MOUNT
Option 1:
• Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall.
• Place the outdoor 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 outdoor 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 300 feet (91 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 300 feet (91 meters)
between the outdoor 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 outdoor
sensor.
• Avoid placing electronics in the signal path between the weather station and the
outdoor sensor.
Resistance:
• Obstacles such as walls, floors, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal
objects can reduce the range.
• When considering the distance between the outdoor sensor and the weather
station (200 feet open air), cut that distance in half for each wall, window, tree,
bush or other obstruction in the signal path.
• Closer is better.
• Windows reflect the RF (radio frequency) signal.
• Metal absorbs the signal and reduces the range.
• Stucco has a metal mesh that absorbs the signal.
