NOTE on material damage
Protect the base station and wireless
Protect the base station from moisture.
The maximum distance between the base station and
the outdoor sensor must not exceed 60 metres. This
range is, however, only possible with "direct line of
sight".
Protective construction materials such as reinforced
concrete reduce or inhibit signal reception between
the base station and outdoor sensor.
Devices such as TVs, cordless phones, computers, and
fluorescent tubes can likewise disrupt signal reception.
Do not place the base station and outdoor sensors
directly on the ground. This limits the range.
At low temperatures in winter, the performance of the
outdoor sensor batteries can markedly decrease. This
reduces the transmission range.

sensors from dust, shocks, extreme
temperatures, and direct sunlight.
Position the base station exclusively in
a dry, closed room. The wireless sensors
are protected against moisture, but must
be protected against direct exposure to
moisture such as rain.
