Note:

Use the bubble level beside the rain sensor as a guide to verify that the
sensor is leveled. Use shims as necessary to achieve level installation.

4.4 Indoor Sensor Set Up

Note:

To avoid permanent damage, please take note of the battery polarity before
inserting the batteries. Looking at Figure 19 from left to right the left-most
(or bottom) battery is to be installed with its + terminal pointing down, and
the other battery with its + terminal pointing up.

Remove the battery door on the back of the sensor by sliding it in the
direction of the arrow. Insert two AA batteries as described and put
compartment door back and slide it in the opposite direction to lock.

Figure 19: Indoor sensor battery installation

4.4.1 Sensor Placement

The best mounting location for the indoor sensor is in a location that never
receives direct sunlight, not even through windows. Also, do not install in a
location where a nearby radiant heat source (radiator, heaters, etc.) will
affect it. Direct sunlight and radiant heat sources will result in inaccurate
temperature readings.
The sensor is meant to provide indoor conditions for display on the console,
but if you would rather have a second source for outdoor conditions instead,
you can mount this unit outside. The unit is weatherproof, but besides
