MOUNTING: WHERE DO I POSITION MY SENSOR & STATION?
•
Watch sensor mounting video:

•
Place your thermo-hygro sensor at least 6 feet off the ground.
•
For accurate temperature readings your sensor needs to be shaded from the sun and in a
well ventilated area. Trapped moisture will cause inaccurate readings.
•
Mount your sensor vertically to allow moisture to drain out the bottom.
•
Preferred location is on a north facing wall under an eave or deck rail.
•
Avoid placing near a metal roof that will cause it to read high on sunny days.
•
Avoid other sources of heat such as soffit vents, and window or door frames.
•
For accurate humidity readings, avoid placement near vegetation and lakes or other
bodies of water when possible.
•
Maximum transmission distance from your thermos-hygro sensor to your station, in open
air is 330 feet (100 meters).
•
Insert the mounting screw through the front of the transmitter and into the wall. Tighten
the screw to snug (do not over tighten).
POSITION STATIONS
Your stations are designed for placement on a desk or countertop.
•
Position within reach of an outlet that is always active. Some outlets in living rooms and
in bedrooms may only be active when the light switch is on.
•
This color station must operate with the 5 volt power cord in order to receive sensor
updates. Operation on battery power will only maintain time/date settings if you need to
move your station.
