BATTERY INSTALLATION

• Remove the battery door located at the back of the main unit.
• Insert two (2) AA batteries and replace the battery compartment door.

PLACEMENT

• Make sure that the main unit is locating within the operating range of all remote sensors. 
• Ideally the main unit should be placed within line of sight of remote sensors. Avoid placing 
  the main unit where surfaces emitting and radiating heat (e.g. heating ducts or air conditioners) 
  and areas with interference from wireless devices (e.g. cordless phones, radio headsets, baby 
  monitoring devices and other electronics).

OPERATION

Once the main unit is powered, the display will show all available LCD segments for a moment.

IMPORTANT:

 All of the display functions will be locked, allowing setting of your local 

altitude and pressure parameters by pressing the 

UP (? )

 or 

DOWN (? )

 and 

SET

 buttons. The 

locked display will show the pressure icon and abbreviation 

“inHg”

 flashing in the 

Weather Forecast/ Pressure Window,

 default time 

in Clock Window

 and channel 1’s 

temperature and humidity readings in 

Temperature/ Humidity Window.

If pressure and altitude are not configured during this time, the unit will self-calibrate in a few 
minutes and show the default settings for the pressure and altitude (sea level) and all remote 
weather sensors readings.

GETTING STARTED

WEATHER FORECAST

This unit is capable of detecting the atmospheric pressure changes. Based on collected weather 
data, it forecasts the weather for the next 12 to 24 hours.

NOTE: The weather forecast accuracy is approximately 70%.
The main unit display shows forecasted (predicted) not current conditions. The SUNNY 
icon indicates clear weather, even when displayed during the nighttime.
