If the wiring is incorrect, both the ‘FS20 EAM’ radio receiver and the ‘FS20 ESH’ power supply, as well as any other connected components, will be destroyed! • Close the radio receiver’s housing. Put the cover of the housing back onto the lower part and screw them together.
7. Information on the range Ranges and interference • The FS20 wireless control system works in the 868MHz range, which is also used by other radio services. Therefore devices that operate on the same or neighbouring frequency may restrict both its operation and its range. •...
8. Handling The product should only be used in dry indoor areas. Make sure that the insulation of the entire product is neither damaged nor destroyed. If damage is apparent, do NOT connect the product with the ‘FS20 ESH’ power supply! Life-threatening danger! Avoid the following adverse ambient conditions at the installation location or during transport: - Moisture or excessive air humidity - Direct sunlight...
