Explanations for Fig. 1:
1 – tester ON/OFF button (designated ). Press and hold down the button for
approx. 3 seconds to switch the tester on/off. Switching the tester on is signaled
by 4 short and 1 long beeps. Switching the tester off is signaled by 3 short beeps.
2 – button (designated ) for selecting operation mode of LED indicator After
the tester is switched on, the LED indicator will show the level of signal received
by the tester from the controller. It is indicated by steady red light of the LED
(designated in Fig. 1 with number 5). Press the button to switch over the indicator
display mode to show information on the level of signal received by the controller
from the tester (the red LED will start blinking). Press the button again to toggle
between the LED indicator display modes.
3 – button (designated ) for selecting power supply mode simulated by the
tester of wireless device. The power supply mode has an impact on radio
signal level of the device. When switched on, the tester simulates operation of
the wireless device supplied from external power sources. By pressing the button
you will switch the tester over to the mode of simulating the battery-supplied
wireless device. This mode is indicated by red light of the LED designated in
Fig. 1 with number 4. If the signal level indicator LEDs are on, they will go off and
will only come on during the next response time, when they will show the
updated radio signal level. In this mode, light of the LEDs is dimmed. Press the
button again to switch the tester over to the mode of simulating the wireless
device supplied from the external power source. If you hold down the button for
more than 3 seconds, the tester will enter the dense polling mode and will stay
there as long as the button is depressed. In the dense polling mode, the
information on radio signal level will be refreshed every 2 seconds. At the
moment of updating the radio signal level data, the tester will generate 2 short
beeps.
4 – red LED indicating the type of power supply simulated by the tester of
wireless device:
- ON – wireless device supplied from battery (e.g. AMD-100, AMD-101 & APD-
100 detectors, ASP-205 siren),
- OFF – wireless devices supplied from external power sources (e.g. ACX-200
expander, ASP-105 siren, ASW-100 wireless control unit).
5 – red LED showing operation mode of the LED indicator:
- ON – the indicator shows the level of radio signal received by the tester from
the controller,
- blinking – the indicator shows the level of radio signal received by the
controller from the tester,
6 – radio signal level indicator. Consists of 7 LEDs (2 yellow and 5 green). The
LEDs are described by numbers which illustrate the percentage of signal level.
The indicator LEDs are blinking when the tester battery is low.
