Installing the deactivation unit - VdS shunt lock
Install the deactivation unit directly next to the lock. This ensures optimum radio communication.

Use with locking cylinders
Align the deactivation unit so that the two fastening screws are in a horizontal line (see drawing). The antennas then point directly at the locking cylinder.
The range is generally reduced by metal surfaces. You will achieve a higher range if you use FH cylinders. Fire resistant doors are made out of metal and rather thick. Thus, the electronic thumb-turn of FH cylinders has a plastic grip element to optimize radio transmission. This also optimizes transmission from and to the block lock.
