WIRELESS E-FLY INSTALLATION LOCATION GUIDELINES

 

Wireless DMX signal can penetrate walls, glass, metal, and most objects. However there are 

many factors that can affect and/or interrupt the wireless DMX signal, one of which is people. 

Therefore it is highly recommended to position the wireless antenna a minimum of 9.8 ft. 

(3m)  above  audiences  and/or  above  ground  level.  Careful  planning  and  testing  of  the 

selected  installation  location  is  critical  to  ensure  optimum  and  reliable  wireless  DMX 

operation.
