Instructions
• The distance to electrical loads causing
interference (e.g. electronic ballasts,
transformers, microwave ovens, HiFi
and TV sets) must be at least 0.5 m.
• To avoid saturation, the distance between
Radio Control Converter and transmitter
must be at least 1 m.
• The range of a radio-control system
depends on transmitter power, receiver
characteristics, air humidity, fitting
height and building conditions.

Radio operation
• The inter-connection of this radio
system with other communication
networks must comply with national
legislation.
• This radio system must not be used
for communication beyond property
boundaries.
• If utilized in conformity with its designated
use, this unit fulfills the requirements
of the R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC).
The complete declaration of conformity
can be found in the Internet under:
www.berker.de
The Radio Receiver may be operated in
all EU and EFTA countries.
Safety instructions
Attention: Electrical equipment must be
installed
and
fitted
by
qualified
electricians only.
Non-observance
of
the
safety
instructions may cause fire or other
hazards.
Radio transmission takes place on non-
exclusive
frequencies.
Therefore,
interference cannot be excluded. This
type of radio transmission is not
suitable for safety applications such as
emergency
shut-off
or
emergency
calling functions.
Electrical Connection
In normal operation, the Radio Receiver
is supplied with power only from the
instabus EIB. It is connected through
instabus terminal A (see illustration on
fold-out page).
Connection of the 9V battery is necessary
only for the learning and clearing mode (see
chapter 'Changing the modes of operation').
Radio antenna fitting instructions
For best radio reception results, the antenna
(C) must be laid as far away as possible from
the instabus EIB cable and the battery clip
(B) (see illustration). The antenna must
always be laid loosely extended, i.e. with the
wire completely unrolled.
Keep away from large metal surfaces (as,
for instance, metal door-frames).
Do not bare the antenna wire
and do not shorten or lengthen
it.
