WHAT IS DISTANCE | RESISTANCE | INTERFERENCE?
Distance:
• The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 330 feet (100 meters) between your sensor and
your station.
• Consider the signal path from your station to your sensor as a straight line.
• Consider the distance the station is from other electronics in the home.
Resistance:
• Each obstacle: walls, windows, vegetation, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects will reduce the
effective signal range by about one-half.
• Mounting your sensors on a metal fence can significantly reduce the effective signal range.
Interference:
• Consider electronics in the signal path between your sensor and your station.
• Simple relocation of your sensor or the station may correct an interference issue.
• Windows can reflect the radio signal.
• Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal.
• Stucco held to the wall by a metal mesh will cause interference.
• Transmitting antennas from: ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports, military bases, etc.
may cause interference.
• Electrical wires, utilities, cables, etc. may create interference if too close.
