INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Multi-Channel In-Out
Thermometer / Hygrometer EMGR819LR (MRC800) with a 433MHz
cable-free thermo-hygro sensor.

Enclosed with this package is one (1) main display unit and one (1)
cable-free remote thermo-hygro sensor unit.

The main unit has an extra-large multifunction 2-line LCD that
shows recordings for indoor and outdoor temperatures and
humidity, maximum and minimum recordings and trend indicators.
The unit supports up to three 433MHz remote thermo-sensors or
thermo-hygro sensors. A variety of additional sensors can be
purchased separately.

In addition to monitoring maximum and minimum temperature
and humidity readings, the unit also has an alarm that can be set to
activate once readings of channel 1 exceed a given variance.

No wire installation is required between the main and remote units.
As the EMGR819LR (MRC800) operates at 433MHz, it can be used
in North America and most places in Continental Europe.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

To ensure proper functioning of the EMGR819LR (MRC800) follow
this setup procedure.

For best operation:

1. Assign different channels to different remote units.

2. Insert batteries for remote units before doing so for the main
unit (see instructions for battery installation).

3. Place the main unit as close as possible next to the remote unit,
reset the main unit after installing batteries. This will ensure
easier synchronization between the transmission and reception
of signals.

4. Position the remote unit and main unit within effective
transmission range, which, in usual circumstances, is up to 100
meters.

Note that the effective range is vastly affected by the building
materials and where the main and remote units are
positioned. Try various set-ups for best result.

Though the remote units are weather proof, they should be placed
away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.
