After another five seconds the display will change and show a negative value.
The value displayed provides an indication of the signal strength in dB. This value will always
be a negative value.
•
-59dB and above = Excellent signal (four bands of WiFi Signal icon ( ) )
•
-60dB to -79dB = Good signal (three bands of WiFi Signal icon ( ) )
•
-80dB and below = Poor signal (two bands of WiFi Signal icon ( ) )
If the WiFi signal strength is poor, then consider the following options:
1.
Move the transmitter closer to the location of the nearest WiFi router, access point or
signal repeater.
2.
Install a WiFi signal repeater at the point where there is a good or excellent signal
strength, in order to boost the signal to the transmitter.
NOTE
–
Diligence 600 transmitters cannot act as WiFi repeaters to boost the network signal
- even with a power supply unit (PSU) connected. Only a WiFi repeater connected to the WiFi
network can achieve this.

If the required WiFi network is not displayed by the transmitter as an available WiFi network,
then the following should be checked:
1.
Check that the WiFi router, access point or signal repeater is in range.
2.
Try moving the transmitter closer to the nearest WiFi router, access point or signal
repeater.
3.
Check to see if the WiFi router, access point or signal repeater has been set to use the
5GHz band. If so, change to use 2.4GHz and try again.
