Best Practices For Wireless Communication - Raddy L7 User Manual

3. Avoid wind and rain obstructions. The rule of thumb is
to install the sensor array at least four times the distance of the
height of the tallest obstruction. For example, if the building is
20ft (6m) tall, install 4 x (20 – 6)' = 56ft (17m) away. Use
common sense. If the weather station is installed next to a tall
building, the wind and rain will not be accurate.
4. Wireless Range. The radio communication between
display console and transmitter in an open field can reach a
distance of up to 4920ft (1500m), assume there are no
interfering obstacles such as buildings, trees, vehicles, high
voltage lines. Wireless radio signals will not penetrate metal
buildings. Most wireless applications will only reach up to 656ft
(200m) due to building obstructions, walls and interference.
5. Radio interference such as PCs, radios or TV sets can,
in the worst case, entirely cut off radio communication. Please
take this into consideration when choosing display console or
mounting locations.

4.3 Best Practices for Wireless Communication

Wireless communication is susceptible to other interference,
such as distance, walls and metal barriers. We recommend the
following best and useful practices for trouble-free wireless
communication.
1. Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the console
several feet away from computer monitors and TVs.
2. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). If you have other
433 MHz devices and communication is intermittent, try turning
off these other devices for troubleshooting purposes. You may
need to relocate the wireless transmitters or receivers to avoid
intermittent communication.
