ran e/sensitivity is reducin and also to record dead areas within the Remote Controller’s ran e due to
RF obstructions and/or RF interference.
NOTE: Where a Li ht Source has more than one Remote Control, reduction in operatin ran e may be
experienced when both (or multiple) Remote Controls are used simultaneously.
