Notes and Precautions for Installing Wireless Communication Devices
When installing wireless communication devices take special care in selecting locations so as to ensure proper communication. Note that even after a successful installation, due to changes in environmental conditions, communication errors may occur when restarting the system.
As far as possible, try to keep wireless communication devices away from metals and set them up in high unobstructed positions.
-
-
-
Please take note that in many instances, walls, floors, stairs, fences and desks will contain metals. In order to carry out communication between indoor and outdoor Units, please locate indoor Units near a window so that radio waves can be easily transmitted. Please install these devices more than 30cm away from walls or boards containing metal. If wireless communication Units are placed in a metal container such as a freezer or refrigerator, the possible wireless communication range will be shortened. In most cases radio waves are transmitted via doors and door openings so place devices as near to doors as possible.
Place so that the antenna is away from objects or walls.
As far as possible, keep the devices away from noise-emitting sources.
-
-
-
Equipment such as some industrial instruments, electronic devices or fluorescent lamps generate noise. Please place Units more than 1 meter away from such devices. Please place Units more than 1 meter away from computers and other devices which emit noise. Keep all wires as far away from wireless communication devices as possible. Please be careful about placing near any wiring or cables such as power supply cables, telephone wires or LAN cables.
Objects which contain lots of water, such as plants or soil, absorb radio waves. We highly recommend that such materials should not be placed between or near wireless communication Units.
--When measuring temperature in a greenhouse it has been reported that as plants grew, communication errors also increased. Do not place Units directly on the ground.
Do not place devices which are using the same communication frequency channel in the same area.
--If the same channel is used for multiple devices not only will more communication errors occur, but battery life will also be shortened. If there is a possibility that devices with the same frequency channel will be in wireless communication at the same time, please make sure to make changes to the frequency channels so they are not the same. For more details about frequency channels for our wireless products, see the Specifications.
After having made an installation, check the wireless signal strength.
-
-
-
The supplied software application includes a feature to check for wireless signal strength. In the RTR-500W Settings Utility in the "Wireless Route Settings" menu it is possible to check click signal strength. Note that by moving Units 20 cm in any direction may result in communication results being significantly changed. If no change occurs after moving the Units to several nearby locations, we strongly suggest adding one or more Repeaters (RTR-500) to enhance communication.

Useful Features and Functions
Changing Settings during Operation
It is possible to make changes to settings by either connecting the Unit to the same computer used when making the initial registration with a USB cable or via a network connection.
When making changes to settings keep the following two points in mind.
- While the Unit is connected via USB cable to the PC, the processing of recorded data (downloading / sending) as well as warning monitoring cannot be carried out.
- When making changes via a network connection there are some items such as Network Settings, LAN Password Changes or Initialization, which are restricted from being changed.
Registering a Remote Unit via Network Connection
It is possible to register additional Remote Units to a Base Unit via a network connection. This can be done by sending the Remote Unit info for the unit you wish to add to the Base Unit over the network to which it is connected.
For RTR-501 / 502 / 503 / 505 (Use RTR-500 Optical Communication)
Use an RTR-500 connected to your PC to send the registration info via optical communication to your PC for transfer via network to the target Base Unit.
