SECTION 3 • PLACEMENT
Now that setup is complete, you must choose a location to place the 3
wireless sensors and the main unit. The wireless sensors MUST be
placed LESS THAN 100 feet away from the main unit.
This wireless weather station uses radio frequency for communication,
which is susceptible to interference from other electronic devices and
large metallic items or thick walls. Always place both units at least 3 feet
away from appliances ( TV, microwave, radios, etc. ) or objects ( large
metal surfaces, thick stone walls, etc. ) that may interfere with the
wireless communication.
