SECTION 3 • PLACEMENT

Now that setup is complete, you must choose a location to place the 3

wireless sensors and the main unit. The wireless sensors MUST be

placed LESS THAN 100 feet away from the main unit.

This wireless weather station uses radio frequency for communication,

which is susceptible to interference from other electronic devices and

large metallic items or thick walls. Always place both units at least 3 feet

away from appliances ( TV, microwave, radios, etc. ) or objects ( large

metal surfaces, thick stone walls, etc. ) that may interfere with the

wireless communication.

Place the main unit in a dry area free of dirt and dust. To help ensure

an accurate indoor temperature measurement, be sure to place the

main unit out of direct sunlight, and away from any heat sources or

vents in your home.

There are 2 placement options for the main unit. You may hang the

main unit on a wall using the integrated hang hole on the back.

Alternatively, you may place the main unit on a table top or other flat

surface utilizing the removable main unit display stand.

1. Attach the wind sensor to the

mounting bracket by simply

sliding into the bracket.

2. The sensor must be mounted

with the bracket pointing NORTH

as indicated on the bracket and

on the top surface of the wind sensor itself. The wireless wind sensor

should be mounted high above all potential wind obstructions for

maximum performance, keeping in mind it must remain within the 100

ft. wireless range of the main display unit.

Attach to a solid surface utilizing screws and wall anchors (if applicable).

Depending on the mounting surface, other steps may need to take place

to ensure the sensor is mounted successfully.
