9. Note the number of green Signal Strength LEDs that are lit.

-

If no LEDs are lit, you are out of the useable range of the Master Transceiver.

-

If one LED is lit, you are in a weak signal area, receiving the minimum signal from the Master
Transceiver.

-

The more LEDs that are lit, the better the signal being received from the Master Transceiver.

10. Move the Remote Transceiver unit one to two feet around the mounting location to locate the area

that provides the greatest signal strength and to ensure this mounting location is not a fringe
location. For reliable operation, you should have two or more LEDs lit.

NOTE: Do NOT remove the attached antenna from the KWX unit and attempt to relocate the antenna
using coax cabling. The unit is designed specifically for the provided antenna in its mounted location.

11. When a satisfactory mounting location is found, mark the area.

12. Repeat Steps 6 through 11 for each mounting location for each access control network spur.

NOTE: Common electrical devices can affect the site survey process, as well as unit operation. For
instance, a 2.4 GHz wireless telephone is an example of a common device that can interfere with
KWX units.
