MOUNTING/POSITIONING  

 

First, set everything up in the house to be sure it works before mounting the 

sensors outside. 

   

TX141Wv2 sensor:  

• For the most accurate wind speed readings, mount the TX144W sensor as the 

highest object for 50 feet in all directions. 

• Mount sensor vertically with the wind cups on top. 

• The maximum wireless transmission range to the wind station is over 330 feet 

(100 meters) in open air, not including walls or trees. 

 

1. Insert mounting pole into sensor. 

2. Tighten screws 

3. Insert bottom of pole into mounting bracket 

4. Tighten knob to secure 

5. Use screws through the bottom of the mounting bracket to attach. 

6. The sensor may be mounted from the bottom or side. 

 

Use your own mounting pole: 

 

Insert your own mounting pole into the sensor. 

 

Tighten screws 

 

Optional: Add-on TX141TH-BCH sensor 

 

To mount the sensor, either use the hole at the top to hang it from the back 

using a nail, or insert one mounting screw through the front. 

 

Mount the TX141TH-BCH sensor on a north-facing wall or in any shaded area. 

Under an eave or deck rail is preferred. 

 

The maximum wireless transmission range to the weather station is over 330 

feet (100 meters) in open air, not including walls or floors. 

 

Mount the sensor vertically, to allow moisture to drain out properly.

DISTANCE/RESISTANCE/INTERFERENCE 

 

Distance:  

 

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 330 feet (100 meters) 

between the sensors and the Wind speed station. 

 

Consider what is in the signal path between the Wind speed station and the 

sensors. 

 

Consider the distance the Wind speed station is from other electronics in the 

home.
