MOUNTING THE SENSORS AND PLACEMENT OF THE WIRELESS DISPLAY:
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that all of the sensor data can be received at the intended
mounting locations before you drill mounting holes. The wind and rain sensors
have a wireless range of
164 feet
& the thermo-hygro sensor has a wireless range
of
330 feet
. Keep in mind that the ranges equate to an open air scenario with no
obstructions. Each obstruction (roof, walls, floors, ceilings, etc.) will reduce the
range.
The thermo-hygro sensor measures outdoor temperature & humidity and collects
the data from the wind and the rain sensors and sends all outdoor weather data
to the wireless display, so the thermo-hygro sensor must be within the
330 foot
wireless range of the wireless display. This allows the wind and rain sensors to be
placed relative to the thermo-hygro sensor rather than the wireless display. See
Wireless Data Diagram above.
x
The wind and rain sensors must be mounted within the
164 foot
wireless
range of the thermo-hygro sensor and on the same side of the house.
x
The wireless display must be within the
80 foot
wireless range of the USB
transceiver to send weather data to the PC.
