• The Controller must be located within 6
feet of an electrical outlet that is not
controlled by a wall switch, and within 6
feet of a telephone jack or jacks that
contain all the telephone lines coming
into your home.
Note: If there is no single location where
all telephone lines are present in the
home, you will need to reroute the lines
so they have a common entry point into
the building. Contact a qualified
telephone technician or your local
telephone service provider to arrange for
this service.
• Avoid placing the Controller in the
following locations:
− on top of or immediately adjacent to
a TV, VCR, stereo system, or
personal computer
− beside a window facing a street with
heavy traffic
− near heat sources such as radiators
or air ducts
− in direct sunlight
− where it is subject to water splash,
dust or mechanical vibration
− near a microwave oven
− near large metal surfaces or objects,
such as metal shelving, etc.
• Do not place the Controller in an attic,
garage, or other temperature-extreme
location.
