RF (wireless communication)

RF components have a maximum free-field range of 350 metres� This dis-

tance will be much less in a building because of obstacles� Therefor you will 

need to allow for features such as walls, concrete and metal� All slave com-

ponents (except those which are battery powered) also act as repeaters� Sig-

nals from components that are unable to make a (strong) connection with the 

master component are forwarded automatically via no more than one other 

non-battery-powered component (= hop point)� Please refer to information
