QUICK SET-UP GUIDE 
 
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline Batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries. 

 

1.

 

Have the indoor thermo station and remote temperature sensor 3 to 5 
feet apart. 

2.

 

Batteries should be out of both units for 10 minutes. 

3.

 

Place the batteries into the 

remote temperature sensor

 first then into 

the 

thermo station

(All outdoor remotes must be started before the indoor station) 

4.

 

DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 15 MINUTES. 

 
In this time the indoor thermo station and remote temperature sensor will start to talk 
to each other and the display will show the indoor temperature and an outdoor 
temperature.  If the indoor thermo station does not display all information after the 
15 minutes please retry the set up as stated above.  After all information has been 
displayed for 15 minutes you can place your sensor outdoors and set your time. 
 
The remote temperature sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded area.  The remote 
temperature sensor has a range of 330 feet.  Any walls that the signal will have to 
pass through will reduce distance.  An outdoor wall or window can have up to 30 
feet of resistance and an interior wall can have up to 20 feet of resistance.  Your 
distance plus resistance should not exceed 330 ft. in a straight line. 
 

Note:

  Fog and mist will not harm your remote temperature sensor but direct rain 

must be avoided. 
 

Note:

  The remote temperature sensor transmits a signal every minute.  After the 

batteries have been installed, the indoor thermo station will search for the signal for 
a duration of 15 minutes.  If there is no temperature reading in the OUTDOOR LCD 
after 15 minutes, make sure the units are within range of each other, or repeat the 
battery installation procedure.  If a button is pressed before the indoor weather 
station receives the temperature signal, you will need to follow the battery 
installation procedure again. 
 
To complete the set up of your wireless temperature station after the 15 minutes have 
passed please follow the steps that follow in the Detailed Set-Up Guide.
