structure, ground, or roof top.
3. Avoid wind and rain obstructions. The rule of thumb is to install the
sensor array at least four times the distance of the height of the
tallest obstruction. For example, if the building is 20’ or 6.10m tall
and the mounting pole is 6’ or 1.83m tall, install the sensor array 4 x
(20 – 6)’ = 56’ or 4 x (6.1-1.83)=17.08m away.
4. Mount the sensor array in direct sunlight for accurate temperature
readings.
5. Installing the weather station over sprinkler systems or other
unnatural vegetation may affect temperature and humidity readings.
We suggest mounting the sensor array over natural vegetation.
6. Wireless Range. Radio communication between receiver and
transmitter in an open field can reach a distance of up to 330 feet or
100 meter, providing there are no interfering obstacles such as
buildings, trees, vehicles and high voltage lines. Wireless signals
will not penetrate metal buildings.
Under most conditions, the
maximum wireless range is 100’ or 30m.
7. Radio Interference. Computers, radios, televisions and other sources
can interfere with radio communications between the sensor array
and console. Please take this into consideration when choosing
console or mounting locations. Make sure your display console is at
least five feet or 1.52 meter away from any electronic device to
avoid interference.
