wLSN | Reference Guide | 1.
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation 2.0 General Installation 2.1 • • • • • • Installation Considerations wLSN devices are intended only for indoor, dry applications. Mount wLSN devices on flat, rigid surfaces. Some devices can be optionally corner mounted as indicated in the installation instructions. Avoid mounting wLSN devices in areas with large metallic objects, electrical panels (for example: control panel or fuse box) or electric motors.
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation 2.3 Installation Procedure When installing a wLSN Network, you must plan your installation based on the control panel and wLSN specifications, and the radio-frequency signal strength (RFSS) between remote devices and the wLSN Hub. The wLSN installation procedure consists of two parts: 1. Site testing for radio-frequency signal strength (RFSS) between remote devices and the wLSN Hub. 2. Mounting all wLSN devices.
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation 2.4 Site Testing (RFSS Mode) Before permanently installing any wLSN device, verify that the radio-frequency signal strength (RFSS) between the planned device location and the planned wLSN Hub location is acceptable. CAUTION: If you have wireless devices that you will not immediately install, reinsert the battery tabs or remove the batteries to prevent battery depletion.
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation You must test the devices at the same EN50131 Security Grade at which the control panel discovers the devices. 4. Find a suitable location for the hub base and apply power by either connecting it to the control panel (refer to the control panel’s installation instructions), or temporarily connecting a 9 VDC to 12 VDC battery. 5. Insert the wLSN Hub back into the base. Rotate the enclosure locking mechanism to the locked position. 6.

wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation Reset the wLSN Hub’s DIP switches to their original settings to exit RFSS mode. Refer to Section 2.4.1 Preparing the wLSN Hub for Site Testing and RFSS Mode on page 11. To cause a device to exit RFSS mode, remove the device's batteries and re-insert them. Devices automatically exit RFSS mode after 10 min of inactivity. 2.4.
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation 4. Hold the Installation Tool at the device’s planned mounting location. Use Mode 1 to determine if the signal strength is acceptable or not. Modes 2 and 3 help you determine how acceptable the signal strength is. Use Modes 2 and 3 to place the wLSN Hub and device in the best signal strength locations. Refer to Mode 1, Mode 2 (page 16), and Mode 3 (page 17) for more information on acceptable signal strength levels.
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation Mode 2 Select Mode 2 by pressing [2]. The Mode 2 display shows power bars on the left and PACKETS = X on the right. The bars indicate the signal strength. More solid bars indicate a stronger signal. The Installation Tool shows the number of packets received: 1, 2, or 3. The best location for placing the device is the one that shows the highest number of solid bars with the highest number of packets.
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation Mode 3 Select Mode 3 by pressing [3]. M O D E S N R y 3 y : S x x x d B m N x x x d B m The Mode 3 display shows the signal to noise ratio (SNR) at the location you are testing. Signal refers to the signal strength of the incoming message from the wLSN Hub to the Installation Tool. Noise refers to the ambient noise level that exists at the location. The signal must be greater than the noise (S>N).
wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 General Installation 2.5 Defaulting a wLSN Device (Undiscovered State) Discovery is the process through which the wLSN Hub identifies and includes new devices into a system.
