How do you attach the sensor outside? There was nothing in the box with any attachments? I'm sure you don't just put this thing loose on the ground.

I mounted my transmitter on a exterior wall about 7' high near our driveway, there are knockouts on the rear cover that can be used for screw holes for mounting. The receiver is set inside about 75 feet away on a window sill.It works great. It should not be mounted on a metal surface.

Just open the unit and you will see two screw holes at the back where you can screw or bolt it to a surface.

Previous answer was correct. My only challenge with outdoor sensors was proximity .. downstairs thermostat couldn't talk with upstairs sensor outside a window. But adding sensors is totally the solution when you have multiple thermostats. Overall, great products from Honeywell!!!!!

The control panel, and the LCD display both come with anchors and screws so you can essentially mount them on anything you can drill/screw into. For the sensors, you will need some type of shallow thermowell. At a plumbing supply store I found thermowells, but they were much too large. So they had some temperature probes (needle type, non electric), and those probes were mounted on small thermowells, so I bought those. You might need to get creative for a residential situation.

None came with the unit. I would suggest contacting Waring and see if they offer any attachments.

Make sure bits of paper arent clinging or stuck in a place such that they would prevent the sensor from sensing. If u are handy. take the cover off and make sure a wire hasnt come loose or anything gone awry. If so, fix it! But most likely ur unit needs to be replaced or repaired by a Service Tech. I'm assuming its out of warranty - if not contace Royal. I had a small problem when mine was new and the resolved it over the phone.

There is only one sensor and it is inside the unit. I don't think this is meant to be outside, it mounts on the wall in the drywall.

Sorry. Don't buy it. It consumed batteries (costly) and after a while the sensor is not functional anymore as expected. Better buy one with foot mechanism. It will last longer. Hope that helps.

Sorry our trees are to far away to trip the sensor. Our trips are from people, pets and vehicles, the larger the object the farther away the trip seems to happen. As a side note still running on batteries installed 10 months previous.

Make sure that the area you place it is completely dark.. If there is any light around the sensor, it will not turn on.

I put mine on the side of the house so that the sensor would have input. check the instructions, you may be able to use it on timer only. DEL

Google the sensor and display to find the instructions. I seem to recall that there's a jumper on the circuit board that you need to set for one or two temp sensors. So I'd take a look at the docs before I gave up.

I have no idea. You would have to contact Amazon or the manufacturer. My feeling is, why not get the sensors? They can't be that much more money and then you'll have extra parts just in case.

Good evening. The sensor must be placed next to the unit when first turned on. Once the base receives the signal for the sensor, you may then re-locate the sensor outside. Melissa S. ~Wind & Weather Customer Service

Did you try pressing the "-" icon on top? You may need to do it a few times. Other than that you may be right that the sensor is the problem. Contact the company if the problem continues.

Just because this unit didn't come with a ground wire dose not mean you can't make one. Find a metal area on the frame of the unit-there should be a screw there somewhere to connect a wire and connect the other end to a metal area on the receiver-there should be a screw there also. I really hope this works for you-good luck.

I wish I had an answer. I had the same problem and never did get it to work outside.

no,never happened but you might want to reposition where your sensor is.Remember reading that your problem might happen if it's too close to certain objects.
