To Adjust the Power Level Settings

IMPORTANT : If you have a black MMS100 with a MM37x or MM57x Control board serial date code number below 220201XXXXXXX, you may need to adjust the Power Level Settings on the control board by following the steps below.
CAUTION : Do not set the power level setting to “Medium” or “High” if your Bridge Module and the Radio Module are within 25 ft of each other.

If the Bridge Module and Radio Module (Control Box) are far enough apart that a connection does not occur after 5 minutes of powering up the unit (the green LED on the Bridge Module does not turn solid), then the power level will need to be adjusted. The following steps will need to be taken:

NOTE : The power level will need to be adjusted on both the Control Board and the Bridge Module using the Nice G.O. App.
NOTE : Power settings in the app are only configurable for the black MMS100. The Grey MMS100 will auto-adjust the radio power settings.

  1. Stand next to the gate operator control box.

  2. Open the control box and adjust the power level.
    a. Hold down S3 until you hear a second beep (about 10-15 seconds). A visual indication of the current power level setting will be given via the number of lit LEDs (1 for Low, 2 for Medium and 3 for High).
    b. Adjust the power level up to Medium by pressing the S2 button.
    i. S2 increases the power level setting.
    ii. S4 decreases the power level setting.
    c. Confirm the selected power level setting by holding down S3 for 1 second.

  3. Adjust the power level for the Bridge using the Nice G.O. App.
    a. Go to the app Device Details page.
    b. Click on the Power Level button (should currently be indicating Low).
    c. Select Medium (which needs to align with the setting that was set on the control board).

  4. Stand next to your Bridge Module, then wait up to 5 minutes to ensure that the LED on the Bridge Module turns solid green.

  5. If the LED on the Bridge Module does not turn green after 5 minutes, repeat steps 1-4 in order to change the power level to High.
