Wireless Range Conditions
The wireless range is the effective distance of remote control and it will be
impacted by the following conditions:
• Each wall or obstacle (e.g., refrigerator, TV, etc.) between the remote or Z-
Wave device and the destination device will reduce the wireless range.

• Brick, tile, or concrete walls block more of the wireless signal than walls made
of wooden studs and plasterboard (drywall).
• The angle of direction between the remote or Z-Wave device and the
destination device will also impact the wireless range; normally, placing the ZWave devices face-to-face will get the best wireless range.
• Wall-mounted Z-Wave devices installed in metal junction boxes may suffer a
significant loss of range since the metal box blocks a large part of the wireless
signal.
