ANTENNAS INSTALLATION SET UP

Your antennas set-up is fundamental for a high performance radio transmission and
reception

Connect omnidirectional antennas at the transmitter when you use several receivers placed
in different direction

For short distances, you can use omnidirectional antennas with your receivers. Antenna
installation can also be easier (no need to point antennas precisely). For long distances, you
can   privilege   directional   panel   antennas   at   reception   point.   Reception   sensibility   is
primordial.

Install your antennas :

1 meter minimum between each antenna of each device,

1 meter minimum from a wall,

above obstacles. (The use of mats is recommended).
For a distance of “d” kilometre, this minimum of height above obstacles is : 3,6

d

1m15 over obstacles for a distance < 100m

2,5m over obstacles for a distance < 500m

And so on

“Stats” menu is very convenient to help you to install antennas : check at the receiver your
two power radio gains

REMINDER: a good set-up is when power reception valued are between -30dB et
-78dB.
