10. If your VeriFresh Receivers are mounted on the ceiling remember that a VeriTemp sensor s maximum range refers to the line of sight distance between the sensor and the receiver NOT the horizontal distance between the sensor and the point on the floor above the receiver The line of sight distance could be significantly greater depending on the height of the site s ceil ing Never attach anything to any VeriFresh RF equipment unless approved by CPC Doing so can cause the equipment to become inoperative Never bend an antenna more than 5 degrees from vertical on a VeriFresh Receiver Sensor and Transmitter Mounting Guidelines Test your mounting location before securing the sensor to the case Certain locations in the case will likely provide better reception than others be sure you ve chosen a location that will work before mounting the transmitter permanently Mount the transmitters as high up in the case as possible If the sensor must be mounted on a metal surface make sure the rear end of the sensor faces the metal surface so that the front end points away If possible commission the sensor from its mounted location using the Service Button method see Section 5 3 Service Button Method If you can successfully do this then you have veri fied that the sensor is active and is mounted in a good location where communication with a receiver is not obstructed General Mounting and Placement Guidelines Appendix Sensor Place
