BEFORE YOU BEGIN
To ensure proper setup, please note the
following before you start:
•
Assign different channels to different
remote units.
•
Insert batteries in remote units before
doing so for the main unit (see
instructions for battery installation).
•
Place the main unit as close as
possible to the remote unit
•
Reset the main unit after installing
batteries. This will ensure easier
synchronization between the
transmission and reception of signals.
•
Position the remote unit and main unit
within effective transmission range,
which, in usual circumstances, is
65 to 100 feet.
Refer to the REMOTE SENSOR
section for sensor setup instructions.
BATTERIES
The Thermo Hygrometer uses 2 UM-3
("AA") alkaline batteries.
1. Remove the screw to open the battery
door.
2. Insert the batteries strictly according
to the polarities.
3. Select the temperature display unit on
the
°
C /
°
F slide switch.
4. Replace the battery door and fasten
the screw.
5. Replace the batteries when the low-
battery indicator of the indoor
temperature lights up (Repeat the
steps described in "Before You Begin",
above)
shows when batteries are low for the
main unit or for the selected remote unit.
GETTING STARTED
Once batteries are placed in a given
remote sensor unit, it will start transmitting
information at 40-second intervals.
Also, for approximately a 3-minute
duration, the main unit will automatically
search for signals once batteries are
installed. Upon successful reception, the
individual channel temperature reading will
be displayed on the upper window and the
respective humidity reading on the lower
window. The main unit will automatically
update its readings at about 40-second
intervals.
If no signals are received, blanks "---" will
show and the RF signal indicator will not
show.
NOTE
SEARCH FOR A SENSOR SIGNAL
Press and hold
IN / REMOTE
for
2-seconds to enforce a 3-minute search.
This is useful in synchronizing the
transmission and reception of the remote
and main units. Repeat this step whenever
you find discrepancies between the
reading shown on the main unit and that
on the respective remote
unit.
DISPLAY TEMPERATURE / HUMIDITY
Display of readings from a remote sensor
or the main unit is a one-step procedure.
The remote sensor channel or the main
unit display is indicated under the readings.
INDOOR UNIT
Press IN/REMOTE until "in" is displayed
under the readings.
REMOTE SENSOR
Press
CHANNEL
until the appropriate
remote sensor channel is displayed under
the readings.
If no readings are received from one
particular channel for more than 15
minutes, blanks "---" will be displayed until
further readings are successfully
searched. Check the remote sensor to
ensure that t is secure and that the correct
channel has been selected. Optionally,
press and hold IN/REMOTE for 2-seconds
to enforce a search.
MAXIMUM / MINIMUM TEMPERATURE
/ HUMIDITY
The maximum and minimum recorded
temperature and humidity readings will
automatically be stored in the memory.
DISPLAY MAXIMUM / MINIMUM
MEMORY
1. Select the channel to be checked.
2. Press
MEM / CLEAR
once to display
the maximum reading and again to
display the minimum reading. The
respective indicators, MAX or MIN will
show.
CLEAR MEMORY
Press and hold
MEM / CLEAR
for
2-seconds. The current temperature and
humidity will be saved as the min / max
values until new records are set.
TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
Slide the

position to select
°

(Fahrenheit) degrees display. The switch
is located on the bottom of the unit.
The switch on the main unit over-
rides any selection you may make for the
remote sensor (THGR238N).

SCAN FOR REMOTE SENSORS
To auto-scan between sensors, press and

button.
SEARCH FOR SENSOR
To search for a sensor, press
IN /
REMOTE
.
If the sensor is still not found,
check the batteries, obstructions, and
remote unit location.
Signals from household devices
such as doorbells, electronic garage doors,
and home security systems may cause
temporary reception failure. This is normal
and does not affect general product
performance. The reception will resume
once the interference ends.
Battery performance, and subsequently
the effective range, may be affected by
freezing temperatures.

To ensure proper reception
between the main unit and the remote
sensor, follow these instructions
carefully.
1. Place both units as close as possible
to each other.
2. Remove the screws on the battery door
of the remote unit.
3. Assign a different channel to each
remote sensor by changing the channel
switch in the battery compartment of the
remote sensor.

Note:
The effective range may be
limited by building materials and the
position of either the main unit or
remote sensors. Try various set-up
arrangements for best result.
Though the sensor is weatherproof, and
is meant for use outside, it should be
placed away from direct sunlight, rain, or
snow.
