3. Press the Test Connection button on the controller.
4. The strength gauge will display one of the following ratings in Table 3-2.
5. If signal strength is not good, reposition the programmer head directly over the generator for a
stronger signal or remove the source of interference.
6. Wait 30 seconds for the process to end or press the Test Connection button, again, to cancel.
Starting the process from the tablet:
1. Ensure that the tablet and programmer cable are on.
