RIGHT ARROW: Temperature has
not changed
more than 2°F /1°C in the past three hours
DOWN ARROW: Temperature fell more than 2°F /1°C in the past three hours
MIN/MAX Temperature readings
Explanation:
The temperature station shows the daily minimum and maximum temperatures each day
starting at midnight (12:00 AM). The temperature station automatically resets the MIN/MAX temperatures
at midnight (12:00 AM).
View MIN data:
Press and release the MIN TEMP button to view the minimum Indoor and Outdoor
Temperatures.
Reset MIN data:
Hold the MIN TEMP button for 5 seconds and the Indoor and all Outdoor Minimum
Temperatures will reset. The temperature area will show dashes briefly then return to current
temperatures.

Mounting/Positioning Outdoor sensor
First:
Place the outdoor sensor in the desired shaded location and the temperature station in the home.
Wait approximately 1 hour before permanently mounting the outdoor sensor to ensure that there is proper
reception.
POSITION
Mount outdoor temperature outdoor sensors
vertically
.
Protect the outdoor sensor from standing rain or snow and from the overhead sun, which can cause it
to read incorrectly.
Mounting under an eave or deck rail works well.
If you choose, you can construct a small roof or box for the outdoor sensor. Be sure a box has vents.
Mount the outdoor sensor on the North side where to prevent sun from causing incorrect readings.
Mount at least 6 feet in the air for a strong RF (radio frequency) signal.
Outdoor sensors are water resistant, not waterproof.
Avoid more than one wall between the outdoor sensor and the temperature station.
The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 300 feet (91 meters).
Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can reduce the range.
Do not mount near electrical wires, transmitting antennas or other items that will
with the
signal.
RF (radio frequency) signals do not travel well through moisture or dirt.
Do not mount the outdoor sensor on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the effective
MOUNT
Option 1:
Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall.
Place the outdoor sensor onto the screw (hanging hole on the backside).
Gently pull down to lock the screw in place.
Option 2:
Insert the mounting screw through the front of the outdoor sensor and into the wall.
Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten).
Position Temperature Station
The temperature station has a wide base to sit on a desk or table.
Place within
of the outdoor sensor.
