BATTERIES: WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT BATTERIES?
•
Good fresh batteries are important for best performance in your sensors and as backup in
your clock.
•
Batteries with an expiration date of 2028, were manufactured in 2018.
•
We recommend batteries with an expiration date 6 years in advance of the current year for
best performance.
•
A minimum voltage of 1.48 v per battery is required for best performance.
•
Lithium batteries may be used in outdoor sensors. Alkaline batteries for the clock.
Your M76171 station comes with:
SH006T 433MHz RF.
WHAT ARE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS STATION?
SH006T: 2 "AAA" batteries
M76171: 5V/1A USB Power Cord (LX050100)
Optional: 2 "AAA" LR3 Batteries
SET UP: HOW DO I SENT UP MY STATION?
1. Insert 2-AAA batteries into your Outdoor Sensor.
2. Insert the 5.0 volt USB power cord into an outlet, then into the side of
1. your Weather Station. Optional: Insert 2-AAA batteries into your station.
2. Adjust time and date settings on the station.
3. Once the Outdoor Sensor is reading to your station, place it outside in a
4. shaded location.
MOUNTING: WHERE DO I MOUNT/POSITION MY SENSOR?
• Watch sensor mounting video:
•
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 and in a
well ventilated area. Trapped moisture will cause inaccurate readings.
•
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.
