Mounting the thermo-hygro Sensor
An ideal mounting place for the thermo-hygro sensor would be the
outer wall beneath the extension of a roof, as this will protect the
sensor from direct sunlight and other extreme weather conditions.
To wall mount, use the 2 screws to affix the wall bracket to the
desired wall, plug in the thermo-hygro sensor to the bracket and
secure both parts by the use of the supplied screw to prevent tipping
and ensure that the cables from the wind and rain sensors are
correctly plugged in otherwise data transmission errors could occur.
Place the Outdoor sensor in a well-shaded area that is protected from
direct rainfall and sun, as it will read high if exposed to the sun. If the
sensor gets too wet it will never read accurate humidity again, so take
care to ensure that it will not be exposed to a downpour. Light inci-
dental exposure to water typically will not harm the sensor.
You can also build a small roof or box for it if you do not have an
overhang. Please be sure it is well vented.
NOTE: For best 433 MHz reception mount the thermo-hygro
sensor on an outside wall near the location of the base station.
