Walk through all of the areas where beltpack users will typically be
moving, and note any areas of weak signal, dropout, or disconnection
from the system. Pay special attention to the overlap areas between
antenna coverage zones, making sure sufficient signal strength is there
from each of the transceiver/antennas to make a clean handoff between
them for the beltpack.

Finally, when the coverage zones have been properly and effectively set
up, it is time to program the system. See Chapter 5, “Programming a
System from the Base station” for instructions.

Doing a site survey to determine coverage areas
You might want to test coverage areas more extensively before setting up a
complete system. Testing a system in the setting in which it will be located helps
to meet operational needs. Factors in the local setting may affect the areas a
system can cover, so it is important to plan a site setup accordingly.

2)
Place one connected antenna in the center of the coverage area.
