Measure Household Heating
and Cooling Coverage
Fine tune your heating and cooling systems
to ensure efcient distribution of hot or cool
air around the home by placing multiple
Monitors and Wired Sensors strategically
throughout your house.
Suggested Placement
Place the Wired Sensors in a way to
achieve maximum coverage; on different
oors, at opposite ends of the house, etc.
(This will require the use of multiple Room
Monitors and Wired Sensors.) See Figure (B).

Monitor Conditions in Hard-to-Reach Places
Identifying abnormal temperatures or humidity
levels can help prevent property damage. For
example, high temperatures and humidity can
facilitate the growth of mold or corrosion of
metals. Low humidity levels and rapid changes in
temperature can damage expensive investments.
Suggested Placement
Mount the Wired Sensor using the included
mounting bracket and hardware, choosing the
mounting method (screws/anchors, zip ties
or suction cups) that best suits the available
mounting point. The sensor can also t in a 1/2
inch diameter hole to monitor any space. See
Figure (C).

Monitor Pet Tanks
Reptiles and other exotic pets are sensitive to
changes in temperature and humidity conditions.
Easily monitor tanks and cages to ensure the
proper conditions are maintained.
Suggested Placement
Mount the Wired Sensor to a tank using the
included mounting bracket. Suction cups easily
afx to glass tanks. See Figure (D).

OPERATION
Using the Sensor
The Wired Sensor requires either the Room Monitor or the Outdoor
Temperature and Humidity Monitor to be operational. Compatible digital
displays are available for both Monitors.
The Outdoor Monitor requires a companion unit (ex. digital display).
The Room Monitor features a built-in digital display. When using a Wired
Sensor with the Room Monitor, the Monitor’s temperature and humidity
readings move to the top of the display. The display automatically toggles
between the Monitor’s temperature and humidity data, and the Wired Sensor’s
readings appear in the middle of the display (pictured below).
