BATTERIES: WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT BATTERIES?
• Good fresh batteries are important for best performance in your sensor and as backup in
your clock.
• Batteries with an expiration date of 2028, were manufactured in 2018.
• We recommend batteries with an expiration date 6 years in advance of the current year for
best performance.
• A minimum voltage of 1.48 v per battery is required for best performance.
• Lithium batteries may be used in outdoor sensors. Alkaline batteries for the clock.
HARDWARE: SENSORS AND CLOCK
Your 616-1410 & 616-12667 clocks come with:
TX141TH-Bv3 433MHz RF.
WHAT ARE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS CLOCK?
TX141TH-Bv3: 2 “AA” batteries
Clock: 5-volt power adapter AC6: GPU280500150WAOO
Optional: 3 “AAA” LR3 Batteries
SETUP: HOW DO I SETUP MY CLOCKS?
1.
Insert 2-AA batteries into your Outdoor Sensor.
2.
Insert the 5 volt power cord into an outlet, then into your 616-1410. Optional: Insert 3-AA
batteries for backup.
3.
Once the sensor is reading to your clock, place it outside in a shaded location to protect
it from the sun’s heat. Allow up to 10 minutes for sensors to connect.
MOUNTING: WHERE DO I MOUNT/POSITION MY SENSOR?
• Watch sensor mounting video: http://bit.ly/TH_SensorMounting
• Place your thermo-hygro sensor at least 6 feet off the ground.
• For accurate temperature readings your sensor needs to be shaded from the sun and in a
well ventilated area. Trapped moisture will cause inaccurate readings.
• Mount your sensor vertically to allow moisture to drain out the bottom.
• Preferred location is on a north facing wall under an eave or deck rail.
• Avoid placing near a metal roof that will cause it to read high on sunny days.
• Avoid other sources of heat such as soffit vents, and window or door frames.
