with Time
Model: CA85152 | Instruction Manual
INTRODUCTION
Temperature at a glance! Everything is at your fingertips with this
Wireless Thermometer: Indoor/Outdoor temperature with MIN/MAX
readings in Fahrenheit or Celsius, outdoor temperature trend arrow,
and manual set time.
SETUP INSTRUCTIONS STEP BY STEP
STEP 1:
Remove battery cover from the Wireless
Thermometer.
Insert 2 NEW AA batteries (not included) into
the back of the Wireless Thermometer.
Observe the correct polarity (see marking
inside the battery compartment).
The Wireless Thermometer will light up and
show, indoor temperature, and time (12:00).
STEP 2:
Ensure that the transmitter is within 10 feet of the
Wireless Thermometer.
Remove battery cover from TX141-B transmitter:
Slide the battery cover down and lift off the front.
Insert 2 NEW AA batteries into the transmitter.
Observe the correct polarity.
Within 3 minutes the Wireless Thermometer will show
readings in the outdoor temperature area on the LCD.
Note: Allow the Wireless Thermometer and the
transmitter to stay within 10 feet of each other for the first 15
minutes of set up.
Do Not Mix Old and New Batteries
Do Not Mix Alkaline, Standard, Lithium or Rechargeable
Batteries
TRANSMITTER SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR
After the batteries are inserted, the Wireless Thermometer will
search for the outdoor temperature transmitter for 3 minutes.
The antenna symbol will flash during reception, and
temperature display will be dashes “---“.
No antenna symbol will show during RF (radio frequency)
synchronization.
If synchronization fails once, the antenna will lose one bar.
If synchronization fails twice, the antenna will lose two bars.
If RF (radio frequency) reception fails five times, the antenna
symbol will be shown as .
The antenna will show full display with successful
RF (radio frequency) reception.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
If the Wireless Thermometer does not display the outdoor
temperature after 3 minutes, remove the batteries from both units
and start the setup process again.
If the outdoor temperature does not show up after a second
attempt, please slide open the battery cover of the outdoor
transmitter to reveal the TX button. Push down on the TX button
for 3 seconds to send a wireless signal to the Wireless
Thermometer.
For optimal 433 MHz signal reception, the outdoor transmitter
should be placed within 200 feet (60 meters) from the indoor
Wireless Thermometer.
Note: Use Alkaline batteries
(or Lithium for temperatures below -28.8°C / -20°F).
SET TIME
The SET/°F/°C button moves through the program menu. The
MIN/MAX/+ button changes the value.
12/24-HOUR TIME: Hold the SET/°F/°C button for 2 seconds.
12H will flash. Press and release the MIN/MAX/+ button to select

temperature
readout.
MAXIMUM/MINIMUM TEMPERATURE READINGS
The Wireless Thermometer: will show the daily minimum and
maximum temperatures each day starting at midnight (12:00 AM).
The temperature station automatically resets the min/max
temperatures at midnight (12:00 AM).
VIEW MINIMUM: Press MAX/MIN button to show the minimum
temperature record.
RESET MINIMUM: With the minimum temperatures displayed,
press and hold the MAX/MIN key for 2 seconds to manually clear the
MIN records in memory.
VIEW MAXIMUM: Press MAX/MIN key again, to show the
maximum temperature records. In maximum memory display mode,
RESET MINIMUM: With the maximum temperatures displayed,
press and hold the MAX/MIN key for 2 seconds to manually clear the
MAX records in memory.
TEMPERATURE TREND ICONS
The outdoor temperature trend indicators will update every 30
minutes or less. These trends represent temperature changes over
the past three hours.
Temperature rising more than 1°C/ 2°F in the past three
hours
Temperature has not changed more than 1°C/ 2°F in the
past three hours.
Temperature falling more than 1°C/ 2°F in the past three
hours
The temperature trend indicators are shown next to the indoor
temperature and outdoor temperature readings.
POSITIONING THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER
The remote temperature transmitter should be mounted vertically to
avoid damage. Place both units in the desired shaded locations, and
wait approximately 1-hour before permanently mounting the
transmitter to ensure that there is proper reception. The outdoor
temperature transmitter is water resistant, not waterproof and should
not be placed anywhere it will become submerged in water or
subject to standing water or snow.
WALL MOUNT
Choose a location for the transmitter that is within range of the
Wireless Thermometer and under an overhang for accuracy.
Option 1:
Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall
leaving approximately ½ of an inch (12.7mm)
extended.
Place the transmitter onto the screw, using the
hanging hole on the backside.
Gently pull the transmitter down to lock the screw into
place.
Option 2:
Insert the mounting screw (not included) through the front of the
transmitter and into the wall.
Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten).
To achieve a true temperature reading, mount where direct
sunlight cannot reach the outdoor transmitter. Mount the outdoor
transmitter on a North-facing wall or in any well shaded area.
Under an eave or deck rail work well. The maximum transmitting
range in open air is over 200-feet (60 meters). Obstacles such as
walls, windows, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects can
reduce the range. Place the transmitter at least 6 feet in the air to
improve signal transmission.
