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.
As far as possible, keep the devices away from noise-emitting sources.
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 devices.
Do not place devices which are using the same communication frequency channel in the same area.
The following items should be strictly obeyed for the safe usage of the product, and for protecting yourself and other people from bodily harm and/or damage to property. Before use, please carefully read and follow the safety precautions outlined below.
Contact with oil may cause cracks to appear in the casing of the unit. When using the unit in environments where such oils are present, please insure that it is protected from contact through use of a polyethylene bag or other means.
The following may cause water or foreign objects to enter the unit
The RTR500B series and the former RTR-500 series (discontinued) are compatible and can be used in any combination, but there are restrictions between some models. For details please see the following information. T&D Website > Products > Compatibility Info for RTR500B and RTR-500 Series
