Physical Installation and Network Verification
Test the Installation Plan
It is suggested that a proposed installation be tested before the installation is finalized.
Once the network has been configured and the radios have been configured:
?? install the Master radio in the proposed permanent location
?? cable the Configuration PC to the Master radio
?? place the Remote radios in their proposed locations
?? temporarily place each radio’s antenna near its proposed mounting location. The
temporary placement of the antenna can be by hand, however, then this testing
is at least a two person operation. The system’s diagnostics must be performed
from the Configuration PC.
From the Diagnostic screen of the Configuration PC determine each radio’s Signal
Quality.
To improve the signal quality of each Remote’s communication experiment with:
?? increasing the height of the antenna’s placement
?? use higher gain antennas
?? increase the radio’s transmission power, cable the radio to the Configuration PC
and reconfigure it
?? select a new location for the Remote radio and/or its antenna
?? decrease the length of antenna cable
?? determine and mitigate sources of “electrical” noise which may be interfering
with the OS2400 transmission
