For accurate outdoor readings, proper placement of the wireless sensor is crucial:

  • Place the sensor in a shaded area, away from direct sunlight, to prevent inaccurate temperature readings.
  • Asegúrese de que haxa unha boa circulación de aire arredor do sensor.
  • Mount the sensor vertically, approximately 1.5 to 2.5 meters (5 to 8 feet) above the ground.
  • Avoid placing the sensor near heat sources (e.g., vents, windows) or moisture sources.
  • The maximum transmission range is 100 meters (328 feet) in open air. Walls and other obstacles will reduce this range.
