STORM WARNING:
When the air pressure drops continuously within a period of 8 hours, the “Rainy” icon will display; the
“TENDENCY” icon and the downward arrow will flash as an indication of possible storm. Flashing will stop when
the air pressure stays stable for the next 4 hours or when the air pressure starts to increase. The weather icon
might possibly be changed as the air pressure rises.
BACK-LIGHT
The back-light is automatically switched ON when any keys are pressed. The back-light will be switched on for
approximately 2 seconds before automatically switching OFF.
However, if any of the keys are pressed and held
down, then back-light will remain ON constantly until the key is released.
ABOUT THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER
The range of the Outdoor Temperature Transmitter may be affected by the temperature. At cold temperatures
the transmitting distance may be decreased. Please bear this in mind when positioning the transmitter. Also the
batteries may be reduced in power.
CHECKING FOR 433 MHz RECEPTION
If the outdoor temperature data is not being received within three minutes after setting up (the display shows
“- -. - °C” on the outdoor temperature section of the Projection Clock after 4 attempts), please check the
following points:
1.
The distance of the Projection Clock or transmitter should be at least 2 meters away from any interfering
sources such as computer monitors or TV sets.
2.
Avoid placing the temperature transmitter onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames.
3.
Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the 433MHz-signal
frequency may prevent correct signal transmission or reception. Neighbors using electrical devices
operating on the 433MHz-signal frequency can also cause interference.
Note:
When the 433 MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the transmitter or
Projection Clock, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen
accidentally then reset all units (see
“Setting up”
above) otherwise transmission problems may occur.
The transmission range is around 20 - 25 m from the transmitter to the Projection Clock (in open space).
However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. If no reception is possible
despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to be reset (see
“Setting up”
above).
POSITIONING
The Outdoor Temperature Transmitter has a holder and is supplied with screws and double-sided tape for
affixing by either method preferred. Before securing the transmitter to the desired location,
check that the
temperature can be received first.
TO AFFIX BY SCREW, FOLLOW THESE STEPS:
1.
Using the holes in the holder as a guide, mark the holes on the drilling
surface.
2.
Drill the marked area to the required depth.
3.
Screw the holder onto wall and click the transmitter into holder.
