Using the Power Control Socket as a Signal Repeater
In some cases, pre-existing environmental factors may affect the performance of the wireless
communication between the SmartBox and sensors, such as:
- Numbers of walls between the SmartBox and the Sensor(s)
- Materials of the building structure
- Interference from unknown source
When encountering such situation, you can use the Power Control Socket
as signal repeater to improve the wireless transmission service range.
Please note that at any given time, after successful setup, the Power
Control Socket repeater function can extend the communication for one
single sensor, such as Motion Sensor, Power On/Off Switch, Siren and
Door/Window Sensor. The Power Switch will still obtain its original On/Off
function after the repeater function has been activated.
To establish the repeater function, additional setup between the Power
Control Socket (repeater) and the end Sensor will be required. For best
performance, the Power Control Socket (repeater) should have direct
sight with the end sensor, without any walls or obstructions in between.
