Echoflex Installation Guide
Photo & CCT Sensors
Installation
The sensor should be installed in a location where it has direct exposure
to a window or skylight. For example, mount the sensor on the ceiling,
aligned with a window about 1.2 m (4 ft) away.
The sensor can be attached to most surfaces; suspended ceiling tile,
finished wallboard, or other surfaces using a flexible adhesive.
Note:
A concrete or metal mounting surface can limit radio
communication. Create some separation by mounting the sensor
first on non-metalic material, e.g., 1/2-inch plywood.
The location and position of the sensor directly affects the quality of
messages received by the linked controller. Determine the installation
method and follow the instructions.
Note:
Consider linking the TAP-31 TAP-41 while you have access
and before replacing the cover. See

inserting a small flatblade screwdriver under one of the release tabs.
2. Mark the sensor mounting location on the ceiling tile.
3. Remove the ceiling tile from the T-bar frame.
