3. PUTTING INTO OPERATION

The communication between the main unit (receiver) and the remote sensor (transmitter)

is wireless, thus simplifying the installation. The remote temperature sensor transmits data

to the main unit, with an operating range of up to 100 feet (30 meters) in opened area.

The remote temperature sensor can be placed indoors or outdoors, depending on the area

where the temperature is intended to be measured. If you intend to measure outdoor

conditions, place the remote sensor outdoors.

Start-up the transmitter-receiver communication:

• It is important to power-up the remote sensor BEFORE powering-up the main unit.

Immediately after batteries are installed, the remote sensor will start transmitting a

temperature data to the main unit.

• It is strongly recommended to power up and test communication between the remote

sensor and the main unit BEFORE permanently mounting the sensor outside.

• During initial set up, place the remote sensor within a range of 1m to the main unit in the

same room, both receiver and transmitter far from any other electric product.

• After reception is established (remote readings will appear on the main unit’s display),

position the remote sensor and the main unit within the maximum transmission range of

up to 30 meters (100 feet).

NOTE:

• Avoid pressing any button on the main unit before the remote readings are displayed.

• Transmission or reception range may be affected by trees, metal structures, electronic

appliances, surrounding building materials and how the main unit and transmitter are

positioned.

Placement of sensor and main unit • Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit (receiver), minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and furniture. • Though the remote sensors are weather-resistant, they should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow. The optimal location for the outdoor sensor is under the eaves on the north side of a building with free air circulation.
