3.2 Sensor Placement and Connection

The wireless outdoor sensor transmits data to the main weather station. Optimal placement is crucial for accurate readings and reliable connection.

• Place the outdoor sensor in a shaded, dry location, protected from direct sunlight and heavy rain, to ensure accurate temperature and humidity readings.
• The sensor can be wall-mounted using the integrated hanging hole or placed on a flat surface using its stand.
• The transmission range is up to 60 meters (approximately 197 feet) in an open area. Walls, metal structures, and other electronic devices can reduce this range.
• The weather station supports connection with up to 3 wireless outdoor sensors. Additional sensors are sold separately.
