IMPORTANT SETUP & OPERATION NOTES  
Temperature monitoring using optional detachable Wet probe*:  
The sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded area. Please avoid a  
location with direct sun, as that will cause incorrect readings.  
Fog and mist will not harm the sensor but direct rain must be avoided.  
Note: Exposing the sensor case to extreme humidity may temporarily  
disrupt data. The sensor case reads humidity, but should not be  
submerged in water. **Attach a 6 ft. wet probe to measure water  
temperature.

Soil temperature using probe:  
The sensor has a wireless range of 200 feet (60.96 m). Keep in mind that  
the 200 ft. range equates to open air with no obstructions, and that radio  
waves DO NOT curve around objects. Actual transmission range will vary  
depending on what is in the path of the signal. Each obstruction (roof,  
walls, floors, ceilings, thick trees, etc.) will effectively cut signal range in  
half.

Farms  
Gardens  
Greenhouses  
Metal siding, stucco, and some types of glass can reduce signal range by  
as much as ¾ or more, compared to the ½ reduction typical of most  
obstructions. It is possible to receive a signal through these materials,  
however maximum range will be reduced due to their tendency to absorb  
or reflect a much larger portion of the sensor’s signal.
