WARNING
Using Rnet tags 5, 6, or 7 in a control program that has a ZS Pro or Pro-F version 3.4.02 or earlier in a Sensor
Binder microblock will disable the display on the ZS sensor. You must do one of the following to prevent this
occurrence:
•
Replace the ZS Pro or Pro-F with a newer one (v03.05.02 or later).
•
If the controller supports multiple control programs, create a separate control program for the ZS Pro without
tags 5, 6, or 7.
To determine the ZS Pro or Pro-F version, in the i-Vu®
Installer
tree, expand the controller with the ZS Sensor, and
then select the Sensor Binder microblock. The version is shown in the
Associated Sensors
table.
CAUTIONS
•
You cannot have SPT Sensors on the same Rnet with any of the above devices.
•
An Rnet can have more than one wireless Pro-F sensor, however, changing the setpoint on one Pro-F will not
be reflected on the display of another Pro or Pro-F, possibly causing confusion for the user.
Wireless device placement guidelines
The Wireless Adapter and its associated wireless sensors communicate through wireless signals. Wireless signals
are radio waves that can degrade as they pass through objects, be blocked altogether, or be reflected. Building
construction or decor may interfere with signals. Signals can typically pass through wood, cinder block, glass, or
gypsum, but metal, brick, stone, and water will severely impact the signal. For example, items that could affect the
signal are plaster containing support wire, metal file cabinets, or even a grouping of plants (living things have
water and water absorbs signals).
Use the following guidelines to determine the best location for the Wireless Adapter and sensors so that they have
optimal signal reception.
All models of wireless sensors

Distance
. The Standard and Plus sensors should be no more than 75 to 80 ft. (22.86 ot 24.38 m) from the
Wireless Adapter. The Pro-F, Motion/Lux, and Window/Door sensors should be no more than 60 feet (18.29
m) from the Wireless Adapter.
