a North-facing wall. The sending range is 80ft; obstacles such as walls,
concrete, and large metal objects will reduce the range. Also, extreme and
sudden changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the indoor
weather station and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate
weather forecasting for the next 12 to 24 hours. These changes will require
a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining reliable data. Place both units in
their desired location and wait approximately 10 minutes before
permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper reception. The indoor
weather station should display a temperature in the OUTDOOR LCD
within 4 minutes of setting up.
I. THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The remote temperature sensor can be mounted in two ways:
•
with the use of screws, or
•
using the adhesive tape.
A. MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
1)
Remove the mounting bracket from the remote
temperature sensor.
2)
Place the mounting bracket over the desired location.
Through the three screw holes of the bracket, mark
the mounting surface with a pencil.
3)
Where marked, start the screw holes into mounting
surface.
4)
Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface.
Ensure that the screws are flush with the bracket.
B. MOUNTING WITH ADHESIVE TAPE
1)
With a nonabrasive solution, clean and dry the back
of the mounting bracket and the mounting surface to
ensure a secure hold. The mounting surface should
be smooth and flat.
2)
Remove the protective strip from one side of the
tape. Adhere the tape to the designated area on the
back of the mounting bracket.
