates an RSSI value.
• The dash, equal sign and shaded box icons indicate signal strength.
The maximum RSSI is 10. As signal strength diminishes, the number 10 decreases and the
icons disappear. For example, at signal strength 7, the three shaded boxes that are on the
right side of the display disappear. At signal strength 5, all the shaded boxes and one of the
equal sign icons disappear.
