11.5.6 Repeaters

Repeaters (i.e. amplifiers) can help overcome problems with reception quality. The
EnOcean repeater requires no configuring (e.g. self learning). Simply connect to
the supply voltage to commission. The Sections on "Shielding" and "Penetration"
include illustration on possible deployment.
Tip Post-installation of repeaters should be considered (electrical connection)
during planning for unfavorable situations. Too many repeaters is
counter-productive (higher costs, collision of telegrams).
EnOcean repeaters cannot be cascaded in their "1-level" basic function, previously
repeated telegrams will not be repeated again. Repeaters switchable to 2-level
function do allow for cascading via two repeaters. But it should only be used under
exceptional building-technical cases.

11.5.7 Field strength measuring equipment

Off-the-shelf field strength measures devices that easily find the best mounting
locations for transmitter and receiver. Faulty connection from previously installed
devices can also be reviewed. The RF telegrams and disruptive RF signals are
displayed in the relevant frequency range.
