Problems with my DS10A Door/Window Sensor

Nov 20, 2005 2 Replies

Just go a couple of the DS10A Door/Window Sensors and the W800RF32 Receiver. Apparently these DS10A's don't transmit very far. It appears to be only about 20 feet. Are they any mods that I can do to increase transmit distances?



Any tips would be much appreciated.



Thanks, JT


Try moving the transmitter or receiver a little. There may be something in the vicinity that's interfering with the signal. Sometimes moving a wireless transmitter 90 degrees can double the range because you're altering the characteristics of the antenna.

Try moving the W800RF32 up higher. When I moved mine to the attic it extended the range significantly.
