• Though the remote sensors are weather-resistant, they should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow. The optimal location for the remote sensor outdoors is under the eaves on the north side of the building. REMOTE TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY SENSOR (TS23C) FEATURES • Remote data transmission to the main unit via 433 MHz frequency • [...]

BATTERY INSTALLATION NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing point 32°F (0°C), battery voltage will drop which may result in reduced the transmission range. For optimum performance in cold weather conditions, we recommend using lithium batteries. NOTE: Install the batteries and select the channel before mounting the remote sensor. • Rem[...]
