NOTE:
7.8 Determining and Maximizing Range
The available maximum range specified for the wireless Series system in this
manual is only achievable under optimum installation conditions. Mounting
height, obstructions in your “Fresnel Zone” and ambient conditions can cause a
decrease in signal strength resulting in a shorter range between your
transmitter/connector and receiver unit.
The following recommendations will help to improve the range of your wireless
system.
• Place your repeater in a space equidistant between the transmitter and the
receiver.
• When using the repeater in addition to the multiple connectors/transmitters,
position your repeater in a central space if possible in equal distance
between the connector/transmitters and your receiver.
Figure 7-5. Determining Maximum Range
Test your system before permanent mounting
Before permanently mounting your connector/transmitters in your application
try moving the devices to different locations and mounting angles to determine
what installation achieves the best signal strength.
Move your system components higher off the floor and away from exterior walls
Avoid installing your system components too close to the floor or near your
buildings exterior walls. The closer your connector/transmitter and receiver unit
are the greater the interference and loss of signal strength will be.
