common corridor. In other facilities, you should install multiple
devices to accommodate foot-traffic patterns.

on a wall.
NOTE: Any material between the device and compatible
activity trackers, especially metal, can potentially degrade
performance.
• If a device must be installed in an enclosed location, you
should test and monitor the synchronization performance with
a compatible activity tracker.
• Each device should be installed in a location where the
wireless network connection is reliable.
