Frequently Asked Questions

S50 is a relatively narrow band, so it's crucial to check local regulations and potential interference before deployment, especially in areas with dense RF usage.
While the infrared interface is generally reliable, maintaining a clear line of sight during pairing is important for a successful connection.
While AA batteries are supported, the SB900 lithium-ion battery offers extended life and charging convenience, and is the recommended power source.
