Radio range settings

How to increase range

Setting radio range

Senders ship with the range set at normal which is 800' with out obstructions impeding the signal. It can be increased for special case scenarios that need additional distance.


Option 1 - Use the display

The remote display can set radio range on connected nodes and is a simpler method. Refer to the display guide on setting radio range for more information.


Option 2 - Use the hardware button

Click the ZERO button to increase to the next higher level setting.  The status light will flash yellow to indicate the range setting you are on  (one flash = level 1, two flash = level 2, ...).  Once you reach the highest level setting the next press will be back to the start at normal.

Press and hold the MAX button for 1 sec to save your changes.

Release the button when the status light flashes green to confirm it is saved.


Range levels:

  1.  800' line of sight, transmits 3x/sec

  2. 1400' line of sight (or 1000' through 16 houses), transmits 2/x sec

  3. 2000' line of sight, transmits 1x every 2sec

  4. 3000' line of sight, transmits 1x every 3sec


Important Note: Display unit and sender MUST have the same setting to communicate
