2.5 Sensor Operation Verification

Verify the indoor and outdoor humidity match closely with the console and sensor array in the same
location (about 10' apart). The sensors should be within 10% (the accuracy is ± 5%). Allow about 30
minutes for both sensors to stabilize.
Verify the indoor and outdoor temperature match closely with the console and sensor array in the same
location (about 10' apart). The sensors should be within 4°F (the accuracy is ± 2°F). Allow about 30
minutes for both sensors to stabilize.

3. Remote Sensor Installation

It is recommended you mount the remote sensor on a north facing wall, in a shaded area (the sensor
can mount to a horizontal or vertical surface). Direct sunlight and radiant heat sources will result in
inaccurate temperature readings. Although the sensor is water resistant, it is best to mount in a well
protected area, such as an eve.
Use 3 screws to affix the mounting bracket to the wall, as shown in Figure 1. Connect the remote
sensor to the wall bracket (it will snap into place).
