Final Checks
Connect a PC to the Hub over the Ethernet connection.
Open the device status in the maintenance menu.
Check that all the Repeaters are seen by the Hub. If a Repeater is not seen it may be:
• Out of reach of a parent
• Faulty
• Or the battery may be flat or disconnected.
Investigate cause using a survey pager. In cases where it is too far from the nearest
Repeater to get a viable link, then a Repeater may be needed to infill and complete the
mesh.
Click the details for each Repeater and check the strength and quality of the link. If the link
looks marginal, remove the parent of that Repeater from the network and see if it will sign
on to a different parent with a better link.
Register a Pager and a Fob on the system in the same paging group and see if an alarm
from the Fob is received at the Pager and that the response is sent to the Fob on the
network.
This completes the installation.
