-The particular sensor is now taught to the system. Insert the batteries in the respective sensor and press its key to teach. Please also read chapter 2.2 for starting up TX 550 US and the operating instructions of the other sensor types. The TX 550 US data is then displayed automatically (after max. 6 minutes) in the corresponding fields of the display - that of the remaining sensors after selecting the memory slot ("sensor" field) in the "OUTDOOR" display field.

Marking the populated memory slots

Memory slots that have already been populated are marked as "USED" behind the memory slot number.

However, this does not indicate whether the respective sensor is actually active. You can identify it only from the missing or outdated data when you select the sensor and from the active reception indicator in the "OUTDOOR" field.

Deleting a sensor assignment

The serial number of a sensor can be deleted from the sensor memory, if re- quired.

-First proceed according to the instructions given under "Logging in"; select the desired sensor and then select the "DEL" option instead of the "ADD" option.

-The "USED" lettering of the sensor number is deleted and the memory slot is thus released again for logging in a sensor.

Tip for initial senor set-up

To ensure proper set-up, please have the sensors and the receiving station 3 to 5 feet apart. Note: The distance should not be less than 3 feet (1 m) apart.
