Operation Manual

Selecting the installation site

Conditions for optimum operation:

• For optimum readability, the radio weather station should be

installed at eye level (approx. 1.7 m).

• The radio sensor should be mounted firedamp outside.

Direct sunlight, rain or snow can interfere with proper measure-

ment by the outside sensor.

• Set up radio sensor within a radius of max. 100 metres (free field)

from the radio weather station. The specified range is the free

field range, i.e. the range for visual contact between the radio

sensor and radio weather station.

In practical situations, however, there are walls, ceilings etc. be-

tween the transmitter and receiver, which reduce the range ac-

cordingly.

• Set up radio sensor at a sufficient distance from metallic objects

or electronic equipment.

• Cold (e.g. operation in the winter) has a negative effect on battery

voltage. This could lead to decreased range.

• The radio transmission from the radio sensor to the radio weather

station occurs in the 433 MHz range, which is also used by other

devices. This can lead to restricted operation and range.

Testing signal transmission

Before final installation, ensure that the positioning of the radio

sensor(s) and radio weather station enable proper signal

transmission.
