Configuring Door Spread Settings
Configure the communication settings between the spread sensors.
Procedure
-
Go to the Door
Spread page, then click
in Door
Spread.
-
Enter a frequency for the communication between all spread sensors.
Note: The frequency must be the same for all of them.
-
Enter the maximum spread between:
- Master sensor placed on the port door: distance to the starboard door.
- Starboard sensors placed on the clumps: distance to closest clump, toward port direction.
- Starboard sensor: distance to the Master sensor or to the closest clump, toward port direction.
Note: You can set a spread distance between 50 and 800 meters. A lower maximum spread distance will save battery life. We recommend to put a value a little higher than the estimated distance to keep a safe margin.We recommend these maximum spread values to save battery life:Sensor Max. spread Master 300 to 400 m Clump 1 200 m Clump 2 200 m Starboard 200 m
Trouble: If you have communication issues, you can set a maximum spread higher than 200 meters, even if the real spread value is lower. This will increase the emission power level of 6 dB more than the default level. Be aware that this will reduce the battery life.
