2.4 Display Console Set Up 

1.

 

Move  the  remote  thermo-hygrometer(s)  about  5  to  10’  away  from  the  display  console  (if  the 

sensor is too close, it may not be received by the display console). If you have more than one 
thermo-hygrometer,  make  sure  they  are  all  powered  up  and  transmitting  on  different 
channels.

 

 

2.

 

Remove  the  battery  door  on  the  back  of  the  display,  as  shown  in 

Figure  4

.  Insert  two  AAA 

(alkaline or lithium, avoid rechargeable) batteries in the back of the display console. 

 

Figure 4 

All of the LCD segments will light up for a few seconds to verify all segments are operating properly. 
 

3.

 

Replace  the  battery  door,  and  fold  out  the  desk  stand  and  place  the  console  in  the  upright 

position. 

 

 

The console will instantly display indoor temperature and humidity as designated by the 

 

icon.    The remote temperature and humidity will update on the display within a few minutes 
on the appropriate channel. 

 

While in the search mode, the remote search icon 

  will be constantly displayed.

 

 

If you have more than one remote sensor (up to eight remotes are supported), the display will 
automatically toggle between sensors until all sensors have reported in.

 

Do  not  touch  any  buttons  until  the  remote  sensor  has  reported  in,  or  the  transmitter  search 

icon 

  is no longer on, otherwise the remote sensor search mode will be terminated. When 

the  remote  sensor  temperature  and  humidity  has  been  received,  the  console  will 
automatically switch to the normal mode, and all further settings can be performed. 

 
              If the remote does not update, please reference the troubleshooting guide in Section 8.

The  following  illustration  shows  the  full  segments  of  the  LCD  for  description  purposes 

only and will not appear like this during normal operation.
