Quick Start: 

STEP 5 

> Site Survey (optional)

Remove Gateway rotary switch access cover.

To check the status of Node 1, change the Gateway’s 
right rotary switch setting to 1

The Gateway is now enabled to read the status of 
Node 1; the display scrolls through the Node’s I/O 
status.

Site Survey will be conducted with Node 1

Single-click Gateway push button 2

The Gateway analyzes the quality of the signal from 
the selected Node by counting the number of data 
packets it receives from the Node.
M = Percentage of missed packets
R = RED marginal signal
Y = YELLOW good signal
G = GREEN excellent signal
When possible, install all devices in positions that 
optimize the percentage of YELLOW and GREEN 
data packets received. 

Examine reception readings (M,R,Y,G) of the Gateway 
at various locations. Note that the numbers displayed 
are a percentage. M displays the percent of missed 
packets while R, Y, and G display the percent of 
received packets.

Double-click Gateway push button 2

A site survey analyzes the radio signal between a Gateway and a speci

fi

 ed Node and reports the number of data packets missed or received. 

Perform the Site Survey before permanently installing your network to ensure reliable communication. Use the Gateway to perform a site 
survey analysis.
