2. On the Frequencer screen in the Server IP field, type the IP address of the computer

where the Badge Server is installed. The badge hits will start appearing in the window.

3. To isolate and only test RF sensors, type the badge number of an RF badge in the Badge

field.

4. Take the RF badge and “hide” the badge in a pocket or other place, so it is not seen by

the IR sensors.

5. One person will need to sit at the computer while another person walks to all areas within

the facility with the hidden badge. Both will need walkie-talkies to communicate.

6. Have the person with the badge walk around the facility and press the badge button at

different locations. You will see the hits in the Total Time, Total Hits, and Avg. Time

fields.

7. Verify that the badge is seen in all locations by the RF sensors, especially areas such as

bathrooms, where there may be no IR coverage.

8. Mark the area as covered on the Punch-down Block Organization List.

4.8 Relay Board Installation

The digital I/O board is installed into a PCI slot on the computer that will be running relays. The

external relay board should be mounted in a metal utility box in a secure location such as a

communication or server room. The external relay boards need to be installed within 10 feet of the

computer where the digital I/O board is installed. This is because the 50-pin ribbon cable

connecting them is 10 feet in length.

A 50 pin ribbon cable connects the external relay board to the PCI slot of the comptuter where the

PCI-DIO96H Digital I/O Board is installed. One Digital I/O Board can accommodate up to 2

external CIO-ERB48 relay boards. One computer can have up to five PCI-DIO96H relay cards,

assuming there are five PCI slots available in the computer.
