Power up
Insert 2-AA batteries into your Outdoor Sensor.
Power up as a Replacement Sensor
Refer to the owner’s manual for your clock or weather station to see if you can Search for Sensor. If so, enable a search and press the TX button (transmission) on your sensor.
If there is no Search option, try this:
- Bring your sensor inside next to the station and remove batteries from both devices.
- Press any button at least 20 times, and then wait 15 minutes.
- After the wait, install fresh batteries into both your sensor and station. Your outdoor temperature should return within the next few minutes.
- Keep your sensor next to the station for another 15 minutes to establish a strong connection.
- Once connection is reestablished, place sensor outside in a shaded location.
Position Sensor
Option 1:
- Install one mounting screw into a wall.
- Place the transmitter onto the screw.
Option 2:
- Insert the mounting screw through the front of the sensor and into the wall.
- Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten).
- Mount the temperature sensor on a north-facing wall or in any well shaded location. Sun will make it read high.
- Under an eave or deck rail is preferred.
- Be sure the outdoor sensor is mounted vertically to drain moisture.
- The maximum wireless transmission range to the weather station is over 330 feet (100 meters) in open air, not including walls or floors.
