3.1.2 Wall Mounting
Before mounting an HMT140 device, consider the environment. It is recommended that
wireless devices be mounted in an area with a minimum of wireless interference.
• If you plan to install a device without an LCD in a dark or low-light area, a high-traffic area,
or an area with a solid object situated within 10 cm (3.9 in) of the front of the device, you
may want to turn off the proximity sensor to avoid triggering unnecessary transmissions
(see Modify Transmission Settings (page
• To ensure consistent communications and data transfer to Vaisala viewLinc, limit
interference from solid structures or wireless/microwave radiation. For additional
guidance, please contact Vaisala.
If mounting against a metal surface, be sure to keep a minimum of 2 mm (0.08 in)
between the metal and the back of the HMT140 to ensure an uninterrupted radio
signal.
1. Open the HMT140 cover.
2. Make sure that the HMT140 is correctly aligned and attach it directly to the wall with up to
four screws (not included in the package).
Select the size and type of the fastening screws according to the wall material (for
example, wood or stone). The diameter of the fastening screws is typically between 3.5
and 4 mm (0.14 and 0.16 in). Refer to the Drilling Template in the HMT140 Quick Guide.
