Wireless RF communication tips (MEGAM.O.L.E.® & SuperM.O.L.E.® Gold 2):
RF signals come and go as either the M.O.L.E. Profiler moves through the oven or the
Transceiver is moved around like FM radio static as you drive in your car. Moving a few
inches in any direction can turn a low signal strength to high signal strength. This gets
worse as the Transceiver gets further from the M.O.L.E. Profiler, to a point where no
position works.
When setting up the Wireless RF system, the transceiver should be placed as close to
the machine as practical. A standard USB extension cable can be used to move the
Transceiver closer to the machine or up and away from metal or other interference
objects.
Typically if the Transceiver is 3 meters [10 feet] away from the M.O.L.E. Profiler in a
machine any location in the room, reception should be fine. Reception is also often a bit
better when the Transceiver is perpendicular to the direction of travel through the
machine. Metal objects such as carts, walls, or other equipment in the room will impede
transmission.
The transmitting Antenna and its proximity to metal can have a big affect. Care should be
taken to make sure the Antenna is not laying on metal parts in the machine or barrier box.
Keeping the Antenna straight is best.
