Plan Your Sensor Installation (cont.)

 

Interference and IR Coverage

  

The FrontRow Symbio system uses infrared light to transmit the voice signal from the microphone 
to the sensor in the ceiling/wall sensors. Proper placement of the sensors is critical for optimal 
system performance.

a.   Adjacent classrooms that use FrontRow infrared systems can interfere with each other if the 

rooms are separated by windows. The windows allow the infrared light to “escape” from the 
classroom only to be picked up by the sensors in the adjacent classroom, causing interference 
and “cross talk”. Be sure to recommend window coverings to the greatest extent practical 
when using the system.

b.   Direct sunlight can reduce system performance. Be sure to recommend window coverings to 

the greatest extent practical when using the system.

c.   Infrared light has better reflection off of white and glossy surfaces. The ceiling sensor can be 

placed to help provide coverage in areas where the signal may be weak due to insufficient 
infrared reflection.
