Southern Hemisphere: Mounting The Multi-Sensor; What Is Distance/Resistance/Interference - La Crosse Technology 330-2315 Manual

Option 1
 Install one mounting screw into a wall leaving some extended.
 Place the transmitter onto the screw; gently pull the transmitter down to lock the screw
into place.
Option 2
 Insert the mounting screw through the front of the transmitter and into the wall.
 Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten).
 Mount the temperature/humidity sensor on a north-facing wall or in any well-shaded
location. Sun will make it read high.
 Under an eave or deck rail is preferred.
 Be sure the TH sensor is mounted vertically to drain moisture.
 Avoid mounting under a metal roof and use stainless screws for best transmission.
 The maximum wireless transmission range to your station is over 330 feet (100 meters)
in open air.
TX233RW Multi-sensor:
 For most accurate wind speed and rainfall readings, mount the Multi-sensor in an open
area clear for 50 feet in all directions.
 Mount with the solar panel facing south so the wind direction is correct.
See N, S, E W, embossed on the top of the sensor.
 Use the bubble level on the top of the sensor to ensure it is level, for accurate rainfall
readings.
 The maximum wireless transmission range to the station is over 330 feet (100 meters)
in open air, not including walls or trees.
 Cups should be on the top of the sensor.
 Attach to mounting surface with screws through the mounting bracket.
 With the mounting bracket, the sensor can attach from the bottom or from the side.
Note: you will occasionally need to clear debris from the rain sensor.
Use your own mounting pole:
 Insert your own mounting pole (1.25 or less diameter) into the sensor.
 Tighten screws
 Mounting bracket would not be used.

SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE: MOUNTING THE MULTI-SENSOR

• For the system to work correctly, the Multi-Sensor's solar panel must face south for
correct wind direction readings. Not to worry, the sensor should still get plenty of
sunlight even in the southern hemisphere and facing south.
• The wind directional vane is not reversible.
• Keep in mind, that the solar panel does not run the sensor on its own; it simply extends
the life of your batteries. So be sure to face it south so your direction is correct!

WHAT IS DISTANCE/RESISTANCE/INTERFERENCE?

Distance:
• The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 400 feet (121.92 meters) between
each sensor and your weather station.
• Consider the signal path from your weather station to each sensor as a straight line.
