VII. MOUNTING
Note: Before permanently mounting, ensure that the indoor weather station is
able to receive signals from the sensors and WWVB signal at the desired
location. To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting the remote
temperature sensor (or any sensor) where direct sunlight can reach the remote
sensor. We recommend that you mount the remote sensor on a North-facing
wall or under an eve. The sending range of the remote temperature sensor is
300-ft (100m) however obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal
objects can reduce the range. Place all units in their desired location, and wait
approximately 15 minutes before permanently mounting to ensure that there is
proper reception. If the indoor weather station loses the signal from the remote
sensor, it will display the last temperature reading for 15 minutes. After 15
minutes of not receiving any signals, the remote temperature will display “- -.-”.
A. Mounting the Remote Temperature Sensor
The remote temperature sensor can be mounted in two ways:
with the use of screws
using the adhesive tape
1. MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
a. Remove the mounting bracket from the remote
temperature sensor.
b. Place the mounting bracket over the desired location.
c. Through the three screw holes of the bracket, mark
the mounting surface with a pencil.
d. Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface.
Ensure that the screws are flush with the bracket.
e. Insert the remote temperature sensor into the bracket.
2. MOUNTING WITH ADHESIVE TAPE
a. With a nonabrasive solution, clean and dry the back
of the mounting bracket and the mounting surface to
ensure a secure hold. The mounting surface should
be smooth and flat.
b. Remove the protective strip from one side of the tape.
c. Adhere the tape to the designated area on the back of
the mounting bracket.
d. Remove the protective strip from the other side of the
tape.
e. Position the remote temperature sensor in the desired
location, ensuring that the indoor weather station can
receive the signal.
