Obstacles such as walls, doors and furniture dampen the Bluetooth signal. An RS232
extension cable (max. 3 m long) can be used to optimize the radio range. This allows
the IFCBT-Dongle to be positioned flexibly at a location where there are as few direct
obstacles as possible between the IFCBT-Dongle and the UL device.

The service buttons may only be used by INFICON employees or trained
personnel.
