Where To I Place My Station; What Is Distance | Resistance | Interference - La Crosse Technology V22-WRTHV2 Manual

• The maximum wireless transmission range to the rain station is over 400 feet (121 meters) in
open air, not including walls or floors.
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 each 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 each
sensor and your station.
• Consider the signal path from your station to each sensor as a straight line.
• Consider the distance the station is from other electronics in the home.
Resistance:
• Each obstacle: walls, windows, vegetation, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects will
reduce the effective signal range by about one-half.
• Mounting your sensors on a metal fence can significantly reduce the effective signal range.
