Preparing the Temp/Hum Station

To facilitate packing and 
shipping the Temp/Hum 
Station, the mounting bracket 
is installed upside down at

rotate the mounting bracket 
180° before you install the 
station.

1. Place the Temp/Hum 

Station on a level surface.

2. Loosen the three mount-

ing screws that hold the 
mounting bracket and the 
radiation shield together.

3. When the screws are com-

pletely loosened, lift the 
mounting bracket away 
from the radiation shield.

4. Rotate the mounting bracket and replace it on the radiation shield.
