Warning
Sensor batteries will drain at a faster than normal rate during antenna placement mode.
To enter antenna placement mode, navigate to the Connected Sensors tab in the Advanced Configuration window and press Antenna Placement Mode.
In antenna placement mode, brush status indicators show radio signal strength instead of sensor data. Background color changes depending on the strength of the radio signal:
-
Red: Weak or unknown signal strength
-
Pink: Moderate signal strength
-
Gray: Strong signal strength
Two numbers are shown for every location:
-
The left number is the signal strength on the Primary Controller side (quality of the radio link from sensor to the Primary Controller).
-
The right number is the signal strength on the sensor side (quality of the radio link from Primary Controller to sensor).
Please allow around one hour for all sensors to report signal strength. To exit antenna placement mode, navigate back to the Connected Sensors tab in the Advanced Configuration window, and press Antenna Placement Mode. To prevent excessive battery drainage, the cBCM system will automatically quit antenna placement mode after two hours.
