MOUNTING: WHERE DO I MOUNT/POSITION MY SENSOR?
Your sensor reads independently to your station.
LTV-TH2:
•
Place your thermo-hygro sensor at least 6 feet off the ground.
•
For accurate temperature readings your sensor needs to be shaded from the sun in a well
vented area.
•
Mount your sensor vertically to allow moisture to drain out the bottom.
•
Preferred location is on a north facing wall under an eave or deck rail.
•
Avoid placing near a metal roof that will cause it to read high on sunny days.
•
Avoid other sources of heat such as soffit vents, and window or door frames.
•
For accurate humidity readings, avoid placement near vegetation and lakes or other bodies
of water when possible.
•
Place your sensor in a well-vented area. Trapped moisture will cause inaccurate readings.
•
Maximum transmission distance from your thermos-hygro sensor to your station, in open air
is 400 feet (121.92meters).
•
Insert the mounting screw through the front of the transmitter and into the wall. Tighten the
screw to snug (do not over tighten).
Your station is designed for flexible placement on a desk or countertop, or to position on the
wall.
•
Position within reach of an outlet that is always active. Some outlets in living rooms and in
bedrooms may only be active when the light switch is on.
•
This station must operate with the 5 volt power cord in order to receive sensor updates
and/or to update Wi-Fi data when connected. Operation on battery power will only maintain
time/date settings if you need to move your station.
•
Best reception occurs when only one wall is between your station and your sensor outside.
•
Position you station six feet from other electronics and wireless devices. If you suspect RF
(radio frequency) interference, simply move your weather station a few feet.
WHAT IS DISTANCE | RESISTANCE | INTERFERENCE?
Distance:
•
The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 400 feet (121.92 meters) between your
sensor and your station.
•
Consider the signal path from your station to your sensor as a straight line.
•
Consider the distance the station is from other electronics in the home.
