WIRELESS INFORMATION
Wireless range:
This device has an open air line of sight transmission distance of 100
feet which complies with the Z-Wave standards. Performance can vary
depending on the amount of objects in between Z-Wave devices such
as walls and furniture. Every Z-Wave device set up in your house will
act as a signal repeater allowing devices to talk to each other and find
alternate routes in the case of a reception dead spot.
Radio frequency limitations:
1. Each wall or object (i.e.: refrigerator, bookshelf, large TV, etc) can
reduce the maximum range of 65 feet by up to 25 to 30%.
2. Plasterboard and wooden walls block less of the radio signal then
concrete, brick or tile walls which will have more of an effect on
signal strength.
3. Wall mounted Z-Wave devices will also suffer a loss of range as
they are housed in metal junction boxes which could reduce the
range by up to 25 to 30%.
