HOW TO READ THE KINETIC

WAVE DISPLAY

The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the
main unit. There are three possible forms:

The unit is in searching mode.

Temperature readings are securely
registered.

No signals.

MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM

TEMPERATURES

The maximum and minimum recorded indoor temperatures and
those of each channel will be automatically stored in memory. To
display them,

1. Select the channel to be checked.

2. Press MEMORY once to display the maximum temperature and

again the minimum temperature. The respective indicators,
MAX or MIN will be displayed.

To clear the memory, hold down MEMORY for two seconds. The

maximum and minimum temperatures will be erased. If you press

MEMORY now, the maximum and minimum temperatures will

have the same values as the current ones until different readings are

recorded.

DISCONNECTED SIGNALS

If without obvious reasons the display for a particular channel
goes blank, press CHANNEL and MEMORY to enforce an
immediate search. If that fails, check:

1. The remote unit of that channel is still in place.

2. The batteries of both the remote unit and main unit. Replace as

necessary.

Note: When the temperature falls below freezing point, the

batteries of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their voltage
supply and the effective range.

3. The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles

and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary.

TRANSMISSION COLLISION

Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home
security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of
this product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is normal
and does not affect the general performance of the product. The
transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume
once the interference recedes.

NOTE ON °C AND °F

The unit of temperature display is selected on the °C/°F slide
switch. Select °C for Centigrade or °F for Fahrenheit.

Note: The remote temperature display shown on the main unit is
dominated by the selection on the °C/°F slide switch of the main
unit. Whatever the display units of the remote sensors are, they will
be automatically converted to the chosen one of the main unit.
