Are there recommended setup guidelines for Gateway Hub location or antenna positioning?
Yes. Detailed location and antenna-placement guidelines are provided in the installation manual and through training. Some basic guidelines are:
➢ Place the gateway in the centre of the site/building
➢ Ideally the gateway should be one floor higher than the majority of the sensors
➢ Technical- plantrooms or MER/SER-rooms are obvious choices
➢ Try not to place in basement of behind thick concrete walls
➢ Mark a gateway with reference or telephone numbers so engineers don’t remove it
