For best results:
•
Insert the batteries and before you mount the
sensor.
•
Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and
moisture.
•
Do not place the sensor more than 98 feet (30
meters) from the main (indoor) unit.
•
Position the sensor so that it faces the main
(indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as
doors, walls, and furniture.
•
Place the sensor in a location with a clear view
to the sky, away from metallic or electronic
objects.
•
Position the sensor close to the main unit during

temperatures may affect battery performance and
signal transmission.
You may need to experiment with various locations to
get the best results.
Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant amounts
of water. Because of this they will freeze in low
temperatures of approximately 10°F. Disposable Lithium
batteries have a much lower threshold for temperature
with an estimated freezing range of below -40°F. The

remain operational to -20°F with adequate power.
Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors
such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may
temporarily reduce the effective range between the
sensor and the base station. If the unit's performance
fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume proper
functioning as the temperature rises to within the normal
temperature range (i.e. no permanent damage will occur
to the unit due to low temperatures).
DATA TRANSMISSION
Data is sent from the sensor every 40 seconds. The
reception icon shown in the Temperature Area shows
the status.
