Temperature Readings

Indoor temperature readings – these are temperatures at the thermometer’s location.
Outdoor temperature readings – these are temperatures that can be measured by the attached sensor probe. Open a window and run the cable through the opening so that the sensor probe is exposed to the outdoor temperature. Gently close the window to avoid crimping or severing the cable.
Alternately, the probe may be used to measure temperatures of aquar­iums, swimming pools, hot tubs, etc. Simply allow the end of the probe to hang where you wish to measure temperatures.
