Handset

 

 

 

Close Up Test

At no more than 5 to 10 feet (1.5 to 3.1 m) from its radio module, use the following procedure:

1Make sure the handset is turned off.

2Press and hold the Select button ( ") for three seconds.

3While still holding ", press O.

The handset beeps twice, and the display shows the handset settings, indicating you are in Local Mode. (While in Local Mode, the MDW 9031/9031DCP can still receive notification of incoming calls.)

4To enter Wireless Test Mode, press “W” ( 9).

Note: In a multiple TransTalk installation, put all of the handsets in Wireless Test Mode at the same time. This allows you to observe if all handsets are working properly together.

WIRELESS TEST appears on the top line of the handset display. The handset beeps twice and vibrates, then you hear a simulated dial tone. This dial tone continues until you exit Wireless Test Mode. While in this mode, the MDW 9031/9031DCP cannot make or receive calls. For more information, see “Using Wireless Test Mode” in Chapter 3.

For all sets, do the following:

5Press 1.

The display should show a 9 or 10 for signal strength (an occasional 8 is acceptable). If it does not, see Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting,” for help with range problems.

6Press 2.

The display should show a 9 or 10 for voice quality (an occasional 8 is adaptable). If it does not, see Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting,” for help with range problems and/or voice quality problems.

Note: If you are seeing numbers lower than 8–10 for either signal strength or voice quality while performing the Close Up Test, please refer to either the “Installing a Single Carrier” section or “Installing Multiple Carriers” section in Chapter 2, or Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting.” This will ensure that your installation meets all installation and environmental requirements.

Edge of Range Test

1Periodically check the signal strength and voice quality as you walk away from the radio module. Each time you press 1or 2, you get a new reading.

When you see a signal strength of 3 at a power level of 8, you are at the “edge of range” for the MDW 9031/9031DCP Pocket Phone. The distance will vary depending on the environment, building structure, and other factors. The range in an average office building is 500 to 700 feet (152.5 to 213.5 m). If, however, dense walls intervene, the distance could be less.
