2. Installation and commissioning

2.1. Installing the wall-mounted holder

The holder must be firmly screwed to the wall.
Please use suitable dowels and screws as
supports. The screws should then be covered
with the provided screw covers.
The hand-held transmitter is held in position in
its tray with magnets.

2.2. Notes on radio devices

The design of radio communication devices must pay attention to suf-
ficient radio signal reception. The range of radio controls is limited by
legal regulations applicable to radio devices and by local structural con-
ditions. Avoid source of disturbance and obstacles between transmitter
and receiver that could disrupt radio communication. These include for
example:
• Walls and ceilings (especially concrete).
• Metallic surfaces close to the radio network participant (e.g.
aluminum frame of a winter garden).

• Other network participants and strong local transmitting devices
(e.g. radio headphones) transmitting on the same frequency (868.2
MHz). Therefore, keep a minimum distance of 30 cm between
radio transmitters.
