The following is a table of reception loss vs. the transmission medium.
Each “wall” or obstruction decreases the transmission range by the
factor shown below.
Medium
RF Signal Strength Reduction
Glass (untreated)
5-15%
Plastics
10-15%
Wood
10-40%
Brick
10-40%
Concrete
40-80%
Metal
90-100%

Reference Figure 14.
(1) Unfold the desk stand and place 5 to 10 feet away from the outdoor
sensor.
Remove the battery door on the back of the console and insert 2 x AA good
quality Alkaline or Lithium batteries per Figure 14.
(2) Wait several minutes for the remote sensors to synchronize with the
display console.
(3) In order to prevent the display console's own temperature rise from
affecting the accurate reading of temperature and humidity, the
temperature and humidity sensor is placed at the antenna end away from
