1 Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the Weather station. The following user guide provides step by step instructions for installation, operation and troubleshooting.
2 Getting Started
Note: The power up sequence must be performed in the order shown in this section (insert
batteries in the remote transmitter(s) first, Display Console second).
The HP3000 weather station consists of a display console (receiver), and up to 5 thermo-hygrometers (remote transmitters), based on your order configuration.
2.1 Parts List
* 1,2,3,4, or 5, based on your order configuration.
2.2 Recommend Tools
Hammer and nail for hanging remote thermo-hygrometer transmitter(s).
2.3 Thermo-Hygrometer Sensor Set Up
Note: Do not use rechargeable batteries. We recommend fresh alkaline batteries for outdoor
temperature ranges between -4 °F and 140 °F and fresh lithium batteries for outdoor temperature ranges between -40 °F and 140 °F.

1. Remove the battery door on the back of the transmitter(s) by sliding down the battery door, as
shown in Figure 1 .
Figure 1
2. BEFORE inserting the batteries, locate the dip switches on the inside cover of the lid of the
transmitter.
3. Channel Number: The HP3002 supports up to eight transmitters, and includes three
transmitters. To set each channel number (the default is Channel 1), change Dip Switches 1, 2 and 3, as referenced in Figure 2.
4. Temperature Units of Measure: To change the transmitter display units of measure (°F
vs. °C), change Dip Switch 4, as referenced in Figure 2.
Switch in down position. Switch in up position.

5. Insert two AA batteries.
6. Verify the correct channel number (CH) and temperature units of measure (°F vs. °C) are on
the display, as shown in Figure 3.

7. Close the battery door.
8. Repeat for the additional remote transmitters, verifying each remote is on a different channel.
2.4 Display Console Set Up
1. Move the transmitters(s) about 5 to 10’ away from the display console (if the transmitters are
too close, they may not be received by the display console). With multiple transmitters, make sure all transmitters are powered up and displaying different channels on the display.
2. Connect the console to AC power with the included AC adapter (Figure 4).

2.4.2 Sensor Operation Verification
Verify the humidity sensors match closely with all of the sensors in the same location (about 5 to 10’ apart). The sensors should agree within 10% (the accuracy is ± 5%). Allow about 30 minutes for all sensors to stabilize. The humidity can be adjusted or calibrated later to match each other a known source.
Verify the temperature sensors match closely with all of the sensors in the same location (about 5 to 10’ apart). The sensors should be within 4°F (the accuracy is ± 2°F). Allow about 30 minutes for all sensors to stabilize. The temperature can be adjusted or calibrated later to match each other or a known source.
3 Remote Sensor Installation
If you mount one or more of the sensors outside, it is recommended you mount the sensor in a shaded area. Direct sunlight and radiant heat sources will result in inaccurate temperature readings. Although the sensors are water resistant, it is best to mount in a well-protected area, such as under an eve. Use a screw to affix the remote sensor to the wall, as shown in Figure 6.
Alternately, you can hang the sensor with fishing wire or a string. This insures the sensor does not come into contact with any radiant heat source.

To modify the display parameter, press the up/down and left/right keys to move the blue cursor to a sensor channel number (1-8) and parameter (temperature, dew point, heat index).
Press the key to display this channel and parameter in the selected area on the main screen.
For example, if you wish to display Channel 1 Dew Point in the CH Area 1, highlight the Channel 1 Dewpoint field.
If you wish to toggle both channel 1 temperature and channel 1 dew point, highlight both the Channel 1 Temperature and Channel 1 Dew Point (reference Figure 9),, and the screen will toggle between the channel 1 temperature and dew point on the main screen once every 3 seconds.
4.1.2 Graph Time
To change the Graph Time on the main display, scroll to the Graph Time, and select the
key to change between 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours.
