• Ensure that the Power Controller has been registered properly with the Wireless System
Controller by logging into your Motorola homesight™ program and reviewing the Devices

increase device signal communication range.
FAQ
How far away can the Power Controller be placed from my Wireless System Controller?
Typically 60 feet (18 meters).
Can I place the Power Controller in a different room than my Wireless System Controller?
Yes, the Power Controller and Wireless System Controller use radio frequencies to communicate with each other. These
frequencies can go through objects like walls, ceilings, and floors.
Can I use the Power Controller outdoors?
No, the Power Controller is restricted to indoor use only.
What can I plug into the power module?
You can plug in any 110V device that draws no more than 12.2 amps. Devices that require higher loads may cause the Power
Controller to fail. Do not plug power strips into the Power Controller as multiple devices could exceed 12.2 amps.
