Sensor Operation Verification 

Verify the indoor and outdoor humidity match closely with the console and sensor array in the same 
location (about 10’ apart). The sensors should be within 10% (the accuracy is ± 5%).    Allow about 30 
minutes for both sensors to stabilize. 
 
Verify the indoor and outdoor temperature match closely with the console and sensor array in the same 
location (about 10’ apart). The sensors should be within 4°F (the accuracy is ± 2°F).    Allow about 30 
minutes for both sensors to stabilize.

Remote Sensor Installation 

It is recommended you mount the remote sensor on a north facing wall, in a shaded area. Direct 
sunlight and radiant heat sources will result in inaccurate temperature readings. Although the sensor is 
water resistant, it is best to mount in a well protected area, such as an eve. 
 
Use 3 screws to affix the mounting bracket to the wall with a precision screwdriver.    Connect the 
remote sensor to the wall bracket by snapping into place.
