Mounting under an eave or deck rail works well. 

 

If you choose, you can construct a small roof or box for the remote sensor. Be sure a 

box has vents. 

 

Mount the remote 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 remote sensor on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the 

effective

 range

. 

 

Remote sensors are water resistant, not waterproof.  

 

Indoor:  

 

Mount the Remote Sensor indoors to monitor high mold risk areas like in a crawl space 

or a basement. 

 

Indoor or Outdoor: 

 

Mount remote temperature sensor vertically.  

 

Avoid more than one wall between the remote sensor and the weather station. 

 

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 200 feet (60 meters).  

 

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can reduce 

the range.  

 

Do not mount near electrical wires, transmitting antennas or other items that will 

interfere 

with the signal. 

 

RF (radio frequency) signals do not travel well through moisture or dirt. 

 

MOUNT 

Option 1: 

 

Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall. 

 

Place the remote sensor onto the screw (hanging hole on the backside). 

 

Gently pull down to lock the screw in place.  

 

Option 2:    

 

Insert the mounting screw through the front of the remote sensor and into the wall.  

 

Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten). 

 

Position Weather station 

 

 

The weather station has a pull out stand to sit on a desk or table or can be wall 

mounted.  

 

Place within 

range 

of the remote sensor.  

 

The maximum transmitting range in open air is 200 feet (60 meters).  

 

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can reduce 

the range. 

 

Choose a location 6 feet or more from electronics such as cordless phones, wireless 

gaming systems, televisions, microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc., which can 

prevent signal reception. 

 

Be aware of electrical wires and plumbing within a wall. This will interfere with RF (radio 

frequency) signal reception. 

 

Distance/Resistance/Interference 

 

Distance:  

 

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 200 feet (60 meters) between the 

remote sensor and the weather station. This range is in open air with ideal conditions. 

 

Consider what is in the signal path between the weather station and the remote sensor. 

 

Avoid placing electronics in the signal path between the weather station and the remote 

sensor. 

 

Resistance:  

 

Obstacles such as walls, floors, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can 

reduce the range.
