7. Installation
The module should be attached to the wall at a practical
height for the operator. Ensure that a suitable 12 V power
supply is available. The info module can be installed up
to 100 metres from your wireless alarm centre. The
reception range is strongly dependent on the structural
characteristics of the building.
7.1. Location check
The incoming signal strength should be measured at the
planned installation location for the info module. The
FU3801 wireless testing box from our product range can
be used for this purpose. If you do not possess a wireless
testing box, then the info module itself can be used to
display t
he signal strength (see “Testing the signal
strength”).
Avoid installation in the following locations:
Next to or on large metal structures. Less than one meter
away from power lines and metal, water and gas pipes.
Inside steel cases. Next to electrical devices, especially
computers, photocopiers or communication devices.
