Mount at least 6 feet in the air for a strong RF (radio frequency) signal.
Do not mount the remote sensor on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the
effective range.
Remote sensors are water resistant, not waterproof.
Indoor:
Mount the Remote Sensor indoors to monitor high mold risk areas like in a crawl space
or a basement.
Indoor or Outdoor:
Mount remote temperature sensor vertically.
Avoid more than one wall between the remote sensor and the weather station.
The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 200 feet (60 meters).
Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can reduce
the range.
Do not mount near electrical wires, transmitting antennas or other items that will
interfere
with the signal.
RF (radio frequency) signals do not travel well through moisture or dirt.
MOUNT
Option 1:
Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall.
Place the remote sensor onto the screw (hanging hole on the backside).
Gently pull down to lock the screw in place.
Option 2:
Insert the mounting screw through the front of the remote sensor and into the wall.
Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten).
Position Weather Station
The weather station has a pull out stand to sit on a desk or table or can be wall
mounted.
Place within
range
The maximum transmitting range in open air is 200 feet (60 meters).
Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can reduce
the range.
Choose a location 6 feet or more from electronics such as cordless phones, wireless
gaming systems, televisions, microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc., which can
prevent signal reception.
Be aware of electrical wires and plumbing within a wall. This will interfere with RF (radio
frequency) signal reception.
Distance/Resistance/Interference
Distance:
The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 200 feet (60 meters) between the
remote sensor and the weather station. This range is in open air with ideal conditions.
Consider what is in the signal path between the weather station and the remote sensor.
Avoid placing electronics in the signal path between the weather station and the remote
sensor.
