The DoorKing Wireless Test Range Kit allows easy testing of a wireless
signal between a DKS telephone entry system location (Models 1833, 1835,
1837 and 1838) and DKS access control device locations such as a card
readers, keypads, etc. in their desired positions BEFORE they are installed,
making sure the DKS entry systems have a good signal to communicate
successfully in their desired positions.
The test kit units can also be used to measure the wireless signal between a
new access control device to be installed with an existing telephone entry
system that has already been installed.
Set switch to the LEFT to act like the BASE unit.
Set switch to the RIGHT to act like the REMOTE unit.
RX (Blue) - lights up when signal is received.
TX (Green) - lights up when signal is transmitted.
Note: TX LED will flash transmitting a signal when set as a BASE unit.
When power is first turned on, battery level will be displayed for a few
seconds in volts. Red BATTERY LED will light up when battery level is
getting low. Note: Keep power turned OFF when unit is not in use to
conserve battery life.
Signal strength will be displayed for 2 seconds every time a signal is
received from board being tested.
80 or less is GOOD (target 74-76 or lower)
81-85 is QUESTIONABLE
86-99 is UNRELIABLE
