+ | Apply a tiny bit of solder to the pins of the RFM12B transceiver before you solder it to the PCB of the smarthomatic device later on. You don't need to do this with every pin, but only with the ones that will be connected. See the picture below. | ||

- | You can use a piece of paper or plastic for isolation, or glue the RFM12B module with a **little bit** of hot glue to the PCB. This will also result in a little isolation space. | + | You can use a piece of paper, plastic |
- | Please note that the paperboard isolation may not be optimal if the device is used in moist conditions. I have no long term experience using the paperboard as isolation. | + | Please note that the paperboard isolation may not be optimal if the device is used in moist conditions. |
