RVS-RCS Installation Guide
The occupancy sensor should be installed in the space where the receiver is mounted and
connected to the occupancy control equipment. The signal will travel through some material
barriers.
Refer to the tables for range considerations with building materials that reduce the radio signal
power.

Wireless System Layout Hints
Avoid locating transmitters and receivers on the same wall.
Avoid locating transmitters and receivers where the telegrams must penetrate walls at acute
angles. This increases the material the telegram must pass through reducing the signal power.
Avoid large metal obstructions as they create radio shadows. Place receivers in alternate locations to
avoid the shadow or use repeaters to go around the obstacle.
Do not locate receivers close to other high frequency transmitters. Leave at least 3’ between the
receiver and any other source of interference including, ballasts, LED drivers, computers, video
equipment, WI-FI/LAN routers, GSM modems and monitors. Transmitters are not affected by
these sources of interference.
