"R-Tronic" + "R-Con"

4.5.8 Use of antenna, extension and wireless repeater

A trouble-free radio communication between the wireless thermostat "R-Tronic"
and the wireless receiver "R-Con" is of major importance. With the distance to
the transmission units "R-Tronic" rising, the field strength of the radio signals
which are electromagnetic waves, de-creases. Moreover, unfavourable mate-
rials in the direction of propagation of the radio signals can be a source of error
(see also paragraph 4.1).
Screw the socket of the supplied antenna (1) to the coaxial plug (2) of the
wireless receiver (remove red protection cap first). This way, reception of the
"R-Con" is increased considerably.
If reception is poor because of unfavourable spatial conditions or a radio com-
munication cannot be created at all (see paragraph 4.6.2), the following tech-
nical measures can be taken:
• Use of an antenna extension (for SMA screw terminal):
Improves reception of the wireless receiver and is used instead of the
supplied antenna.
Use of a wireless repeater: Amplifies the signals of the wireless
•
thermostats "R-Tronic". A wireless repeater for flush-mounted
installation is available as Oventrop accessory (item no. 1153060).
The corresponding installation and operating instructions must be
observed.
