    Keep in mind wireless installations underground and in dispensers can only transmit about 75 feet. Transmitters outside can go up to a half mile with direct line of sight. Veeder-Root strongly recommends the use of hard wiring for connecting Veeder-Root probes and sensors to the TLS Console. Wired connections provide a robust communication link that is far superior to wireless networks.
