Operations -
Testing the units
After installing the batteries in the remote sensor and before
replacing the back cover, try the following test to make sure the
two units are communicating.
1. Place the two units approximately five feet apart and press
and hold for 2 seconds the TX button inside the battery
compartment on the remote sensor. The receiving unit
should now display the temperature reading for that sensor.
2. Next, place the sensor in the desired remote location and
place the receiving unit it its desired location.
3. Press and hold the TX button again.
4. Check the receiving unit display for that sensor. If the dash
icon (—) appears and flashes, it indicates a signal
interruption. RF signal interruptions can be caused by
interference from electronic devices or physical obstructions
such as walls, buildings etc...
5. Rotate the sensor in 45° steps and press the TX button
again to send the signal.
6. If there is still no display, move the remote sensor closer to
the receiving unit or reposition both the receiving unit and
the remote sensor until reception is observed.
7. When complete, put the rubber seal into the cover groove
and close the battery cover. Tighten the screws, and snap
on the bracket stand.
Note: For several days after initial installation, unit may beep
randomly while performing calibration.
Remote Channel Auto Scroll
When 2 or more remote sensors are operating, this device uses
the AUTO SCROLL function to automatically cycle through the
remote channels 1 to 3.
1. To enable the auto scroll function, press the CHANNEL
button to select channel 1, 2, 3 or AUTO SCROLL.
2. To manually retrieve a specific remote sensor temperature
reading, press the CHANNEL button until the desired
channel is displayed.
Using the Temperature Probe (
optional)
Your wireless weather station is equipped with a 6’ temperature
probe cord for measuring the temperature from any remote
location.
To use the probe
.
• Open the rubber cover of the hole at the side of the
remote sensor and insert the probe plug. (The probe is
now active.)
• If the outside temperature is extremely low (below 10°C),
place the probe sensor outside and keep the remote
sensor unit inside to avoid freezing up the battery.
• The temperature readings will be displayed on the remote
channel matched to the remote sensor.

Alert for Indoor Temp and each Remote channels procedure
This device can be programmed to alert you that the
temperature goes above or below a pre-determined range, either
at the receiving unit or at any of the 3 remote sensor locations.
1. Press ALERT button to enable or disable temperature alert.
2. Press & hold ALERT button for 2 seconds to set the
temperature range. The upper/lower icon will blink. Use
the “+” or “-” button to select Indoor (receiving unit), Remote
Channels 1, 2 or 3 (if 3 sensors are available).
3. Press the ALERT button to confirm. The upper limits
S
and
(—) icons will blink. Use the “+” or “-” to enter upper limit of
the temperature range. Press the ALERT button to confirm.
4. The lower limit icon
T
will blink. Use the “+” and “-” button to
enter the lower limit of the tempreature range, and press
ALERT to confirm.
5. To set temperature range alert values for other registered
channels, select the desired channel and repeat the same
procedure from (steps 1 to 4).
6. The upper/lower icon will appear and all alarms previously
set for each channel and indoor become active. When the
alert ranges are reached or passed, the alarm will sound and
upper/lower icon will flash.
Temperature Trend Indicator
The arrow icon will automatically show the temperature trend of
the remote channel as follows:
Temp increasing. Temp unchanged.
Temp decreasing.
Installation of Remote Sensor(s)
Locating the remote sensor in clear open area can provide a
maximum transmission distance of about 100 feet. Your actual
transmission distance can be reduced by interference from a
building or an obstruction or screen between the remote
sensor(s) and the receiving unit. The Remote sensor(s) can be
hung on a flat wall by means of a wood screw. They are also
equipped with a pull stand for setting on a horizontal surface.
Battery Replacement
The low battery icon will appear on the display of the receiving
unit when the batteries of the either the receiving unit or the
remote sensor(s) need replacement. Always use new batteries
as specified in the user’s manual. Do not mix old and new
batteries as old batteries may leak. After replacing batteries in
remote, you must re-register the sending and receiving units. To
do so use the CHANNEL button to select the desired channel.
Press and hold for 3 sec to register remote.
