Installing Wireless Devices
Careful planning is needed when locating the receivers and transmitters based
on the construction materials in the space and possibility of tenant’s furniture
disrupting the transmissions.
The sensor should be installed in the space where the receiver is mounted. The
signal will travel through some material barriers.
Refer to the tables below for range considerations with building materials that
reduce the radio signal power.
Material Attenuation
Wood 0 - 10%
Plaster 0 - 10%
Glass 0 - 10%
Brick 5 - 35%
MDF 5 - 35%
Ferro concrete 10 - 90%
Metal 90 - 100%
Aluminum 90 - 100%
Wireless System Layout Hints
• Avoid locating transmitters and receivers on the same wall.
• Avoid locating transmitters and receivers where the telegrams must
penetrate walls at acute angles. This increases the material the telegram
must pass through reducing the signal power.
• Avoid large metal obstructions as they create radio shadows. Place
receivers in alternate locations to avoid the shadow or use repeaters to go
around the obstacle.
• Do not locate receivers close to other high frequency transmitters.
