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.

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.

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.
WIND SPEED METER
FEATURES

WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) radio station
(WWVB) is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado. It transmits an exact time signal
continuously throughout the most of the continental United States at 60 KHz
frequency. The Atomic Time Clock in your weather station can receive this
WWVB signal through the internal antenna from up to 2,000 miles away. Due to
the nature of the Earth’s ionosphere, reception can be limited during the
daylight hours. The radio controlled clock will search for an alternate station
that receives the atomic time signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder,
Colorado.
The WWVB tower icon on the unit’s display will flash indicating a radio signal
reception from the WWVB station. If the tower icon is not fully lit, or if the time
and date are not set automatically, please consider the following:
During night-time hours, atmospheric disturbances are typically less
severe and radio signal reception may improve. A single daily reception
is sufficient enough to keep the clock accuracy within 1 second.
Make sure the unit is positioned at 8 feet (2 meters) distance from any
interference source such as a TV, computer monitor, microwave, etc.
Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office buildings, the
received signal may be weakened. Always place the Projection Clock
near the window for better reception.
Once the atomic time signal is received, the date and time will be set
automatically, and the [
] icon will appear.
After the clock is set manually, place the main unit by the window for the better
reception. The atomic clock receiver is programmed that it will continue to
search for the atomic time signal daily for every hour between 1:00 am and
4:30 am.
Once the time signal has been successfully received, the time and date will be
updated automatically.
To enable or disable the atomic time receiver:
Press and hold UP - if atomic time reception is activated, a triangular

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY WINDOW
The Weather Forecaster supports up to 5 remote thermo-hygrometers,
corresponding to a separate channel of the temperature and relative humidity
display. The temperature can be displayed in Celsius (ºC) or Fahrenheit (ºF).
The main unit carries the temperature and humidity sensor and uses this data
to calculate an indoors comfort level - Wet, Comfort or Dry.
A temperature alert function is available for all channels. It can be programmed
to sound if the channel temperature exceeds or falls below the pre-set upper
and lower limits.
COMFORT LEVEL INDICATION
The main unit is capable of detecting and displaying the current indoor comfort
levels of surrounding environment. The comfort level based on the combination
of the current indoor temperature and humidity readings. The following comfort
