2. Select a channel then press RESET.
3. Close the battery door.
4. Place the sensor within 30 m (98 ft) of the main unit
using the table stand or wall mount.
TIP Ideal placements for the sensor would be in any
location on the exterior of the home at a height of not
more than 1.5 m (5 ft) and which can shield it from direct
sunlight or wet conditions for an accurate reading.
1.5 m(5 ft)
Use alkaline batteries for longer usage and
consumer grade lithium batteries in temperatures below
freezing.
