Display Unit Placement

Place display unit in a dry area

free of dirt and dust. Display stands

upright for tabletop use or is wall-

mountable. Viewing angle can be

adjusted by first loosening the locking

knobs, then by tilting the display to your desired

angle. Tighten knobs to set the angle.

For wall mounting, hang using the two keyholes

located on bottom of the base.

Outdoor Sensor Placement

Sensor must be placed outside to observe outdoor conditions. Sensor

is water resistant and is designed for general outdoor use, however, to

extend its life place the sensor in an area protected from direct weather

elements.
Hang the sensor using the integrated hang holes or hanger, or by using

string (not included) to hang it from a suitable location, like a well

covered tree branch. The best location is 4 to 8 feet above the ground

with permanent shade and plenty of fresh air to circulate around the

sensor.

Important Placement Guidelines

• To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place units out of direct

sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents.
• Display unit and outdoor sensor must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.
• To maximize wireless range, place units away from large metallic items, thick

walls, metal surfaces, or other objects that may limit wireless communication.
• To prevent wireless interference, place both units at least 3 ft (.9 m) away

from electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.).

Setup is Complete

The sensor will now synchronize with the display unit. It may take a few

minutes for synchronization to complete. NOTE: It will take up to 4 hours to

generate a weather forecast after initial setup.
