Note
The antenna must be placed where the optimal signal strength from the network is available in
order to obtain long battery life and strong wireless signal coverage. Avoid placing the antenna
close to high-voltage units, high-power lines or metal plates.
The antenna is rated IP68 and will not be damaged by flooding. However, transmission cannot
be guaranteed during flooding.
