PLACEMENT OF OUTDOOR SENSOR AND BASE STATION
• Place the outdoor sensor so that it faces the base station (receiver),
minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and furniture.
• Though the outdoor sensors are weather resistant, they should be
placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow. The optimal location
for the outdoor sensor is under the eaves on the north side of a build-
ing with free air circulation.
• The outdoor sensor can be placed on a fl at surface or mounted on a
wall vertically by using the included stand. To affi x the stand in place,
use a screw rather than a nail.
• Ideally, place the outdoor sensor over soil, rather than asphalt, which
may affect the correct temperature measurement.
• Avoid placing the outdoor sensor near sources of heat, such as chim-
neys and heating elements.
• Avoid areas that collect heat from the sun and radiate heat, such as
metal, brick or concrete structures, paving and patios.
• The international standard for accurate air temperature measurements
is 1.25 metres (4 feet) above the ground.
• Make sure that the base station is located within the operating range
of all outdoor sensors.
• Ideally, the base station should be placed within line of sight of the
outdoor sensors. Avoid placing the base station near surfaces that
emit or radiate heat (e.g. heating ducts or air conditioners) and areas
with interference from wireless devices (e.g. cordless phones, radio
headsets, baby monitoring devices and other electronics).
