Where do you place the sensor? I'm just not sure where you place the sensor?

Hello M. Waiter: The sensor does not need direct line of site and can be mounted on the back of the TV and still "see" the remote commands. It has a velcro kit and a plastic clamp and screw for mounting the Eye in a door slot, toe-kick or behind a cabinet, speaker grill or even a wall plate. The primary intention of the Hot Link Pro sytem is to not drill a hole and still see remote controls. So hide the AV gear and Hide Hot Link Pro. Best regards, Marcus, Microsmith Inc.

I put the sensor inside a utility closet at the side of my house. It works great. I would think it would work just fine between a window and screen. Also, there is a round attachment on the back of the sensor that you could put a string around and hang it from that.

My home security guys placed motion sensors lower the ground, then upside down...so the the sensor sees upward from where it's placed. This may work the same way.

I would think you could use it where ever you wanted to. How do you plan on powering the sensor and processing the information that the sensor transmits?

I bought this as a gift as I received a similar one as one. For mine, the outside sensor should be sheltered from direct sunlight as you want the temperature to reflect "in the shade." How you could do this without "getting rained on" is beyond me. Mine is under an eve. If you have no eve access, I suggest you improvise a simple one. make sure there's enough circulation room as to not trap heat and damage the sensor or at least cause it to give invalid readings. Good luck...

I am currently trying to get it to work, the software loads fine but I cannot get the computer to recognize the sensor. I sent an email to the manufacturer, will let you know if I get a response.

Make sure the sensor is not covered. I don't know what else would be an issue

I bought only the sensor. I'm on my second sensor now I got about a years use out of the first one.

The sensor is built into the top of the unit and does control it but is not separate from the device itself. They should use the term "control" sensor and not remote sensor.

While I haven't tried to do it, I believe that you can add a sensor to this unit. I can't find it on Amazon, but here's the link to Home Depot. Again, I haven't tried it, but this is clearly the sensor that's with this unit. http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/202216934?productId=202216934&storeId;=10051&langId;=-1&catalogId;=10053&ci;_sku=202216934&cm;_mmc=shopping%2d%5f%2dgoogleads%2d%5f%2dpla%2d%5f%2d202216934&ci;_gpa=pla

The sensor is located inside the unit so location is important. I placed mine in the same opening as the original detector. It should be as close to the floor as possible since propane is heavier then air.

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.

I had the same problem. I re-checked the wiring to make sure I had it right. It was hooked up right and my problem was the sensor was to close to the light when it came on. I just pointed the sensor as far fom the light bulb as I could and haven't had a problem since.

I think the reason the sensor is on the bottom, is that the unit is usually mounted under an eave or ledge, and this allows the daylight that turns the unit off better access to the sensor. My main grip with this type of unit isthat it usually turns on in the evening well before it is even remotely dark, and stays on well after it becomesreally light in the morning. The problem you mention of the unit cycling on and off can happen. It is usuallycaused by bad positioning of the unit. The light from the unit can reflect off the building causing the unit tocycle on and off. It can usually be taken care of by repositioning the unit, or by providing some sort of shield-ing.

There are holes in the back for a screw or nail. It is very light weight. The sensors are two dime sized metal pads on the base so you can just set it on the surface you want to protect. Unhook the base plate (like a battery cover) and you can put the sensors about 6' feet away on a wire that plays out. If you do this you might want to mount it since the base is now partly removed.

It is in the install instructions. If u don't have them try google. It is all about moving te sensing unit to the right or left.
