Digital Security Controls Ltd. 12TR5164 Manual Do Utilizador

Testing the proposed placement of each wireless device before it is mounted is very important. 

Following these steps tests the signal strength between the TR5164 and the wireless devices. 

All wireless devices can be tested together (global placement testing) or individually.

NOTE:  After the wireless devices are enrolled, Installer Programming must be exited and then 

re-entered at least once before performing a placement test.
To perform a global placement test:
1. Temporarily place the wireless devices in the preferred mounting locations.

2. At a system keypad, enter [

,

][8][Installer Code].

3. Enter section [804], then key in [00]. In this mode, all wireless devices are placement tested at the 

same time.

4. Activate the device(s) as described in the associated installation sheet. The device name and zone 

number are displayed on the LCD.

Read the test results at the keypad:

Good

Light 1 On Steady

“Good”

1 Beep/Squawk

Bad

Light 3 On Steady

“Bad”

3 Beeps/Squawks

Activate the device until three “good” results in a row are achieved.  

Mount the wireless devices where results are good.  

Devices indicating a bad result must be moved to another location. The device may only have to 

be moved a few inches to correct a bad result. 

5. Perform step 4 for each wireless device enrolled on the TR5164. 

Wait until the placement test of one device is shown/sounded before beginning to test the next device. 

Continue to test the devices until both the TR5164 and the devices are in good locations. If several 

wireless devices produce “bad” test results, consider moving the TR5164 to a different location (see 

7. To exit the placement test and return to Installer Programming, press [#] twice.

NOTE: To placement test a wireless keypad, press any number key. To placement test a wireless 

repeater, press the Test button or tamper the device.
Testing Individual Devices
1. Temporarily place the device in the preferred mounting location.

2. At a system keypad, enter [

,

][8][Installer Code].

3. Enter programming section [904] for wireless devices. 

4. Enter the 2-digit zone number for the device.

5. Activate the device until a result is displayed on the keypad or sounded by the keypad or bell.

6. To test another device, press [#] once, then repeat steps 4 - 5. Continue to test the devices until 

both the TR5164 and the devices are in acceptable locations. 

If several wireless devices produce “bad” test results, consider moving the TR5164 to a better 

location (see Section 2.2, page 5 for tips on finding a location for the TR5164).

7. To exit the placement test and Installer Programming, press [#] twice.
