Certifying the Installation
Introduction
Conduct a preliminary Site Survey Mode test according to the directions given in this section. Note any
areas where coverage is conflicting or inadequate. Note any system difficulties and work with your
wireless LAN and/or LAN system administrator to determine the cause and possible remedy. For
information on possible sources of difficulties, see Troubleshooting.
Site Certification
Note
The installer should not leave the site before performing installation verification.
These tests must be performed in typical operating conditions, especially if heavy loads occur. Testing
sequence and procedure is different for every installation. Generally, you should organize the test
according to area and volume, placing numerous calls to others who can listen while you perform
coverage tests. Note any areas with excessive static or clarity problems and report it to an Avaya
engineer.
The coverage test will also require you to put the wireless phone in Site Survey mode and walk the
entire coverage area to verify all access points.
Important Note
The installation is not complete until these certification steps have been performed. Do NOT hand
out wireless phones at a site that has not been certified.
Solving Coverage Issues
Coverage issues are best resolved by adding and/or relocating access points.
Overlap issues may be resolved by re-assigning channels to the access points or by relocating the
access points.
