OUTDOOR TRANSMITTER
The outdoor temperature is measured and transmitted every 4 seconds.
The range of the temperature transmitter may be affected by the temperature. At
cold temperatures the transmitting distance may be decreased. Please bear this in
mind when placing the transmitter.
868 MHz RECEPTION:
The temperature station should receive the temperature data within 2 minutes after
set-up.
If the temperature data is not received 2 minutes after setting up (the outdoor
display shows “- - -”, please check the following points:
1.
The distance of the temperature station or transmitter should be at least 1.5
to 2 meters away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or
TV sets.
2.
Avoid placing the receiver onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window
frames.
3.
Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating
on the same signal frequency (868MHz) may prevent correct signal
transmission and reception.
4.
Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 868 MHz signal
frequency can also cause interference.
Note:
When the 868MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of
either the transmitter or Temperature station, as the batteries may spring free from
the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all
units (see
Setting up
above) otherwise transmission problems may occur.
The transmission range is about 100 m from the transmitter to the temperature
station (in open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and
