USER MANUAL

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the Oregon ScientiﬁcTM remote thermohygro sensor (THGR810 / THGN810).

This sensor is compatible with main units that carry this logo

. Keep this manual handy as you use your new product. It

contains practical step-by-step instructions, as well as technical speciﬁcations and warnings you should know about.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

1. LCD display (the THGN810 does not have an LCD screen) : Shows the channel number, temperature and humidity readings, and comfort level

2. LED status indicator

1. RESET hole

2. ºC / ºF switch (THGN810 does not have this switch)

3. CODE switch

4. Battery compartment

GETTING STARTED

BATTERIES

Insert batteries before ﬁrst use, matching the polarity (+ and -) as shown in the battery compartment. For best results, install batteries in the remote sensor before the main unit. Press

RESET after each battery change.

NOTE It is recommended that you use alkaline batteries

with this product for longer performance and consumer grade lithium batteries in below freezing temperatures (0ºC / 32ºF). Do not use rechargeable batteries.

shows on the THGR810 when the batteries are low.

SET UP SENSOR

1. Slide battery door open.

2. Insert the batteries, matching the polarity (+ and -) .

3. Use CODE to select the channel.

4. THGR810 only - Set the temperature unit.

5. Place the sensor near the main unit. Press RESET on the sensor. Then, press the appropriate main unit button (as speciﬁed in the main unit manual) to initiate signal sending between the sensor and the main unit.

6. Close the sensor battery compartment.

7. Secure the sensor in the desired location using the wall mount or table stand.

For best results:

• Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture.

• Do not place the sensor more than 100 m (330 ft) 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.

• Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold winter months as below-freezing temperatures may affect battery performance and signal transmission.

The transmission range may vary depending on many factors. You may need to experiment with various locations to get the best results.

Stand ard Alkaline batt eries cont ain significant amoun ts of water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately -12°C (10°F). Consumer grade Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold for temperature with an estimated freezing range of below -30°C (-22°F).

Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may temporarily reduce the effective range between the sensor and the base station. If the unit’s performance fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume proper functioning as the temperature rises to within the normal temperature range (i.e. no permanent damage will occur to the unit due to low temperatures).

SET CHANNEL

Set the channel by adjusting the CODE switch to one of the following settings.

PRECAUTIONS

This product is engineered to give you years of satisfactory service if you handle it carefully. Here are a few precautions:

• Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust, temperature or humidity, which may result in malfunction, shorter electronic life span, damaged battery and distorted parts.

• Do not immerse the unit in water. If you spill liquid over it, dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.

• Do not clean the unit with abrasive or corrosive materials.

• Do not tamper with the unit’s internal components. Doing so will invalidate the warranty on the unit and may cause unnecessary damage. The unit contains no user-serviceable parts.

• Only use fresh batteries as speciﬁed in the user’s instructions. Do not mix new and old batteries.

• Due to printing limitations, the displays shown in this manual may differ from the actual display.

• The contents of this manual may not be reproduced without the permission of the manufacturer.

• Do not dispose this product as unsorted municipal waste. Collection of such waste separately for special treatment is necessary.

NOTE The technical speciﬁcations for this product and the

contents of the user manual are subject to change without notice.
