SETUP
WHEN ONE TRANSMITTER IS USED
1.
First, insert the batteries in the transmitter (see “
How to install and
replace batteries in the Thermo-hygro outdoor transmitter
”
on
page 11).
2.
Within 2 minutes of powering up the transmitter, insert the batteries
in the Weather Station (see “
How to install and replace batteries
in the Weather Station
”
on pages 11-12). Once the batteries are
in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly and a short
signal tone will sound. Following the indoor temperature/humidity
and the time, as 12:00 will be displayed. If this information is not
displayed on the LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and
wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them. Once the
indoor data is displayed user may proceed to the next step.
3.
After the batteries are inserted, the Weather station will start
receiving data signal from the transmitter. The outdoor temperature
and humidity data should then be displayed on
the Weather station.
If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be
removed from both units and reset from step 1.
4.
The distance between the Weather Station and the transmitter
6
should not be more than 300 feet to ensure sufficient 915 MHz
transmission. (see notes on “
Positioning” and “915 MHz
Reception
”).
Note:
In the event of changing batteries of the units, ensure the batteries
do not spring free from the contacts. Always wait at least 1 minute after
removing the batteries before reinserting, otherwise start up and
transmission problems may occur.
WHEN MORE THAN ONE TRANSMITTER IS USED
1.
User shall remove all the batteries from the Weather Station and
transmitters, and wait 60 seconds.
2.
Insert the batteries in the first transmitter.
3.
Within 2 minutes of powering up the first transmitter, insert the
batteries in the Weather Station. Once the batteries are in
place, all
segments of the LCD will light up briefly and a short signal tine will
sound. Following the indoor temperature/humidity and the time as
12:00 will be displayed. If this information is not displayed on the
LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries from both units and
wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them.

4.
The outdoor temperature and humidity data from the first
transmitter (channel 1) and the signal reception icon should be
displayed on the Weather Station. If this does not happen after 2
minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and
reset from step 1.
5.
Insert the batteries in the second transmitter as soon as the signal
reception icon and outdoor data are displayed on the Weather
Station. Then within 2 minutes, the channel 2 outdoor data from the
second transmitter and the "channel 2" icon should be displayed on
the Weather Station. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the
batteries will need to be removed from all the units and reset from
step 1.
Note :
User shall insert the batteries into the second transmitter
within 45 seconds after the Weather Station displays the
information of the first transmitter.
6.
Insert the batteries in the third transmitter as soon as the "channel
2" icon and outdoor data are displayed on the Weather Station.
Then within 2 minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third
transmitter will be displayed and the channel icon will shift back to
"1" once the third transmitter is successfully received. If this is not
happen, user shall restart the setting up from step 1.
8
Note :
User shall insert the batteries into the third transmitter within
45 seconds after the Weather Station displays the information of
the first transmitter. Or immediately after reception of the second
transmitter is finished.
7.
The distance between the Weather Station and the transmitter
should not be more than 300 feet to ensure sufficient 915 MHz
transmission. (see notes on “
Positioning” and “915 MHz
Reception
”).
IMPORTANT:
Transmission problems will arise if the setting for additional sensors is not
followed as described above. Should transmission problems occur, it is
necessary to remove the batteries from all units and start again the set-up
from step 1.
Notes:
If the signal reception is not successful on the first frequency of
915MHz for 45 seconds, the frequency is changed to 920MHz and
the learning is tried for another 45 seconds. If it is still not
successful the reception is tried for 45 seconds on 910MHz. This
will also be done during re-synchronization.
