started. This takes typically between 3-5 minutes in good conditions. This
time period is an excellent opportunity to locate the transmitter(s) in suitable
location(s) outdoors. In order to ensure sufficient 433 MHz transmission
however, this should under good conditions be no more than 20 - 25 metres
from where the Temperature Station will be finally positioned (see notes on
“
Positioning
” and “
433 MHz Reception check
”).

If after 10 minutes the DCF time has not been received, use the SET key to
manually enter a time initially
.
The clock will automatically attempt each hour
to receive the DCF time. When this is successful, the received time will
override the manually set time. The date is also updated with the received
time (Please refer also to notes on “
Radio controlled time
” and “
Manual
time setting
”).
HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE

HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE
TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER
The transmitter uses 2 x AAA, IEC, LR3, 1.5V
batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please
follow the steps below:
1.
Remove the cover.
2.
Insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity
(see marking).
3.
Replace the battery cover on the unit.
Note:
In the event of changing batteries in any of the units, all units need to be reset by
following the setting up procedures. This is because a random security code is
assigned by the transmitter at start-up and this code must be received and stored
by the Temperature station in the first 3 minutes of power being supplied to it.
BATTERY CHANGE:
It is recommended to replace the batteries in all units on an annual basis to ensure
optimum accuracy of these units.
Please participate in the preservation of the environment. Return
used batteries to an authorised depot.
