3. Positioning and Range
The DiMAX RC system is based on state-of-the-art bidirectional FM
technology. This guarantees the best radio control range. A radio
range of approximately 150 feet can be reached and even more. The
RC Receiver can be used with up to 4 RC transmitters. The radio
range depends on local conditions. Transmitters on the same fre-
quency like garage door openers, radio thermometers, radio head-
phones, radio mouse or radio keyboards and obstacles between
transmitter and receiver like walls may limit the radio range.
Position the receiver so that the range is not exceeded by any portion
of your layout. The receiver should have at least a 3 feet distance
from transformers, the digital central station and the tracks. Do not
lay the cable parallel to the tracks. If necessary try several positions
to determine the best location for the receiver. Keep the antenna in
vertical position. An additional metal surface (approx. 20 x 20m) un-
der the receiver can enhance the radio range.
