Placing Center and Station

IMPORTANT!
– Install your Center and Station near
the AC outlet and where the AC power
plug can be reached easily.
Take the following steps to optimize the
Wi-Fi connection between Center and
Station:
– Keep your Center and Station away from the
source of interference (wireless routers,
microwave ovens, DECT phones, bluetooth
devices, cordless phones, other Wi-Fi products,
etc.)
– Avoid placing your Center or Station close to
the plasma TV. It may result in improper display
on your Center's 2-way remote control.
– Keep Stations adequately apart or in different
angles (e.g. in different rooms blocked by one
wall). Within a distance and angle (e.g. in the
same room), your Center's remote control is
powerful enough to simultaneously operate
several Stations, which may also result in
improper display on the 2-way remote control.
With the detachable stand and by-packed wall
mounting kit, WAS700 Station allows you to
place it in two ways: on desktops with stand
or on walls without stand.
(on desktops with stand)
(on walls without stand)

onto walls to learn more about
