Doesn't Rosemount have some guidelines and caveats about installation and maximum transmit/receive distances? They would have to.

If you have read that section in the manual, what is your concern? Are the transmitters not operating as expected, or are you thinking of trying to stretch their capability beyond recommended limits?

Yes they do have all the guide lines published and I have read the manual. I just wanted to put the question out there to see what peoples real life experience has been with this equipment because the points I would want to pick up would be getting close to the max ranges from a central convenient place to put the gateway. I know it forms a mesh network and each transmitter works as a repeater and eventually I should have enough points that ranges should be shortened considerably but for now I would only have A few.

Then I was pretty close to the mark (having been in similar situations myself). I have no direct experience with this instrumentation, so will bow out. Hopefully there will be someone here that can help. There will be a bit more for them to go on now.

Kindest Regards!
