Site Survey Tool

Page 1 of 2

Product Description

The Site Survey Tool (Siemens P/N 563-089) is a
matched pair of handheld devices that helps
installers optimize the location of sensors and
repeaters within the Series 4292 Wireless Sensor
System.

Each Site Survey Tool includes two handheld
devices with matching ID numbers. Devices with
mismatched IDs will not communicate with each
other.

The Series 4292 Wireless Sensor System Site
Survey tool is designed to assist with determining
optimum number and location of repeaters within a
wireless sensor network. Use of the device is not
intended to be a substitute for a professional RF site
survey.

NOTE: This tool is for use with the Siemens Series

4292 Wireless Sensing System and is not
compatible with other wireless products.

Operating Instructions

1. Turn on both site survey tools and verify that

they are displaying the same measurement
value.

2. Place/mount one of the two survey tools where
you intend to place a sensor. For example, if the
sensor is going to be mounted on a wall, the
survey tool should be mounted or held on the
wall to get the most accurate reading.

3. Place/mount the second survey tool where you
intend to place either the gateway or repeater to
get the most accurate reading.

4. Allow approximately 5 seconds for accurate
measurements to be received.

NOTE: Readings are in real time and will

change as the survey tools are moved.
