MOUNTING: WHERE DO I POSITION MY SENSOR & STATION?
• Watch sensor mounting video: http://bit.ly/TH_SensorMounting
• 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 300 feet (91 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 STATION
Your station is designed for flexible placement on a desk or countertop, or it can hang on the
wall.
• 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.
