The distance of the Weather station or transmitter should be at

least 1.5 to 2 meters away from any interfering sources such as

computer monitors or TV sets.

Avoid positioning the Weather station onto or in the immediate

proximity of metal window frames.

Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers

operating on the same signal frequency (868MHz) may prevent

correct signal transmission and reception.

Neighbours using electrical devices operating on the 868MHz

signal frequency can also cause interference.

Note:

When the 868MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery

cover of either the transmitter or Weather station, as the batteries may

spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen

accidentally then reset all units (see Setting up above) otherwise

transmission problems may occur.

The transmission range is about 100 m from the transmitter to the

Weather station (in open space). However, this depends on the

surrounding environment and interference levels. If no reception is

possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to

be reset (see Setting up).

POSITIONING THE WEATHER STATION:

The Weather Station may be hung onto wall easily or free standing.

To wall mount

Choose a sheltered place. Avoid direct rain and sunshine.

Before wall mounting, please check that the outdoor temperature values

can be received from the desired locations.
