Operating
Directions
(Powering
up):
Remove
the
blue
overlay
on
the
receiver
(if
you
don’t,
the
numbers
will
never
change
–
ha!!!)
Remove
the
battery
compartment
doors
from
the
receiver
and
the
RS211/213
remote
transmitter.
Press
“in”
and
push
“down”
on
the
RS211/213
remote
rear
cover.
It
should
slide
off
easily.
Insert
3
“AAA”
alkaline
batteries
in
the
indoor
receiver
(FIRST).
Alternatively,
plug
in
the
4.5v
AC/DC
adaptor.
When
using
the
AC
adaptor
you
may
either
leave
the
batteries
in
the
receiver
for
backup
purposes
(recommended)
or
not.
After
“powering
up”
the
receiver,
it
will
search
for
a
remote
signal
for
3
minutes.
Insert
2
“AAA”
alkaline
batteries
in
the
RS211/213
remote
transmitter.
The
temperature
will
appear
on
the
upper
half
of
the
screen
and
humidity
on
the
lower
half.
“CH
1”
will
appear
just
to
the
left
of
the
humidity
number.
If/when
you
add
a
second
and/or
third
remote,
press
the
“CH”
button
inside
the
battery
compartment
to
choose
either
channels
2
or
3.
You
will
probably
need
a
magnifying
glass
if
you
really
need
to
see
“CH2”
or
“CH3”.
Suffice
it
to
say,
“CH1”
is
at
the
top
left
corner
of
the
Humidity
number,
“CH2”
is
in
the
middle
and
“CH3”
is
in
the
lower
left.
See
“C3”
on
the
illustration
page.
Within
three
minutes,
the
remote
temperature
will
appear
on
the
receiver.
Be
sure
the
receiver
is
also
set
on
channel
1.
Note:
if
you
prefer
your
temperatures
in
°F,
press
and
release
the
DOWN
button
(quite
logical,
yes?).
So,
you
now
have
two
temperature
and
humidity
readings
showing
on
the
receiver
(in
and
out).
Please
understand
that
at
this
point
even
though
the
receiver
and
the
remote
are
close
together,
the
temperatures
will
not
match
exactly.
Due
to
electronic
tolerances,
it
could
take
up
to
48
hours
for
them
to
come
within
1°C
(2°F).
Don’t
bother
waiting
(there
is
no
point).
You
may
relocate
the
RS211/213
at
any
time.
For
location
hints,
see
“Locating
the
Remote”
at
the
end
of
these
instructions.
If
you
are
adding
a
second
or
third
RS211/213
transmitter,
install
the
batteries
and
set
the
channel
(on
the
remote)
to
either
channel
2
or
3
(D1).
On
the
receiver,
press
and
hold
the
“Channel”
button
for
2
seconds.
A
small
(tiny?)
antennae
icon
will
flash
to
the
right
of
the
word
“Humidity”
(A15).
All
remote
information
will
be
cleared
and
the
TempMinder®
will
search
for
new
information.
You
should
see
this
new
remote
information
within
3
minutes.
Press
the
channel
button
(on
the
receiver)
to
scroll
through
all
active
transmitters.
