Poor Pico range
I'm seeing really poor range from Picos to the processor--much worse than I ever saw to a Ra2 main repeater. Has anyone else seen this? Any idea if a different channel might help? This is in a condo building where I have no idea what interference there might be.

Have you upgraded to Designer 22.2 and subsequently updated the firmware of the RA3 processor? The new release is supposed to increase the operational range of both X and A devices.

Thank you. Yes, I’m on 22.2. It’s now prompting me to install 22.3, so I’ll try that and see if it improves. I suspect it’s the concrete floor causing issues.

Fresh battery might help too. That whole "10 year battery" thing is not really real-world

New battery, upgraded the firmware, and it was still not working reliably. I think it had to do with the foot-thick concrete floor between the floor with the processor and the floor with the problem picos. So while it was technically within the prescribed distance, it was not working. Installed a second processor on the other floor and all works perfectly now.

Yea a 12" thick concrete barrier will block any RF thats a given...

Have you changed the RA3 processor's firmware after upgrading to Designer 22.2? The operational range of both X and A devices is claimed to be increased by the latest update.
