The remote control (RP-C-RC-BLE) is delivered with a base that allows the remote control to be installed on a wall or partition.

The remote control must be professionally installed and serviced to comply with the following rules and regulations:

  • Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules

  • Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) licence-exempt Radio Standards Specifications (RSSs)

  • 2014/53/EU Radio Equipment Directive (RED) of the European Union (EU)

  • S.I. 2017/1206 - Radio Equipment Regulations 2017 of the United Kingdom (UK)

For more information, see Remote Control Regulatory Compliance and Approvals .

The base supports the following alternative installation methods:

  • Installation on a wall using adhesive tape

  • Installation on a wall using two self-tapping screws with flat countersunk screw heads

    For example, you can use two Philips 4.2 mm (0.165 in.) diameter self-tapping screws with flat countersunk screw head of diameter 8.1 mm (0.319 in.).

The remote control can be fixed in the base. For example, you can use a Philips 2.2 mm (0.087 in.) diameter self-tapping machine screw with a 4.3 mm (0.169 in.) diameter flat countersunk screw head and a maximum length of 13 mm (0.512 in.).
