2. Transmissió sense fil
The sensor transmits data wirelessly to the main WF-80C unit. The wireless transmission range is up to 100 metres (aproximadament 328 peus) in an open area. Obstacles such as walls, metal structures, and electronic interference can reduce this range.
Manteniment
1. Substitució de la bateria
When the battery indicator on the main unit or the sensor's display shows low power, replace both AA batteries promptly to ensure continuous operation and accurate readings. Follow the battery installation steps in the Setup section.
2. Neteja
Netegeu el sensor amb un drap suauamp drap. No utilitzeu productes de neteja abrasius ni submergiu la unitat en aigua.
3. Consideracions ambientals
While the sensor is designed for outdoor use, prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions (e.g., heavy rain, direct sunlight, or temperatures significantly outside its operating range) can affect its lifespan and accuracy. Ensure it is placed under a shelter if used outdoors.
