2.2.6 Programming a Signal Hop
If the RSSI value of a Network Repeater shown in the Event log (Section 3.5) shows a value below 100,
you may consider setting the target address to the ZPID of another ZP-01(S) to relay the signal to the
central display. In the illustration below, Repeater ZP03 will likely have a more reliable connection with
Master ZP48 if a “hop” is programmed through ZP01.
This will direct the signal down the corridor
instead of trying to penetrate through several walls.
When planning the network if your facility, good locations for the Network Repeaters are at corridor
intersections. This allows signals to pass down unobstructed hallways instead of penetrating through
walls that can weaken or block the signal. Each repeater can cover a radius of ~25m for the purposes for
site planning, so if you have long corridors additional repeaters may be required
–
you can place them at
intervals of 40-50m in most building environments.
