5.5 Troubleshooting
Successful wireless communication depends on a
number of factors including: battery life, electromagnetic
interference, device memory and physical obstructions.
Ensure that the RD8000 transmitter, receiver and any
other wireless device is sufciently charged for wireless
communication. Note that many PDAs will suspend
wireless connections when their battery capacity drops
below a threshold percentage. Consult your device’s
documentation for more information.
Excessive electromagnetic interference can effectively
limit the range of wireless communication and / or corrupt
data.
Your PDA device may have insufcient memory to
maintain a wireless link, particularly if the connection is
sustained over an hour or longer. Make sure you quit
applications on your PDA using the method described in
your device’s documentation.
Although iLOC can successfully function at distances up
to 800m (in direct line of sight), your PDA (or notebook)
and the RD8000 must be within 10m (30 feet) to maintain
a wireless connection.
