Instruction Manual

INSTALLATION

Communications between the main unit (receiver) and the

remote sensor (transmitter) is wireless. This allows you to

greater flexibility in choosing the location of remote sensor. The

remote transmits data up to 100 feet (30 meters) over an open,

unobstructed area.

The remote sensor can be located either indoors or outdoors,

allowing you chose where your data is obtained.

NOTE:

• It is critical to power the remote sensor BEFORE setting up the

main unit.

• It is critical to power up and test communication between the

remote sensor and the main unit BEFORE permanently

mounting the remote.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

• We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote sensor

and the main unit. If outdoor temperatures regularly fall below

32°F (0°C), we recommend using lithium batteries.

• Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries

cannot maintain correct power requirements.)

• ALWAYS install batteries in the remote sensor before the

main unit.

• Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity as shown

in the battery compartment.

• Press RESET after each battery change with a paper clip or

similar tool.

• During initial set up, place the remote sensor close to the main

unit.

• After reception is established (remote readings will appear on

the main unit’s display), position the remote sensor and the

main unit within the effective transmission range of up to 100

feet (30 meters).

• The main unit must be placed indoors.

NOTE:

• Avoid pressing any buttons 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.

• Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit (receiver),

minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and furniture.
