Problem

 

Possible Solution

 

 

 

 

 

• Relocate the display unit and/or the 3-in-1 sensor.

 

 

 

 

 

The units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.

 

 

 

 

 

• Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet (.9 m)

 

 

 

 

 

away from electronics that may interfere with the wireless

 

 

 

 

 

communication (such as TVs, microwaves, computers, etc).

 

 

 

 

 

• Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in

sensor when temperature is below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do not use

heavy duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It may take

up to 20 minutes for display unit and sensor to synchronize

 

 

 

 

no bars

after batteries are replaced.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Synchronize the units:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.

Bring both the sensor and display unit indoors and

 

 

 

 

 

 

remove at least one battery from each.

 

 

 

 

 

2.

Make sure the A-B-C switch on both units match.

 

 

 

 

 

3.

Reinstall the battery in the outdoor sensor.

 

 

 

 

 

4.

Reinstall battery into the display unit.

 

 

 

 

 

5.

Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other for

 

 

 

 

 

 

about 20 minutes to gain a strong connection.

 

Flashing of the outdoor temperature may be an indication of

• Allow unit to run continuously for 33 days. Battery removal

 

or resetting the display unit will restart Learning Mode.
