RSM-901 Mounting
The RSM-901 Sensor/Display mounts in a single-width wall box
or in a double width box with the RKP-901 keypad.
PLACEMENT SUGGESTIONS: Exact placement will vary with
each installation but we strongly recommend AGAINST place-
ment where the RSM-901 will be exposed to direct sunlight, pow-
erful fluorescent illumination or the output of a high intensity
spotlight, etc. These light sources contain high levels of infrared
energy themselves and may cause intermittent operation by
saturating the RSM-901.
Note: Avoid infrared “loops” by making sure that an RSM-901
sensor/display is not placed where it might pick up signals from
a source component’s IR repeater or the RMZ-955’s IR front
panel flood emitter.
Lastly, make sure that each RSM-901 is on a relatively uninter-
rupted “line-of-sight” path to all likely locations from which the
hand held RR-952 remote might be used. You’ll find the RSM-901/
RR-952 combination much less susceptible to signal interference
than other IR remote control links, but planning will ensure de-
pendable operation under an even wider variety of conditions.
