915 MHz RECEPTION
The Weather Station should receive the temperature data within 5 minutes after set-up.
If
the temperature data is not received 5 minutes after setting up (not successfully
continuously, the outdoor display shows “- - -” ), please check the following points:
1.
The distance of the Weather Station or sensor should be at least 5 to 6.5 feet away
from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets.
2.
Avoid positioning the Weather Station onto or in the immediate proximity of metal
window frames.
3.
Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the
same signal frequency (915MHz) may prevent correct signal transmission and
reception.
4.
Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 915MHz signal frequency can
also cause interference.
Note:
When the 915MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either
the sensor or Weather Station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force
a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see
Setting up
above)
otherwise transmission problems may occur.
The transmission range is about 330 ft. (100 m) from the sensor to the Weather Station (in
open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference
levels. If no reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units
have to be reset (see
Setting up
).
MOUNTING
POSITIONING THE WEATHER STATION:
The Weather Station has been designed to be hung onto wall or free standing.
