GENERAL INFORMATION
Synchronizing the units:

Try changing the channels, as the radio signal may be getting blocked by another
frequency, such as cordless phones and wireless broadband routers.

Remember to set the outside unit up first. On opening the back of the unit you will
see a switch. By moving the switch you can change the channel on the sensor. This
will appear on the display in the top left hand corner (CH1-CH3).

You then need to reset the base unit again. This can be achieved by removing the
batteries for a few seconds. Then set the channel to match the outside unit before
you set anything else up on the base unit. This can be achieved by pressing the
channel button on the reverse of the unit, again this will appear in the little house on
the display in the bottom right hand box.

Positioning of the outdoor sensor:

The unit should be positioned up to 10 metres from the base unit. The unit should be
north facing where possible, as in direct sunlight it will give inaccurate readings. We
would suggest that you don't position it in an exposed area.
