1.
Insert the batteries into the Temperature transmitter. Keep the transmitter 5-10 feet from the Weather
Station during set up.

To ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission after set up, the distance between the transmitter mounted
outside and the weather station inside should not exceed 330 feet (100 meters) distance (open air, no
obstructions).
6.
Test the weather station and the transmitter in the positions they will be located for one hour before
permanently mounting. If the outdoor temperature signal goes to dashes restart from step 1 and try a
new location.
