When more than one transmitter is used

1.User shall remove all the batteries from the Temperature Station and transmitters and wait 60 seconds if setting has been done with one transmitter first.

2.Insert the batteries to the first transmitter.

3.Within 30 seconds of powering up the first transmitter, insert the batteries to the Temperature Station. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Following time as 12:00 will be displayed. If the time is not shown in LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them.

4.The outdoor temperature from the first transmitter (channel 1) should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. Also, the signal reception icon will be displayed. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1.

5.Insert the batteries to the second transmitter as soon as the outdoor temperature readings from the first transmitter are displayed on the Temperature Station.

Note: User shall insert the batteries into the second transmitter within 10 seconds of reception of the first transmitter.

SETTING UP:

When one transmitter is used:

1.First, insert the batteries into the transmitter (see “How to install and replace batteries in the Temperature transmitter” below).

2.Within 30 seconds of powering up the transmitter, insert the batteries to the Temperature Station (see “How to install and replace batteries in the Temperature Station” below). Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Then the indoor temperature and the time as 12:00 will be displayed. If they are not shown on LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them. Once the indoor data is displayed, user may proceed to the next step.

3.After the batteries are inserted, the Temperature Station will start receiving data signal from the transmitter.

4.The outdoor temperature should be displayed on the Temperature Station. Also, the signal reception icon will be displayed. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1.

5.In order to ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission, the final position between the Temperature Station and the transmitter should not be more than 330 feet / 100 meters (see notes on “Positioning” and “915 MHz Reception”).

6.Batteries are the #1 warranty issue we see. Please be sure you are using name brand plain alkaline batteries dated at least 7 years in advance or testing to 1.48 on a voltmeter that reads in numbers.

6.The outdoor temperature from the second transmitter and the "channel 2" icon should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. If this does not happen after 2 minute, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and reset from step 1.

7.Insert the batteries to the third transmitter as soon as the "channel 2" icon and outdoor temperature data is displayed on the Temperature Station. Then within 2 minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third transmitter will be displayed and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the third transmitter is successfully received. If this is not happen, user shall restart the setting up from step 1.

Note: User shall insert the batteries into the third transmitter within 10 seconds of reception of the second transmitter.

8.In order to ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission there should be no more than 330 feet (100 meters) between the final position of the Temperature Station and the transmitter (see notes on “Mounting” and “915 MHz Reception”).

Note:

If the signal reception is not successful on the first frequency (915MHz) for 40 seconds, the frequency is changed to 920MHz and the learning is tried another 40 seconds. If still not
