Good placement of the Gateway is very important for correct system functionality. Try to position the gateway as close to the products as possible. Do not place the Gateway in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, attic, office or garage if the Parklio products which are meant to be controlled by Gateway are positioned outside of the mentioned places.
Keep the number of obstacles of the Parklio Gateway and other Parklio devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce the Gateway range 1 to 30 metres (3 to 90 feet). Position the devices so that the connection between Parklio Gateway and other Parklio devices is handled without problem.
There are two options for mounting the gateway:
Wall mounting
