2.4. Sensitivity influenced by enabled protocols
The sensitivity of the receiver part is highly influenced by the number of protocols enabled.
Lesser protocols enabled will make the receiver more sensitive for the enabled protocols.
There are a few protocols that will reduce or even eliminate receiving of other protocols if
enabled.
For example:
If the AD (LightwaveRF, Siemens) protocol is enabled it can stop receiving of Meiantech /
Atlantic, Oregon 3.0,Visonic and Mertik.
All other protocols are disabled if BlindsT0 is enabled.
ARC is disabled if Lighting4 is enabled.
