Indoor/outdoor sensor placement:
The sensor
will have the longest reach for its signal when
mounted or hung vertically. Avoid laying it down
on a flat surface.
Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI)
. Keep the
console several feet away from computer
monitors and TVs.
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).
If you
have other devices operating on the same
frequency band as your indoor and/or outdoor
sensors
and
experience
intermittent
communication between sensor and console, try
turning off these other devices for troubleshooting
purposes. You may need to relocate the
transmitters or receivers to avoid the interference
and establish reliable communication. The
frequencies used by the sensors are one of
(depending on your location): 433, 868, or 915
MHz (915 MHz for United States).
Line of Sight Rating.
This device is rated at 300
feet line of sight (under ideal circumstances; no
interference, barriers or walls), but in most
real-world scenarios, including a wall or two, you
will be able to go about 100 feet.
Metal Barriers.
Radio frequency will not pass
through metal barriers such as aluminum siding or
metal wall framing. If you have such metal
