Important: Each Collector should have no more than 4 RF sensors connected to it.
3.3.4 Mapping the Sensor Locations on the Floor Plan
The sensor locations should be mapped out on a floor plan diagram of the facility. These are the
locations where the sensor cable will be run. We suggest using a numbering scheme such as C1-1, C1-
2, C1-3, C2-1, C2-2, C2-3 etc., where “C1” represents Collector 1 and “C2” represents Collector 2. Up
to 24 sensors can be connected to one collector, although we recommend 20-22 to allow for future
expansion. The wires should be labeled at both ends with these numbers, as well.
The facility should provide you with the names of the rooms. The room names will be used for
configuring software. Once the sensors have been mapped with identification numbers, and the facility
has provided a list of names of the rooms, complete the Punch-down Block Organization Chart with
the number and the room name. You can also add the receiver numbers, which will be used for
configuring the software. Number the receivers with incrementing numbers (1, 2, 3…). If there is more
than one sensor in a particular area, they will have the same receiver number. See the following
example chart.
