sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents.
• Display and add-on Monitors/Sensors must be within 330 feet (100 m) of

• To maximize wireless range, place product away from large metallic items, thick
walls, metal surfaces, or other objects that may limit wireless communication.
• To prevent wireless interference, place product at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from
electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.).
