Installation
3.1 Transmission
distance
Compliance with the permitted transmission distance is a prerequisite for interference-free
operation of the BIC system.
A
≤ 3mm
3.2 Mutual
interference
To prevent mutual interference with adjacent Bases or Remotes, the specified minimum
distances must be adhered to:
Type
A (mm)
BIC M18

3.3 Installation in
metal
Attention!
Device damage due to induction effects!
Metallic objects on the coil cap cause the objects to be heated.
Install the components so that no metallic objects can collect on the coil
cap.
When installing in metal the specified minimum distances from the surrounding sides of the
metallic object must absolutely be maintained. Otherwise the transmission distance between
Emitter and Receiver will change and a missing Remote will induce a magnetic short circuit
The transmission distance may also be affected by the type of metal.
