REMOTE SENSOR

This product is shipped with the RTGR328N Thermo/
Hygro Sensor and an optional UVR138 Ultraviolet Sun
Ray Sensor (BAR323HGN only). The main unit can collect
data from up to 6 sensors (5 Thermo/Hygro Sensors
and 1 UV Sensor). Additional sensors sold separately.

The RTGR328N Sensor collects temperature and
humidity readings, and signals from official time-keeping
organizations for the radio-controlled clock.

For information about the UVR138, refer to the UVR138
User Manual.

THERMO / HYGRO SENSOR SETUP (RTGR328N)

1. Open the battery compartment with a small Phillips
screwdriver.

2. Insert the batteries.

3. Set the channel and radio signal format. The
switches are located in the battery compartment.

4. Press RESET. Then set the temperature unit.

For best results:

• Insert the batteries and select the unit, channel,
and radio signal format before you mount the
sensor.

• Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and
moisture.

• Do not place the sensor more than 70 meters
(230 feet) from the main (indoor) unit.

• Position the sensor so that it faces the main
(indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as
doors, walls, and furniture.

• Place the sensor in a location with a clear view
to the sky, away from metallic or electronic
objects.

The transmission range may vary and is subject

NOTE

to the receiving range of the main unit.

You may need to experiment with various locations
to get the best results.

CLOCK

This remote sensor can automatically synchronize
the date and time with official time-keeping
organizations in Frankfurt (Germany) and Rugby
(England). When the sensor is within 1500 km
(932 miles) of a RF signal, the reception icon will
blink during reception.

When the sensor receives the radio-controlled clock
signal and is paired with the main unit, the clock in
the main unit will be automatically updated.

SET RADIO SIGNAL FORMAT

The RADIO SIGNAL FORMAT switch is located inside
the battery compartment. Select EU (DCF) or UK (MSF).
Then, press RESET.

Reception takes 2 – 10 minutes to complete. Once
complete, the icon will stop blinking.

CLOCK AND CALENDAR

This product tracks the time and date based on radio­controlled signals from the RTGR328N remote sensor,
or manual settings that you enter.

RADIO-CONTROLLED CLOCK

The time and date are automatically updated by radio­controlled clock signals from official time-keeping
organizations in Frankfurt (Germany) and Rugby
(England) unless you disable this feature. The signals
are collected by the remote sensor (RTGR328N)
whenever it is within 1500 km (932 miles) of a signal.

Initial reception takes 2 – 10 minutes, and is initiated
when you first setup the unit, and whenever you press
RESET. Once complete, the reception icon will stop
blinking.
