Try this: 

 

Bring your sensor within 10 feet of your station and make sure it is connected to the station.  

 

After 15 minutes move the sensor into the next room with a wall between the sensor and the 

station for 1 hour.   

 

If there is no loss of signal in that hour, move the sensor just outside. 

 

Continue moving the sensor back to its original location. 

 

If you lose connection, look for sources of interference.
