Figure16: Radio Wi-Fi Adapter Location
Make sure that the Wi-Fi Adapter is positioned in a way such that no screens block the connection to any corner inside the fire safety
section (potential sensor positions).
For reliable range planning, the unfavorable conditions should be detected at the beginning but often come from later changes to the
environment (room filled with people, alteration of partition walls, furniture, room plants, etc.).
Even after careful planning, range and signal tests should be done during installation to verify proper reception at the Wi-Fi Adapter
positions. Unfavorable conditions can be improved by changing the antenna position or by adding a router closer to the controller(s).
