MOUNTING THE RECEIVER
Receiver mounted
on piece of wood
Receiver Installation
Check the range of the receiver before permanently mounting
it. You may have to try different locations before permanently
mounting the receiver. The receiver range can vary from 50 to
100 feet depending upon weather, topography, and external
interference.
Mount the receiver:
• Ensuring a line-of-sight between transmitter and antenna.
• At least 3 feet away from AC voltage.
• As high as possible for optimum range.
• DO NOT mount receiver upside down.
• DO NOT mount receiver on metal fence or post (this will
decrease signal range). If attaching receiver to metal
fence, you should mount receiver on a piece of wood
attached to the fence (see illustration).
• Make sure antenna is higher than other metal objects.
The receiver cable:
• Cable length is 20 ft. (receivers with longer cables are
available as special order items; call the GTO Sales
Department).
• NEVER splice receiver cable!
• Run the receiver cable through PVC conduit to protect it
from damage.
• DO NOT run cable in conduit containing AC wiring.
