4-20mA signals, infrared motion, and water detection. See chapter
8 for specifications on each sensor. The operating distance between
the 2800 and each sensor is about 100’ indoors or 300’ line-of-
sight (LOS), depending on the obstructions (walls) and interference
sources (other 2.4GHz devices). If the distance from your 2800 to
your sensors is too far or there are numerous obstructions, then a
wireless repeater must be added between the 2800 and the sensor.
The repeater includes a more powerful transceiver and it can be
located up to 300’ indoors (4,000’ line-of-sight) from the 2800. The
sensors must still be within 100’/300’ of the repeater or the 2800.

NOTE: The “line-of-sight” wireless distance is the
maximum distance that the wireless devices can com-
municate with each other in a best-case scenario.
A “line-of-sight” path would be when there are no
obstructions at all between the two devices. When the
wireless path must go around metal objects or through
