Other instructions for start-up or troubleshooting
Turn the receiving weather station slightly; if there is no reception, mount it away
from electrical motors, electrical machines, televisions, computer monitors and
large metal surfaces. Also see chapter 13 (FCC Information)
To simplify start-up, you can also bring the sensors first close to the base station
(min. 3 ft. distance). You can then properly control the data transmission from the
sensor.
