6. Turn off power to the system.
7. If you have not been working with
antenna "Z", go to Step 9, otherwise,
loosen the terminal screw for position
X and remove the Z wire from
position X on the Controller's P1
connector. Return it to its normal Z
position and tighten it. Go to Step 4.d.
8. If you have not been working with
antenna "Y", go to Step 10, otherwise,
loosen the terminal screw for position
X and remove the "Y" wire from
position X on the Controller’s P1
connector. Return it to its normal Y
position and tighten it. Go to Step 4.e.
9. If this is a multi antenna system, you
need to replace JP4 (the X, Y, Z scan
select jumper). It goes in the lower
position, (2-3) for a two-antenna

Adjusting the Tx Activation Field
IMPORTANT:
Adjusting the Tx Activation Field can cause
Supervise alarms. Notify staff and security
that you will be adjusting (and possibly
weakening) the zone and they will need to pay
special attention to area traffic during this
time.
The Tx Activation Field can be reduced or
expanded to match each unique zone’s needs.
Each monitored zone may have circumstances
that require an adjustment to the range of the
Tx Activation Field. The most common reason
is that the Field is overlapping or “bleeding”
into other areas.
To adjust the range of the Tx Activation Field
emanating from the Tx wand antenna slowly
adjust potentiometer R6 (Tx Gain) on the
Controller. Turn counterclockwise to reduce
the range of the Field, turn clockwise to
expand the range of the Field.
As you adjust, use a Tag to test the range of
the Field to ensure there is adequate coverage
for the zone.
