Adjusting the Receiver
The Receiver is factory set for optimum
performance, and as such, it should not be
necessary for you to make any adjustments to it.
However, there are some exceptions:
When protecting a wide hallway, it may
be desirable to increase the Receiver
sensitivity to assure optimum detection.
When two or more zones are located in
close proximity (less than about 40 feet
apart), it may be desirable to decrease
the Receiver sensitivity to eliminate the
effects of crosstalk (activated Tags
from one zone being detected in
another zone).
To adjust a Receiver, refer to Figure A.1 or A.2
and use the following instructions:
1. Around the access hole for
potentiometer R11 on a Receiver, a
decal marks the minimum and
maximum settings. The factory setting is
approximately halfway between the
minimum and maximum marks. The
Receiver will not work outside these
marks. When adjusting, it is best to stay
within 1/16” of a turn of the factory
setting.
2. As you adjust, remember to verify that
there is adequate coverage (but no
crosstalk) in the zone and adjacent
zones.
3. To decrease the Receiver’s sensitivity,
slowly turn potentiometer R11
clockwise toward the minimum setting
on the R11 decal.
4. To increase the Receiver’s sensitivity,
slowly turn potentiometer R11
counterclockwise toward the maximum
setting on the R11 decal.
