Maximizing Operating Range - Hunter Residential/Light Commercial Remote Control System Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

MaXiMiZinG oPeRaTinG RanGe .................................................

There are many factors which influence operating
range. Listed below are a few things you can do to
assure that you get maximum range possible.
1. Do not install SmartPort
metal such as power meters, water pipes, and
aluminum siding.
2. Do not install SmartPort in a basement or
underground location. The higher the location
the better chance of strong reception.
3. For maximum range in all directions, the receiver
should be pointed straight up (vertically). If
receiver is mounted with its antenna oriented
horizontally, reception will be very good if
transmitter is on either side of the antenna, but
very poor if it is facing either end of the receiver
antenna.
4. When operating transmitter, hold the transmitter
as vertical as possible and face in the direction
of the receiver, especially if it is several hundred
feet away.
