(MDW) telephone may not operate properly.
!
CAUTION:
If there is no curr ent to the outlet or the voltage s are not correct, th e pr oblem should be corrected by
a qualified electrician.
Understandi ng Carriers
When you install more than one radi o module in a single zone, you must mount the radio modul es in a carrier, so
that their signals will be synchronized. A carrier can hold up to six radio modules.
If you want to install more than six radio modules, you will need more than one carrier.
If an y mu lt ipl e-c ar rie r in st al lat ion , t he l ef t most ca rri er act s as th e c ontrol carrier , and the r ema ini ng c arr i ers act as
expansion carriers, passing along the synchroniz ation signal from the cont rol carrier. Multiple carrier
installations require that you use Model 117A3 or Model 117A4 carriers, or both.
The Model 117A3 and Model 117A4 c arriers are sim ilar in ge neral a ppeara nce, b ut the insta llati on procedu re for
the two models differs somewhat. A label on the left side of the carrier identifies the carrier model number.
Note:
The illustra tions in thi s manual depict PART NER
®
system hardware; your hardware may differ
from these illustrati ons.
The Model 117A4 carrier differs from the 117A3 in that it does not require that Slot 6 contain a radio module in
order to pass the signal from the c ontrol carrier to the next carrier. It also does not have Power and
Control/Expa nsion DIP switches to set. The 117A4 automatically adjusts its power lev el and senses whether it is
being used as a control or an expansion carrier.

The followi ng chart explains the label that identifies the jac ks and LEDs on the 117A4 carrier.
Label Explanation
IN Designates the modular jack that accepts the
modular plug and cable from the preceding
carrier to th e left. If the jack is in use, this
carrier is an “Ex p a nsion” ca r ri e r.
OUT Des ignates the modul ar jack that accept s a
modular plug and cable to connect this
carrier to the next carrier to the ri ght. Thi s
carrie r can be ei th er a “ Cont ro l” ca r rie r (if it
is the leftmost carrier ) or an “Ex p an sion”
carrier.
OUT OF SYNC Designates the upper of two LEDs. If the
LED is not lit, ca rrier is “in sync.”
If the LED glows red, the carrier is out of
synchronization. Call Customer Support as
described on the insi de front cover of this
book.
CONTROL/EXPANSION Designates the lower of two LEDs. The
color of the LED indicates the carrier
configuration:
Control carrier = green LED
Expansion carrier = amber LED
The light pattern indicates whether the
carrier is operational:
Glowing steadily = no problem.
Blinking = no radio module(s) in the
carrier.

The label at the top of t he right side of the carrier is provided to help you int erpret the LED li ghts. The fi rst three
lines on this label refer to LEDs on the control carrier; the next three lines refer to the LEDs on each of the
expansion carriers; and the last two lines apply to all carriers.

The MDW telephones have a b uilt-in testing feature that you can use before final insta llation to help determine
proper placement of the ra dio module. To perform the test s, all you need is an electri cal outlet for the radio
module and a charged battery pack in the handset (you do not nee d a communications system switch/control
unit).

Using the signal-strength test and the voice-quality test together, you can de termine:
•
if the installation has been done correctly.
•
if the handsets and bases are working properly.
•
the range in which your MDW 9031/9031DCP Pocket Phone performs best at
your site.
Close Up Test
At no more than 5–10 feet (1.5–3.1 m) from its radio module, use the following
procedure:
1
Make sure the handset is turned off.
2
Press and h old the Select b utton (" ) for three seconds.

While s t il l holdin g " , press O.
The handset beeps twice, and the display shows the handset settings, indicating
you are in Local Mode. (While in Local Mode, the MDW telephone can still
recei ve notification of incoming cal ls.)
4
Press “W” (9) to enter Wireless Test Mode..
Note:
In a multiple TransTalk installation, put all of the handests in
Wireless T est Mode at the same time. This allows you to observe
if all handsets are working properly together.
WIRELESS TEST appears on the top line of the handset display. The handset
beeps twice and vibrates, then you hear a simulated dial tone. This dial tone
continues until you exit Wireless Test Mode. While in this mode, the MDW
telephone cannot make or receive calls.
For all set s, do the following.
5
Press 1.
The display should show a 9 or 10 for signal strength (an occasional 8 is
acceptable).
6
Press 2.
The display should show a 9 or 10 for voice quality (an occasional 8 is
acceptable).
Note:
If you are seeing numbers lower than 8-10 for either signal strength or
voice qualit y while performing the Close Up Test, please refer to either
the "Installing a Single Carrier" section, or "Installing Multiple Carriers"
section in this manual. This will ensure that your installation meets all
installation and en vironmental requirements.
Edge of Range Test
1
Periodically check the signal stre ngth and voice quality as you walk away from
the radio module. Each time you press 1 or 2, you get a new reading.
When you see a signal strength of 3 at a power level of 8, you are at the “edge of
range” for the MD W telephone. The distance will vary depend ing on the
environment, building structure, an d other factors. The range in an average office
build ing is 500–7 00 feet (152. 5–21 3.5 m). If, ho we ve r, dense walls interv ene, the
distance could be less.
2
Wit h a si gnal strength of 3, press 2 to check th e voice quali ty. When the vo ic e
quality is 7 or 8, the v oice connection s hould be satisfa ctory. This is the edge of
your usable range.

Note:
The RADIO LED also may light upon installati on; however, since the
RADIO LED has no significance during installation, ignore its operation.
The RADIO LED indicates a connection between the handset an d the
radio module; it lights when the handset is being used as long as the
battery pack in the handset is charged.
Installing Multiple Carriers
•
Install each carrier high on wall, le avi ng 6–12 i nches (15. 2–30 .5 cm) bet ween
antennas and ceiling
•
Install each carrier 1 foot (0.3 m) optimal to 4 feet (1.2 m) from its
neighboring carrier
•
Never ins tall or remove a radio module from a carrier that is plugged into a
wall outlet (hot insertion)
Multiple carrier installation involves several stages:
•
Mounting the carri ers on the wall and cabling them
•
Installing a single radio module in each ca r rier
•
Installing the remaining radio modules
The most efficient method for installing carriers and their radio modules is to perform self tests after each stag e
of the installation. This enables you to spot any problems at an early stage, and avoid the necessity for
deinstalling the components in orde r to so lve problems.

Never connect or disconnect expansion cables or tele phone line cords, or inse rt or
remove radio modules, while the carrier is plugged into the wall outlet.

Now go to "Multiple Carrier Mounting and Cab ling Self Test" (page 28).
Multiple Carrier Mounting and Cabling Self Test
1
Wait a few seconds after powering up the carriers, then verify that the red OUT
OF SYNC LEDs on all carriers are lit. This is normal when no radio modules
have yet been installed. The CONTROL/EXPANSI ON LEDs (Model 117A4
only) should also be lit and blinking:
~
Model 117A4 control carrier = Green blinking
~
Model 117A4 expansion carrier(s) = Green blinking
A Model 117A3 carrier has no CONTROL/EXP ANSI ON LED, bu t th e DIP
switch in Slot 4 of the carri er must be set cor r ectly to either Control or
Expansion.
The following il lus tration shows the correct LED status for a four-carrier
installation with no radio modules installed yet. This example installation has
three 117A4 carriers—one acting as the control carrier and the oth er two acting
as expansion carriers—and one 117A3 carrier acting as an expansion carrier.

If the LEDs on your installation do not reflect this pattern, there is probably a
mistake i n the ca bling. Po wer do wn the carrie rs and check t hat you have followed
Steps 6 through 8 in “Mounting and Cabling Multiple Carriers” correctly.

Installing a Single Radio Module in Each Carrier
1
Power down the carriers.
2
Remove the plastic cap covering each radio module’s card edge before inserting
the radio modules into the carriers.
3
Working from left to righ t, insert a radi o module into the f irst sl ot (Slot 1) of each
carrier; hook each radio module onto the mount ing rod. Slowly swing the radio
module’s card edge into the card edge connector on the back of the carrier.
(Exception: use Sl ot 6 instead of Slot 1 for a Model 117A3 con trol carrier.)
Note:
Slot 6 of a Model 117A3 control carrier must always contain a radio
module to pass the synchronization sig nal to the next carrier.
A Model 117A4 carrier does not require Slot 6 to be filled.

Model 117A4 Carrier Installation Instructions Installing Multiple Carriers
Installation Self Test with a Single Radio Module in Each Carrier
1
Wait a few second s after po wering the carriers, th en veri fy that the carriers ’ OUT
OF SYNC LEDs are not lit.
2
The following il lus tration shows the correct LED lights for a five-carrier
installation with one radio module installed in each carrier. This example
installation has four 117A4 carrier s—one acting as the control carrier and the
other three acting as expansion carriers—and one 117A3 carrier acting as an
expansion carrier.
When the correct installation procedures are followed and one radio module is
present in each c arrier, the red OUT OF SYNC LEDs will not be lit on any
carrier, no matter which model. The other LEDs will be lit as follows:
~
Model 117A4 control carrier CONTROL/EXPANSION LED = Green
~
Three Model 117A4 expansion carriers CONTROL/EXPANSION LED =
Amber
~
The radio modules’ PASS and POWER LEDs = Green
The Model 117A3 expans ion carrier has no CONTROL/EXPANSION LED,
but the DIP switc h in S lot 4 of the carrier is set to Expansion.
