NOTES
Wireless Range
This device complies with the Z-Wave® standard of open-air, line of sight
transmission distances of 100 feet. Actual performance in a home depends on the
number of walls between the controller and the destination device, the type of
construction and the number of Z-Wave enabled devices installed in the control
network.
Please Note:
Z-Wave home control networks are designed to work properly
alongside wireless security sensors, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other wireless devices. Some
900 MHz wireless devices such as baby cams, wireless video devices and older cordless
phones may cause interference and limit Z-Wave functionality.
Things to consider regarding RF range:
- Each wall or obstacle (such as refrigerator, big screen TV, etc.) between the
remote and the destination device will reduce the maximum range of 100 feet
by approximately 25-30%.
- Brick, tile or concrete walls block more of the RF signal than walls made of
wooden studs and drywall.
- Wall mounted Z-Wave devices installed in metal junction boxes will suffer a
significant loss of range (approximately 20%) since the metal box blocks a
large part of the RF signal.
-
WARNING: NOT FOR USE WITH MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT!
Z-Wave enabled devices should never be used to supply power to, or control the On/Off
status or medical and /or life support equipment.
Controlling Devices:
The features and functions that can be controlled vary by manufacturer and you will
need to review the user manual that was provided to determine capabilities of each
device.
Z-Wave devices are identified by the Z-Wave logo and can be
purchased from your local retailer.
