Choosing a location

The Acu-Link Internet Bridge receives data from sensors via 433mhz wireless radio frequency. Reception range of the signal from sensors can be limited by very thick concrete or metallic walls or materials. Other “noisy” electronic devices such as TVʼs and microwaves may also interfere with the signal reception.

To help ensure a successful reception from the AcuRite sensors, choose a suitable location no more than 330 feet from the sensor to place the Bridge. Choose a location free of large stone or concrete surfaces, metallic surfaces, and place at least 3 feet away from other electronic devices.
