Wireless remote

hygrometer) not
reporting in to
console.
If any of the sensor communication is lost, dashes (-
-.-) will be displayed on the screen. To reacquire the
signal, press and hold the
C
button for 3
seconds, and the remote search icon will be
constantly displayed. Once the signal is reacquired,
the remote search icon will turn off, and the
current values will be displayed.
The maximum line of sight communication range is
100 meters and 30 meters under most conditions.
Move the sensor assembly closer to the display
console.
If the sensor assembly is too close (less than 1
meter), move the sensor assembly away from the
display console.
Make sure the remote sensor LCD display is
working and the transmitter light is flashing once per
60 seconds.
Install a fresh set of batteries in the remote thermo-
hygrometer. For cold weather environments, install
lithium batteries.
