Mounting/Positioning Outdoor sensor
First: Place the outdoor sensor in the desired shaded location and the weather station in
the home. Wait approximately 1 hour before permanently mounting the outdoor sensor to
ensure that there is proper reception.
POSITION
Outdoor:

Protect the outdoor sensor from standing rain or snow and from the overhead sun,
which can cause it to read incorrectly.

Mounting under an eave or deck rail works well.

If you choose, you can construct a small roof or box for the outdoor sensor. Be sure a
box has vents.

Mount the outdoor sensor on the North side where to prevent sun from causing incorrect
readings.

Mount at least 6 feet in the air for a strong RF (radio frequency) signal.

Do not mount the outdoor sensor on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the
effective range .

Outdoor sensors are water resistant, not waterproof.

Mount outdoor temperature sensor vertically.

Avoid more than one wall between the outdoor sensor and the weather station.

The HIimum transmitting range in open air is over 300 feet (91 meters).

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can reduce
the range.
