Installation
We recommend placing the Home automation hub
in an open centrally located area within the home,
and using the included wall mount to attach the
Home automation hub to a standard single gang box.
The Home automation hub should not be mounted
in a structured enclosure, panel, or closet. If the
Home automation hub is placed in a closed off area, the
wireless signal strength may be compromised.
Note:
To prevent radio frequency (RF) interference, we
recommend that you place the Home automation hub
away from devices that may cause interference and away
from grounded metals.
