TABLE OF CONTENTS

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the Honeywell Barometric Weather Forecaster. This

device combines precise time keeping with monitoring and displaying the

temperature/humidity data from up to three remote locations.

In this package you will find:

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

• We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote temperature

and humidity sensor and the main unit when temperatures are above

32°F (0°C). We recommend using lithium batteries for the remote

sensor when temperatures are below 32°F (0°C)

• One main unit (receiver) TE653ELW

• One three-channel remote temperature and humidity sensor

(transmitter) TS33C

• One User Manual

Please keep this manual handy as you use your new item. It contains practical

step-by-step instructions, as well as technical specifications and precautions

you should know.

STANDARD PACKAGE CONTENTS

Picture Components

Main Unit (receiver)

Thermo Hygrometer Sensor (transmitter)

• 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 in the battery

compartment

• Remove protective plastic screen from LCD display (if any)

• During an initial setup, place the remote sensor close to the main unit

• After reception is established (all remote readings will appear on the

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

within the effective transmission range of 100 feet (30 meters).Ideally it

should be placed within the line of sight from the main unit.

• Transmission/reception range may be affected by trees, metal

structures and electronic appliances, by surrounding building materials

and the way how the receiver (main unit) and transmitter (remote

sensor) are positioned.

• The main unit must be placed indoors.

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

minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and furniture.

NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing, the batteries in the

outdoor remote sensor may have reduced voltage supply and a shorter

effective range. We recommend using lithium batteries at temperatures of

32°F (0°C) and below.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that remote sensor is easily accessible for cleaning

and maintenance.

We recommend cleaning the remote sensor periodically, as the dirt and debris

may affect sensor accuracy.

D. CHANNEL SWITCH

• Selects the desired channel -1,2 or 3

E. WALL-MOUNT RECESSED OPENING

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

REMOTE TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY SENSOR

FEATURES

• Remote data transmission to the main unit via 433 MHz frequency

• LCD displays temperature, humidity and channel

• Selection of the temperature display in Celsius or Fahrenheit

• Three (3) transmission channels selection

• Case can be wall mounted using built-in hanger

A. LED INDICATOR

• Flashes once when the remote sensor transmits a reading to the main

unit.

• Flashes twice when battery power is low.

B. BATTERY COMPARTMENT

• Holds two AA-size batteries

C. RESET

• Keeps the remote sensor on the wall

F. °C/°F SWITCH

• Selects the temperature display in Fahrenheit or Celsius

NOTE: Install the batteries; select the channel and temperature in °C or °F

before mounting the sensor.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

• Remove the screws from the battery compartment with a small Phillips

screwdriver.

• Set the channel 1 through 3. The switch is located in the battery

compartment. Channel 1 is typically selected if only one remote sensor

is being used.

• Install 2 “AA” size alkaline batteries (not included) matching the

polarities shown in the battery compartment.

• Select the temperature unit in °F or °C by pressing °C/°F switch with a

paper clip or similar tool

• Replace the battery compartment door and secure the screws.

• Secure the remote sensor in the desired location.

MOUNTING

• The remote thermo-hygrometer sensor can be placed on the flat

surface or mounted on the wall in vertical position

• Use the wall mount hardware and screws when mounting the

thermo-hygrometer sensor on the wall

PLACEMENT

• Resets all previous settings

• The remote thermo-hygrometer sensor should be placed in the area

with a free air circulation and sheltered from the direct sunlight and an

extreme weather conditions.

• Ideally, place the thermo-hygrometer sensor above the natural surfaces

(such as a grassy lawn).

• Avoid placing the thermo-hygrometer sensor near sources of heat,

such as chimneys and heating elements.

• Avoid any areas collecting and radiating a heat from the sun, such as

metal, brick or concrete structures, paving, patios and decks.

Weather

• Weather forecast for the next 12 to 24 hour in five large icons:

Sunny, Partly Cloudy, Cloudy, Rainy and Snowy

• Barometric pressure in imperial or metric units

• Altitude adjustment for pressure compensation

• 24 hour barometric pressure history chart

• Indoor/Outdoor Temperature & Humidity in up to 3 remote locations

(additional sensors required)

• The international standard for the valid air temperature measurements

is 4 feet (1.25meters) above the ground.

OPERATION

Immediately after batteries are correctly installed, the remote sensor will start

transmitting a temperature and humidity data to the main unit.

MAIN UNIT

The main unit measures pressure, indoor temperature, humidity, and receives

atomic time data from the US Atomic Clock and all remote sensors. It should be

placed indoors.

FEATURES
