Improving Performance

Orientation of the Antennas

Proper orientation of the antennas is important for good performance. You may find that the system works better with one or more of the antennas in the horizontal (flat) position. The receiver and transmitter tend to operate better in high locations, where the signal path is wider and stronger (on a shelf, for example). Watch the receiver signal strength indicators for indication of signal strength.

You may also need to experiment with the position of the remote control antenna on the transmitter unit. See what position works the best for the remote control.

The Lyra Wireless transmitter and receiver antennas can rotate to multiple positions. You may want to try several different angles for the best reception.
