Overview
The TK400 Test Kit is used to determine the optimum mounting position (for radio frequency
(RF) communication) of a Wireless Access Point Module (WAPM). The AD-400 Series locks,
WPR400, WRI400 and WSM400 are examples of WAPMs.
The TK400 Test Kit consists of:
• A PIM400-TD2 used to determine a suitable location for the PIM400-TD2 or PIM400-485 and powered with 12VDC power supply.
• A WPR400-DT a battery-powered device used with the PIM400-TD2 which operates at half the transmission power of the equipment that will be installed
L Note: The WPR400 can be used as a wireless signal tester when in “test” mode.
The WPR400 is sold separately and is supplied with an attached functioning credential reader.
• 8 AA alkaline batteries
• A 12VDC power supply (part number 23843790)
• A carry case
Additional equipment required:
• Handheld Device (HHD) with Schlage Utility Software (SUS).

Getting started
Follow these steps when using a TK400 Test Kit:
1. Place the PIM400-TD2 in the same location where the PIM400-TD2 or PIM400-485 will be installed.
2. Place the WPR400-DT in the same location where the WAPM will be installed.
3. A successful link between the PIM400-TD2 and the WPR400-DT indicates a location for
the WAPM that is capable of reliable transmissions. See Troubleshooting on page 9 for more information.
4. Familiarize yourself with the information contained in this user guide.
! Save this user guide for future reference.

TK400 test kit operation
Using the PIM400-TD2
The PIM400-TD2 communicates with locks using radio frequency (RF) signals. RF signals are diminished by walls, metal objects or barriers. Consider the following when placing the
PIM400-TD2:
• Mount the PIM400-TD2 within 200 horizontal feet (61 meters) of each WAPM. When clear line-of-sight is available, communication may be possible up to 1000 feet (305 meters).
• The PIM400-TD2 must be mounted on the same floor of the building as the WAPM to which it will be linked.
• Avoid mounting the PIM400-TD2 on a metal surface. A separation of at least one inch must be maintained in all directions from any metal.
• A signal will not pass through metal walls or metal mesh in the walls (stucco). Use a
Remote Antenna Module (ANT400) located outside the room when necessary.
• Moving vehicles will interrupt the signal. Placement distance should be reduced by half when vehicles may temporarily block the signal.
Follow these steps to install and link the PIM400-TD2:
1. Mount the PIM400-TD2 to the wall (or ceiling) in the exact location that the PIM400-TD2 or PIM400-485 would be located.
L Mount the PIM400-TD2 as the PIM400-TD2 or PIM400-485 would be mounted
(mounting hardware not included).
2. Remove the cover from the PIM400-TD2.
3. Connect the bare leads from the power supply to J2 (DC Power) plug-in screw terminal on the PIM400-TD2. It is not necessary to observe polarity.
4. Connect the power supply to 120 VAC.
5. Press and release LINK 1 button (SW2) to link Access Point 1. The corresponding
LED (LED1) blinks red and green. This indicates that the PIM400-TD2 is in Link Mode.
To abort Link Mode, press the LINK 1 button again.

Using the WPR400-DT
L
Before using the WPR400-DT, be sure to install fresh batteries. See Batteries on page 8
for information on the batteries.
L Always locate the WPR400-DT in the intended mounting position before and during the linking process.
1. The WPR400-DT should be held in place at the exact spot where the WAPM (WPR400,
WRI400, WSM400 or interior of the AD-400) will be installed. Always hold the
WPR400-DT by the handle, not by the housing.
2. Test on the intended door with the door open and with the door closed.
3. Turn on the WPR400-DT. It will perform a power-on test and then automatically enter Tester mode. It will then send 200 test packets to check the quality of the RF link. A successful link will produce more green than red LED blinks during the link transmissions. See
WPR400-DT LED reference
below for details.
4. To repeat the link test, turn the WPR400-DT off, then on again to cycle power.
The WPR400-DT will enter Tester mode as described in step 3 above.
WPR400-DT LED reference
The WPR400-DT LEDs will blink to indicate RF communication quality as follows:
LED
Solid green, fast green blinks, or very few red blinks
Solid red or fast red blinks
10 fast red
Good Link
Condition
Poor or No Link
Low Battery, test incomplete
(see Batteries on page 8)
If the RF transmission is poor or unsuccessful, attempt modifications to improve the
transmission. See Improving RF communication on page 7.

Improving RF communication
If the WPR400-DT indicates a poor link or no link, try one of the following:
1. Ensure that the distance between the PIM400-TD2 and the WPR400-DT does not exceed 200 feet (61 meters). The PIM400-TD2 and the WPR400-DT should not be located on separate floors in a building.
2. If the linking problem still exists and the PIM400-TD2 is in a closet, move it outside the closet where a Schlage Remote Antenna could be located. This will eliminate the RF attenuation from the closet wall. If this allows linking, then the PIM400-TD2 or PIM400-
485 should be mounted outside the closet. If it is not desirable to mount the PIM400-
TD2 or PIM400-485 outside the closet, then mount it in the closet with a Schlage
Remote Antenna Module (ANT400) mounted outside the closet.
3. If the linking problem still exists, use a PIM400-TD2 with a Schlage directional (remote) antenna aimed at the non-linking WPR400-DT location.
4. Finally, move the PIM400-TD2 to another workable location nearer to the test site, then test again.
Reprogram the WPR400-DT using the Handheld Device (HHD)
To reprogram the WPR400-DT, an active credential reader must be connected to the
WPR400-DT with a reader cable. The HHD can then be used to program the WPR400-DT firmware.
L Make sure power is connected before programming.

Troubleshooting
If the WPR400-DT is unable to link with the PIM400-TD2, or if there are a large number of red blinks on the WPR400-DT, follow these recommendations:
• Verify that the batteries of the WPR400-DT are fresh, new AA alkaline batteries and the
power to the PIM400-TD2 is appropriate. See Using the PIM400-TD2 on page 5 for more information.
• Verify that the PIM400-TD2 is in link mode with LED1 blinking red and green.
• Ensure that the PIM400-TD2 and the WAPM are properly located. Check for and remove if necessary any metal objects in the line-of-sight between the PIM400-TD2 and WAPM. Metal reinforcements in the walls will obstruct signal transmission. The distance between the PIM400-TD2 and the WAPM should not exceed 200 feet (61 meters), unless line-of-sight up to 1000 feet (305 meters) is completely unobstructed.
• Ensure that the PIM400-TD2 and WPR400-DT are on the same floor of the building -
DO NOT locate on separate floors.
• Look for other products and devices in the area that can cause RF interference (wireless phones, wireless security alarms, wireless speaker systems, etc.). If necessary, change the RF channel of the PIM400-TD2 and try again. Refer to the Schlage Utility Software
(SUS) User Guide for information on changing the PIM400-TD2 RF channel.
