Key features
Two identical phase modules are used. One is set
as a transmitter and the other is set as a receiver.
Both the receiver and transmitter are battery
operated. When the unit is connected to the laptop
via USB cable it switches to USB power.
The sense coils pick up a 58kHz signal from the
antenna. An application on the laptop shows the
phase delta between the systems. No oscilloscope
is required to complete phasing.

relationship to the reference system on the level
LED’s. The LEDs flash as follows:
Front Panel functions
LED Number
LED #1
System Phase is Lagging by more
than 50 µsec
LED #2
System Phase is Between plus or
minus 50 µsec
LED #3
System Phase is Leading by more
than 50 µsec
Note: 1 millisecond (msec or ms) = 1000
microseconds (µsec or µs).
RSSI Signal Strength Reading
Press and release SW2 once. This shows the
strength of the RSSI signal on the level LEDs, with
LED 1 indicating the weakest and LED 3 indicating
the strongest 2.4GHz RSSI signal strength.
To convert to milliseconds, divide microseconds by
1000.A shortcut is to shift the decimal point to the
left three places, which is the same as dividing by
1000.
0.050. (µs) = 0.05 (ms)
Battery Level Indication
Press and release SW2 twice in succession. This
displays the battery level on the three level LEDs,
with 1 indicating a low battery level, 2 indicating a
medium battery level, and 3 indicating a high
battery level.
For example, 50µs = 0.0
5ms, 100µs = 0.1ms
58kHz Field Strength Mode
When the phasing tool is set to receiver mode, and
a laptop computer is connected the 58 kHz field
strength quality can be seen by typing “2” in the
command line of the laptop console window. This
starts the “PLL summary print” function that
continuously prints to the screen the lock or unlock
state of the phase lock loop and a relative signal
strength quality rating system represented by
groups of stars.
58KHz Signal Lock Status
No button press required. The status LED flashes
red with no 58 KHz present, and flashes green at a
rate of approximately once per second as soon as
a 58 KHz signal lock is achieved.
Setting the unit as transmitter or receiver
Pressing and holding down SW1 displays the
current configuration. Pressing and holding down
SW1, while pressing and releasing SW2, one time,
toggles the unit between transmitter and receiver
mode. The setting is indicated by the 3 level LEDs.
The level LED 1 indicates the receiver function,
while the level LED 3 indicates a transmitter.
The displayed signal strength is based on the level
of the previous reading. Moving from a weaker field
to a stronger field results in an increase in the star
rating, and moving from a stronger field to a
weaker field would result in a decrease in the star
rating.
Power Save Mode
The phasing tool goes into power save mode to
preserve the battery when no 58 kHz signal is
detected for five consecutive seconds. All LEDs
turn off when it enters power save mode. The
phasing tool wakes up from power save mode
once a 58 kHz signal is detected. The mode is
disabled when the USB cable is connected
between the phasing tool and the computer.
***|***|***|***: Very Strong
***|***|***|000: Strong
***|***|000|000: Moderate
***|000|000|000: Weakest
The field strength quality can be useful to locate
the point where the field is the strongest on
concealed antennas systems or some deactivators.
System Synchronization Test Function
When the phasing tool is set to receiver mode, and
has a signal lock on the 58 kHz of a system whose
phase is being checked, it indicates the phase

Ensure the power switch is off. Press and hold
SW1 and SW2 simultaneously while sliding the
power switch to the ON position. Continue pressing
SW1 and SW2 until all 3 level LEDs are flashing.
At this point SW1 and SW2 may be released. The
unit is now ready to receive a flash download via
USB.

Setup
At the reference system location:
1. Attach one of the 2.4GHz SMA antennas to the
SMA connector on the phase tool.
2. Slide the power switch to the on position.
3. To set this unit as a transmitter, hold down
SW1 while pressing and releasing SW2. This
toggles the unit between transmitter and
receiver mode.
 LED 1 indicates receiver
 LED 3 indicates transmitter
4. Attach the coaxial cable to one of the sense
coils.
5. Hang the sense coil using the hanging bracket
on the reference system antenna.
Important: Move the bracket along the top of
the antenna until it locks. The location for the
coil varies on the different antennas.
6. Attach the other end of the coaxial cable from
the sense coil to the BNC connector on the
phasing tool.
Note: The status LED initially blinks red. When
it has locked onto the 58 kHz signal from the
pedestal the status LED blinks green.

USER GUIDE
Note: Move the coil along the antenna until the
phasing locks to the signal.
The location varies on the different antennas.
Phasing Tool Receiver Setup
1. Repeat Steps 1-4 from the Phasing Tool
Transmitter Setup section and set the unit to
receiver.
2. Hang the sense coil using the hanging bracket
on the antenna of the system to be phased. .
3. Attach the other end of the coax cable from the
sense coil to the BNC connector on the phase
tools.
Note: The status LED initially blinks RED, and
once it has achieved a lock on the 58 KHz
signal from the pedestal, the status LED starts
blinking GREEN

The phasing tool displays the phase delta and
other information on the laptop using PuTTY as the
interface.
1. Install the provided USB driver. This is
included in the ADS4 bundle available on
www.sensormatic.com.
Laptop Setup and Use
To install the USB driver, perform the following
steps.
1. Connect the included Micro-USB to USB-B
cable to the phasing tool. Then connect the
other end to a laptop. If the H3 USB Serial port
driver is already installed, the laptop assigns a
Com port to the phasing tool. To determine
which port was assigned, open the computer
management screen and observe the port list.
The list updates as the port is added. In the
example below, Com port 5 was assigned to
the tool when the cable was plugged in.
a) In windows explorer navigate to your C
drive and select System Properties
from the top menu.

To navigate to the Computer Management
screen:
a. Right click Computer on the Start
menu.
b. Select Manage. The Computer
Management window opens.
c.
b) Select Device Manager and expand
the Ports menu. You see a question
mark icon beside the
Communications Port.
Click on Device Manager. A list of

8. To display the phase delta, press enter, and
then type 1 in the command line. This shows if
the signal from the system being phased is
leading or lagging from the reference system.
The value is displayed in microseconds and
milliseconds for convenience.
Note: Refer to the appendix for a list of PuTTY
commands.
6. Note: To query the PuTTY, select ? as shown
below.
Adjusting the Phase
The Console Menu displays again. See image
below.
1. Open the standard configurator (eg. ADS4,
UltraPost) for the system which is being
phased. Use the phase adjustment slider on
the configurator to adjust the phase by the
amount indicated on the phase delta display.
Note: For Legacy equipment see Phasing
steps for Legacy M4K controller in the
Appendix.
2. Check the phase delta again by typing “d” on
the command line of the PuTTY interface. If
the delta in microseconds is close to zero
(within plus or minus 50µS), then the phasing
is complete. If not, adjust the phase again and
recheck.
7. The PuTTY screen launches. Figure 6 shows
an example of the PuTTY input screen.
3. Repeat for each system which requires
phasing.

The same PAN ID and radio channel must be set
on the phasing tools for them to communicate.
Connect to a laptop and use PuTTY to adjust the
PAN ID or channel if necessary.
The scope image in figure 8 shows the system
being phased is leading the reference system. The
