Range Confirmation

The Range Confirmation test quantifies the strength of the wireless signal
to a linked controller that has range confirmation capability.

Note:

Only one controller can be linked to the TAP-31 TAP-41 to

run the test properly. Disable repeaters that are in range.

1. Press and hold the

[Teach]

button until the green LED is displayed.

Release the button to enter the menu and display the first item, the
blinking green LED.

2. Press and release the

[Teach]

button to cycle through the menu of

color LEDs and stop when the blue LED is blinking.

3. Press and hold the

[Teach]

button until the LED stops blinking to

initiate the Range Confirmation test.

After the TAP-31 TAP-41 transmits and receives a Range
Confirmation message, the signal strength status is displayed as an
LED blink color.

LED Blink

Signal Strength

Green

-41 to -70 dBm (best)

Blue

-70 to -80 dBm (good)

Red

-80 to -95 dBm (poor, move closer)

No LED

No linked controllers detected

The test repeats every five seconds and runs for 50 seconds. To exit
before the time-out, press and hold the

[Teach]

button.

Rapid Response Test

The Rapid Response Test confirms the settings on powered controllers to
which the TAP-31 TAP-41 is linked. The test accelerates the sensor's
message rate, making the controller respond to light level changes faster.
The transmission rate is increased to every 16 seconds for 100 seconds
and then returns to normal operation.

1. Press and hold the

[Teach]

button until the green LED is displayed.

Release the button to enter the menu and display the first item, the
blinking green LED.

2. Press and release the

[Teach]

button to cycle through the menu of

color LEDs and stop when the red LED is blinking.

3. Press and hold the

[Teach]

button to initiate the Rapid Response Test.

4. Vary the light level on the sensor to test the dimming and recovery

response of the connected light fixture.

5. To exit before time-out, press and hold the

[Teach]

button.
