Carrier Infinity Thermostat Weather Station

[controltestguy]

Hello... New heater install with the Infinity WIFI T-Stat. The weather station has a place for the real-time outside air temperature but it is blank. I suspect that it requires a remote sensor. Is that correct? Would it be wireless or hard-wired. I was not home when the heater/T-Stat was installed and the technicians did not mention anything to my wife.

Only thing I could find was to go here:

and click on Infinity System Control Installation Quick Start Guide

It shows an OAT(Outdoor Air Temperature) optional connection. But since it can connect to your local WiFi, you would think it could get the current temperature from the internet. I have a similar Honeywell T6 Pro and it shows the outside temperature that it got from the internet.
