can vary depending on the amount of objects in between Z-Wave
devices such as walls and furniture. Every Z-Wave device set up in
your network will act as a signal repeater allowing devices to talk to
each other and find alternate routes in the case of a reception dead
spot.
Radio frequency limitations:
1.
Each wall or object (i.e.: refrigerator, bookshelf, large TV, etc) can
reduce the maximum range of 65 feet (20m) by up to 20 to 30%.
2.
Plasterboard and wooden walls block less of the radio signal then
concrete, brick or tile walls which will have more of an effect on
signal strength.
3.
Wall mounted Z-Wave devices will also suffer a loss of range if
they are housed in metal junction boxes which could also reduce
the range by up to 20 to 30%.
Maintenance
1.
Do not expose your unit to dust, strong sunlight, humidity, high
temperatures or mechanical shocks.
2.
Do not use old and new batteries together as old batteries tend to
leak.
3.
