6  MULTIPLE WIRELESS SENSORS 

The main unit supports up to three wireless sensors. Each additional wireless sensor 
must be designated a different channel number. Assigning different channel numbers 
differentiate each sensors temperature and hygrometer readings for the main units’ 
display. The included wireless sensor is automatically channel # 1. 

Additional wireless sensors are sold seperately. Call 1-800-556-2548 to order. 

 

1) Open each sensor by separating the front and back pieces  

 

3) Use the interior slide switch to select a channel 

 

    NOTE: use channel #2 and/or #3. Channel #1 is already taken by the included  

 

    wireless sensor. 

 

6) Press the TX button to send a signal to the main unit. 

 

7) Snap the front and back pieces together. 

 

8) Mount the sensor. See section 3 for placement of the remote sensor unit.

---

 is displayed as the wireless sensor temperature (OUT). 

Possible solutions: 

•Move sensor away from interference (electrical devices, metal surfaces, etc.).s 
•Batteries may need replacing. 
•Sensor could be out of range (more than 100 feet from the main unit). Place the sensor     
 closer to the main unit. 

Problem:

 The temperature shown for “OUT” (wireless sensor) seems to be inaccurate 

Possible solutions: 

•The wireless sensor will not send an outdoor temperature reading if it is not placed 
outdoors. Be sure that the wireless sensor is placed outdoors. 
•Make sure that the wireless sensor is out of direct sunlight or direct weather elements, 
these locations may cause inaccurate readings 
•Reset both units by removing all batteries and re-installing them (see section 2).
