The Honeywell Base Radio is a rugged device, which provides optimal performance
when installed with careful consideration. Installation practices greatly affect the life that
you can expect from your Honeywell Base Radio. The main considerations for installation
are covered below.
when installed with careful consideration. Installation practices greatly affect the life that
you can expect from your Honeywell Base Radio. The main considerations for installation
are covered below.
Give careful consideration to the environment where you will be installing the devices.
Avoid installations that expose the device to excess temperature, high vibration,
considerable shock, or exposure to dripping condensate or corrosive materials. Also
avoid installing the device in an unserviceable location.

3.1.1 Base Radio Positioning
Correct positioning of the Base Radio will ensure the best performance of the device.
Because the Base Radio is the central communication device of all Transmitters that are
assigned to it, the Base Radio should be located in an area that is somewhat central to all
of the Transmitters.

Figure 3-1 is a picture of a general Base Radio layout. The maximum distance is
determined by a number of factors, including the Baud Rate Setting. When planning the
positioning of the Base Radio, try to place the Base Radio in a location with an
unobstructed view to the most Transmitters possible.
