Installing your weather station
Setting up the Remote Weather Sensors
Before starting up the main console unit, setup all the remote sensors first.
When placing the sensors, make sure that they are within receiving range of the console
unit. Ideally they should be within the line of sight of the console unit. Transmission range
may be affected by trees, metal structures and electronic appliances. Test reception before
permanently mounting your weather station.
Also make sure that the sensors are easily accessible for cleaning and maintenance.
The remote sensors should be cleaned on a weekly basis, since dirt and debris will affect
sensor accuracy.
