Start-up the transmitter-receiver communication:
• It is important to power-up the remote sensor
BEFORE
powe-
ring-up the main unit. Immediately after batteries are installed,
the remote sensor will start transmitting a temperature data to
the main unit.
• It is strongly recommended to power up and test communica-
tion between the remote sensor and the main unit
BEFORE
permanently mounting the sensor outside.
• During initial set up, place the remote sensor within a range
of 1m to the main unit in the same room, both receiver and
transmitter far from any other electric product.
• After reception is established (remote readings will appear on
the main unit’s display), position the remote sensor and the
main unit within the maximum transmission range of up to 30
meters (100 feet).
NOTE:
• Avoid pressing any button on the main unit before the remote
readings are displayed.
• Transmission or reception range may be affected by trees,
metal structures, electronic appliances, surrounding building
materials and how the main unit and transmitter are positioned.
Placement of sensor and main unit
• Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit (receiver),
minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and furniture.
• Though the remote sensors are weather-resistant, they should
be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow. The optimal
location for the outdoor sensor is under the eaves on the north
side of a building with free air circulation.
• The remote sensor can be placed on the fl at surface or moun-
ted on the wall in vertical position by using the included stand.
For fi xing the stand, use a screw, rather than a nail.
