・An indoor environment.
・A place where it is not exposed to direct sunlight (UV rays).
・A place free of continuous vibration.
・A place with little dust and free of exposure to water or oil.
・An environment that facilitates the dissipation of heat.
・A place that allows easy inspection and cleaning.
・A location with an ambient temperature ranging from -5 to 55°C (23 to 131°F) (no
freezing) and an ambient humidity ranging from 20 to 85% RH (no condensation).
・Avoid environments where it may be exposed to water, corrosive atmosphere, ammable
gas, harmful gas, or near ammable materials.
・Be sure to fully consider the installation environment as the transceivers themselves may
be a󱐯ected by external noise.
・If operating units in a wireless manner, avoid installing the control panel inside metal
housing as the wireless performance will be degraded.
