5.4 Best Practices for Wireless Communication
Wireless (RF) communication is susceptible to interference, distance,
walls and metal barriers. We recommend the following best practices for

Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the console several
feet away from computer monitors and TVs.
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). If you have other devices
operating on the same frequency band as your indoor and/or outdoor
