Operating Guide

Install the Barrier Transmitter

The Barrier Transmitter emits a radio signal from all sides in an elliptical 

pattern. The signal may transmit through a wall or the ceiling/floor. The 

Barrier Transmitter can be placed laying flat on a surface or hung on a 

wall. If you choose to hang the Barrier Transmitter, note that the signal 

becomes very directional—the signal will be strongest directly in front of 

and behind the unit. The signal is weakest to the side of the unit. 

Do not:

•  Hang unit on a metal wall
•  Place Barrier Transmitter on metal surfaces
•  Place Barrier Transmitter near large metal objects such as refrigerators, 

washers, etc.

•  Place Barrier Transmitter near audio speakers
