When the batteries are properly installed, the remote sensor will resume sending signals to the weather station.
Hold the DOWN arrow button for 4–5 seconds on the weather station to search for the remote sensors.
Positioning Sensors Outside
Each sensor reads to the weather station independently.
Consider the location of the weather station in the house and in relation to each sensor outside.
The transmission range is 100 ft (30 m) open air, between each sensor and the weather station.
Obstacles such as trees, walls, concrete and large metal objects can reduce the range by one-half.
Place sensors and weather station in desired locations, and wait approximately 30 minutes before permanently
mounting to ensure that there is proper reception.
Wind
For most accurate wind readings, mount the wind sensor as the highest item in the area with a 50 foot clearance in all
directions (avoid tall trees, buildings or other obstructions that may block or reflect the wind).
Cup should be on the bottom.
Use 4 screws to mount the wind sensor vertically on a piece of wood about 3 inches wide.
Be sure the metal mast holder faces north so the direction will read correctly.
Roof Mounting: In most cases, at least 6 ft above the peak of the roof (or more) is required for accurate readings.
(Avoid tall trees or other obstructions that may block or reflect the wind).
