RADIO SIGNAL
When choosing a location for your Sma Sensor, consider the
radio signal path. The signal will travel between units in a
straight line and will degrade both with distance and (much
more impoantly) objects that it has to pass through.
The Sma Sensor needs to connect to the Receiver (Ignite
Wireless / LITE) or Thermostat (Ignite Wired) via its internal
low power radio.
Every house is different, and this is NOT a guarantee, but as a
guide, the units should be able to communicate with each
other through two single skin brick or stud walls.
If the above is not possible, consider moving one or more of
the system components or ask us about our Ignite Signal
Booster.
Also, the radio can be adversely affected by large metal
objects such as your boiler, radiators, and mirrors. For best
peormance, ensure that your units are placed at least 1
metre away from such objects.
Fig 1 shows two possible Sensor locations, and the path that
the signal will travel to communicate between the Receiver
and Sensor. If the Sensor is located at "B", the signal will need
to go through two external walls.
If the Sensor is located at "A", it will have a significantly beer
signal as it will only have to travel through one internal wall.
