Operation Manual
INSTALLATION GENERAL
POSITIONING OF TRANSCEIVER AND WIRELESS CONTROLLERS
The water controllers must be installed in shaded and clean locations. The water controllers and the
transceiver should be fitted out of reach of children (suggested height from floor to be at least 1500
mm).
The water controllers are water resistant, however, durability is improved when positioned outside the
shower recess. The water controllers must be installed at least 400 mm above the highest part of a
sink, basin or bath.
The transceiver comes supplied with a 1.5m communications cable.
The transceiver’s antenna is located in the top. For the best results mount the transceiver so the top
of the transceiver is higher than the top of the water heater. If the transceiver is mounted to the side
or below the water heater signal strength may be reduced.
The transceiver may be mounted inside metal recess boxes or pipe covers, however this may also
reduce signal strength.
Take the signal strength into consideration when determinig the location for the wireless water
controllers.
