Signal Strength
One of the most important factors for a reliable wireless installation is the signal strength
between a wireless device and the Enforcer 32-WE. If a device is out of range it will not be able
to send events.
The Enforcer 32-WE has an advanced signal strength technology that operates by monitoring all
inputs/bells after 5 minutes from the initial test, it will then perform test this every 16 seconds.
The signal strength results are displayed on the keypad and the device, making this test very
simple and accessible.
For a reliable installation check that a “good” or “excellent” install result is received from each
test.
NOTE: When monitoring signal strength for a device, it is recommended that the device is in the
final installation position, and also in the ‘worst case scenario’ for example with all doors and
roller shutters closed etc. The following will be displayed:
‘?’ = Waiting for device signal strength information (please note this may take up to 5 minutes
during its initial test)
3 = Excellent signal
2 = Good install position.
1 = Weak install position (reposition and retest)
0 = Missing (reposition and retest)
IMPORTANT! DO NOT INSTALL DEVICES WHEN 1 (Weak) or 0 (Missing) IS SHOWN
Each input/siren device is tested every 15 seconds, and activating an input will do an immediate
test. Each device also has status LEDs. Device Status GREEN is equivalent to 3 & 2 above.
Device Status RED is equivalent to 1 above.
GREEN = GOOD, RED = BAD. All LEDS = Starting test
To get a more descriptive reading, press again when the status is shown. The following will
be displayed:
Excellent [50 to 100] = OK to install
Good [30 to 49]= OK to install
Weak [0 to 29] = Not OK to install
Missing (no number is displayed) = Not OK to install
Wireless Battery Strength
The diagnostics function also monitors the battery of each input and bell so that any low/bad
batteries can be recognised and replaced. The following will be displayed:
Testing = Waiting for a Battery result
Good = At least 1 month of battery life remaining
Replace = Battery Needs To Be Replaced Immediately
Each input / bell device is tested every 15 seconds.
