INSTALLATION

The Honeywell Weather Forecaster with Wind Speed TE852W operates at

433MHz radio frequency, so no wire installation is required between the main

unit (receiver) and the remote weather sensors (transmitters).

The remote weather sensors include a temperature and humidity sensor and

wind speed sensor. All data measured by these remote sensors is transmitted

to the main unit wirelessly, with the operating range in the open area from 100

feet (30 meters) for wind speed meter up to 328 feet (100 meters) for

temperature and humidity sensor.

Remote wind speed meter must be placed outdoors to measure and transmit a

wind speed data.

Remote thermo-hygrometer(s) can be placed indoors or outdoors, depending

on the area where the temperature and humidity are intended to be

measured. If you intend measuring outdoor temperature and humidity, place

the remote sensor outdoors.

NOTE: It is critical to assemble and power up all remote weather sensors

BEFORE setting up the main unit.

NOTE: It is critical to power up and test communication between the weather

sensors and the main unit BEFORE permanently mounting them outside.

Mounting hardware

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

• We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote weather

sensors and the main unit when temperatures are above 32°F (0°C).

We recommend using lithium batteries for the remote weather sensors

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

• Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries cannot

maintain correct power requirements)

• ALWAYS install batteries in the remote weather sensors before the

main unit

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 weather sensors are easily accessible for

cleaning and maintenance.

We recommend cleaning the remote weather sensors periodically, as the dirt

and debris may affect sensors accuracy.

• 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 weather sensors close to the

main unit

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

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

within the effective transmission range: 328 feet (100 meters) for

temperature/humidity sensors and 100 feet (30 meters) for wind speed

meter. Ideally they should be placed within the line of sight from the

main unit. See placement tips in the user manual for each remote

weather sensor.

• 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 transmitters (remote

weather sensors) 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: 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

• 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.

• 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.

appliances.

OPERATION

K L M

Once the main unit is powered, the display will show all available LCD

segments for a moment.

IMPORTANT:

All of the display functions will be locked, allowing setting your

local altitude and pressure parameters. The locked display will show the

pressure icon and abbreviation “inHg” flashing in the Pressure Window,

indoor temperature and humidity readings in Temperature/Humidity Window,

default time in Clock Window and a default sunset/sunrise time in the

Sunrise/Sunset Window.

If pressure and altitude are not configured during this time, the unit will

self-calibrate in a few minutes and show the default settings for the pressure

and altitude (sea level) and all remote weather sensors readings.

To set the pressure & altitude units and program your altitude, use the main unit

control panel, located on the back.
