as automobiles,bodies of water, metal light
stands, vegetation, window screens and
such can cause unwanted loss of signals
from transmitter to receivers.
Best performance is achieved when
transmitter and receiver antennas are
oriented vertically.
To alleviate loss of signal because of
these effects it might only be necessary to
move the location of the transmitter or
receiver from a few inches to several feet
in any direction.
The RadioRemote One transmitter and
receiver operate in the 900MHZ radio
spectrum.This frequency range is capable
of longer distance reception than lower
frequencies. There is still, however, the
possibility of interfe rence from nearby
strong signals such as radio/television tow-
ers, police radios, pager transmitters, etc.,
as is the case with all low power radiosys-
tems.
Tr oubleshooting
The RadioRemote One system has been
designed for years of trouble-free perfor-
mance.There are no user-serviceable com-
ponents inside and any malfunction which
cannot be attributed to incorrect battery
polarity or exhausted batteries should be
addressed by the manufacturer.
Always observe correct battery polarity.
The insertion diagram is contained in the
battery well on each unit.
Always make sure you have fresh or
known-good batteries in the transmitter
and in the receivers,if you are not using the
DC power supplies.
