MOUNTING: WHERE DO I POSITION MY SENSOR & STATION?
.
• 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.
•
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.
•
Maximum transmission distance from your thermos-hygro sensor to your station, in open air
is 330 feet (100 meters).
•
Insert the mounting screw through the front of the transmitter and into the wall. Tighten the
screw to snug (do not over tighten).
Your stations are designed for placement on a desk or countertop.
•
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 color station must operate with the 5 volt power cord in order to receive sensor
updates. 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 330 feet (100 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.
