or Fahrenheit (°F) degree

• Outdoor humidity reading in %RH

• Can receive up to three outdoor transmitters

• Minimum and Maximum records of indoor temperature,

outdoor temperature and outdoor humidity

The Outdoor Thermo-Hygro Transmitter

SETUP:

When one transmitter is used

1. First, insert the batteries into the transmitter (see “How

2. Within 2 minutes of powering up the transmitter, insert

• Remote transmission of outdoor

temperature and humidity to Temperature Station by 868 MHz signals

• Shower proof casing

• Wall mounting stand

to install and replace batteries in the Thermo-hygro transmitter” below).

the batteries into the Temperature Station (see “How to install and replace batteries in the Temperature Station” below). Once the batteries are in place, all

segments of the LCD will light up briefly. The indoor temperature and the time as 0:00 will then be displayed. If they are not shown in LCD after 60

seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them. Once the indoor data is displayed, user may proceed to the next step.

3. After the batteries are inserted, the Temperature Station will start receiving data signal from the transmitter. The outdoor temperature and humidity should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and the setup restarted from step 1.

4. In order to ensure an optimal 868 MHz transmission, in good conditions, the distance between the Temperature Station and the transmitter should not be no more than 100 meters (see notes on “Positioning” and “868 MHz Reception”).

When more than one transmitter is used

1. User shall remove all the batteries from the Temperature

Station and the transmitter and wait 60 seconds (if setup has been done with one transmitter before).

2. Insert the batteries into the first transmitter.

3. Within 2 minutes of powering up the first transmitter,

insert the batteries into the Temperature Station. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. The indoor temperature and the tim e as 0:00 will then be displayed. If they are not shown in LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them.

4. The outdoor temperature and humidity from the first

transmitter (channel 1) should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. Also, the signal reception icon will be displayed. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and the setup restarted from step 1.

5. Insert the batteries to the second transmitter as soon as

the outdoor temperature and humidity readings from the first transmitter are displayed on the Temperature Station.

Note: User shall insert the batteries into the second transmitter within 30 seconds of reception of the first transmitter.

6. The outdoor temperature and humidity from the second

transmitter and the "channel 2" icon should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. If this does not happen after 2 minute, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and the setup restarted from step 1.

7. Insert the batteries into the third transmitter as soon as

the "channel 2" icon and outdoor data are displa yed on the Temperature Station. Within 2 minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third transmitter will then be displayed and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the third transmitter is successfully recognized. If this is not happen, user shall restart the setup from step 1.

Note: User shall insert the batteries into the third transmitter within 30 seconds of reception of the second transmitter.

8. In order to ensure an optimal 868 MHz tr ansmission, in

good conditions, the distance between the Temperatu re Station and the transmitter should not be no more than 100 meters (see notes on “Positioning” and “868 MHz

Reception”).
