3.2 Mounting
1)
Base station
With one foldable leg at the back of the unit, the base station can be placed onto any flat surface or wall
mounted at the desired location by the hanging holes also at the back of the unit. It is important to check
that the radio signal can be received before permanently mounting any of the units
2)
Remote sensor
To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting remote sensor in direct sunlight. We recommend
that you mount the remote sensor on an outside
n
orth-facing wall; obstacles such as walls, concrete, and
large metal objects will reduce the range. If a north facing wall is not possible, choose a shaded area,
under an eve.
1.
Use a screw or nail to affix the remote sensor to the wall.
2.
Hang the remote sensor up
using
string or
a
zip tie.
Note:
Make sure the sensor is mounted vertically and not lying down on a flat surface. This will insure
optimum reception. Wireless signals are impacted by distance, interference (other weather stations,
wireless phones, wireless routers, TVs and computer monitors), and transmission barriers, such as walls.
In general, wireless signals will not penetrate solid metal and earth (down a hill, for example).
