Note:
If no LED light up or is permanently on, make sure the batteries are
inserted the correct way or a proper reset has happened. Do not install the
batteries backwards. You can permanently damage the outdoor sensor.
Note:
We recommend 1. 5V lithium batteries. We do not recommend
rechargeable batteries. They have lower voltages, they do not operate well at
wide temperature ranges, and do not last as long, resulting in poorer reception.
4.2.6 Mount assembled outdoor sensor package
4.2.6.1 Before you mount
Before proceeding with the outdoor mounting detailed in this section, you may
want to skip to setup instructions in section 6. 2 and onwards first, while you
keep the assembled outdoor sensor package nearby (although preferably not
closer than 5 ft. from the console). This will make any troubleshooting and
adjustments easier and avoids any distance or interference related issues from
the setup.
After setup is complete and everything is working, return here for outdoor
mounting. If issues show up after outdoor mounting they are almost certainly
related to distance, obstacles etc.
4.2.6.2 Mounting
You can attach a pipe to a permanent structure and then attach the sensor
package to it (see Figure 8). The U-Bolts will accommodate a pipe diameter of
1-2 inches (pipe not included).
Figure 8: Sensor package mounting diagram
Finally, place the sensor package on top of the prepared mounting pipe. The
U-Bolts should be loose enough to allow this but loosen the nuts as necessary.
Once placed, hand tightens all four nuts, taking care to do so evenly.
