Operation Manual

POWER UP SYNCHRONIZATION
The base unit will search for the RF signal from the rain collector for 6 minutes after reset or after batteries are
inserted. When the temperature display on the main unit shows the OUT temperature, synchronization between
the base unit and remote unit is complete.
The top, left of the base unit display will show the icon to indicate signal transmission. If the OUT
temperature does not show on the display within 6 minutes after reset, press the RE-SYNC button and the main
unit will search for the RF signal for another 6 minutes. If the base unit still fails to show the out temperature,
refer to the LOSING SYNCHRONIZATION section.
Locating the Base Unit and Remote Sensor
•Choose a suitable place for the base unit and remote outdoor sensor, within the transmission distance.
•Place the base unit near a window, but away from direct sunlight or sources of heat or air conditioning to  
 ensure accurate temperature readings.
•The location you choose is critical for maximizing the transmission range. The remote sensor is designed to 
 transmit unimpeded 80 to 100 ft. Transmitting through walls, metal doors and metal framed windows may  
 reduce the transmission range. To optimize the transmission distance, the remote unit should be positioned in 
 a location that minimizes these obstructions. Other interference from electrical sources such as home security 
 systems, wireless doorbells and wireless home entertainment equipment may interrupt the transmission signal 
 temporarily.
Notes:
•The outdoor rain collector must be placed on a level, horizontal surface for accurate rainfall measurement.
•Warning: Ice will affect the accuracy of rainfall readings and will damage the internal mechanism of the rain
collector. In temperatures below freezing the collector can remain outdoors for temperature data transmission,
but the unit must be placed in a protected area to prevent ice damage.
INDOOR AND OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE
•The indoor temperature is shown after activation until the first outdoor temperature signal is received. The 
 display will then change to the outdoor temperature reading.
•Press the IN-OUT TEMP button to toggle between indoor and outdoor temperature.
•To activate Auto Scroll mode, press and hold the IN-OUT TEMP button for 3-4 seconds. Double curved  
 arrows will show at the top of the LCD display and the unit will automatically toggle between indoor and  
 outdoor temperature. Press and hold the IN-OUT TEMP button for 3-4 seconds to de-activate Auto-Scroll 
 mode.
•The temperature trend arrow which is located directly above the temperature reading will indicate the trend 
 of indoor and outdoor temperatures during the last three minutes.
TEMPERATURE ALERT
When either the indoor or outdoor temperature exceeds the upper or lower pre-set limits, the alarm will sound
for five seconds. It will be accompanied by a flashing alert icon and flashing arrow to show that the temperature
has reached the upper or lower limit. The audible alert will sound for five seconds every minute.
Setting the Temperature Alert:
•When setting the alert temperatures, the display will change in increments of 1.8°F or 1.0°C.
•Press and hold the ALERT button until the alert icon, up arrow and IN icon are shown on the display and the 
 alert temperature is flashing
•Press + or - to set the desired indoor alert temperature upper limit
•Press ALERT and the down arrow will be displayed. Press + or - to set the desired indoor alert temperature 
 lower limit
