3 Connecting Your Commander Pulse
These instructions are a guide to the installation and basic
configuration of the Commander Pulse.
Step 1: Siting your Commander Pulse Unit
Environment
The Commander Pulse must be located in dry area and not
exposed to excessive levels of heat, dust, damp or high
humidity. The Commander Pulse should not be located near
sources of electromagnetic radiation, such as large electrical
systems, electrical motors, lift machinery, electric arc welders,
refrigerators, air conditioners, etc.
Power point locations
The Commander Pulse requires its own dedicated power point.
Do not share the power point with large current appliance such
as air conditioners, photocopiers, fridges, fax machines etc.
An extension power cord should not be used to reach the power
point.
Telephone line socket locations
Two PSTN phone lines can be connected to the Commander
Pulse. You will need to identify were these sockets are. If these
sockets are not located in the near vicinity of where you require
the Commander Pulse, additional cabling is required. A licensed
ACMA cabler must install this cabling.
Locating the unit for optimum wireless coverage
The unit is equipped with two wireless transmitters. There is one
transmitter for DECT phones and one for a wireless LAN that
allows PCs to communicate over a wireless connection.
The range of the cordless phones and wireless LAN is affected
by the orientation of the Commander Pulse, the number of solid
walls between the unit and the cordless phones or wireless
PCs, and / or other interfering signals in the environment.
For best results locate the unit on the ground floor with the front
of the unit facing towards the desired working area. The range
of the wireless LAN is shorter than the cordless phones so the
areas where wireless PCs are used will, in most cases,
determine the optimum location for the unit.
DECT Range
The line of sight range between the Commander Pulse DECT
transmitter and the DECT phones is 300m. This range is
achieved in a perfect environment with nothing between the
Commander Pulse and the DECT handset. This range is
reduced when used indoors by the factors mentioned above.
The symbol on your handset indicates when you are in
range.
If you move too far away from the Commander Pulse
during a call your phone will sound an alert tone and
will flash.
