4.Close the battery compartment.

5.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 30 m (100 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.

Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant amounts of water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately -12°C (10°F). Disposable 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).

GETTING STARTED

SETTING UP THE CLOCK

Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity (+ and -). RESET after each battery change.

indicates main unit batteries are low.

NOTE Do not use rechargeable batteries. We recommend that you use alkaline batteries with this product for longer usage and lithium batteries in temperatures below freezing.

REMOTE SENSOR

The sensor collects temperature readings approx. every 40 seconds and sends them to the main unit. The main unit can collect data from up to 3 sensors.

To set up the sensor:

1.Slide open the battery door.

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

3.Select a channel. Make sure you use a different channel for each sensor.

To search for a sensor:

Simultaneously, press and hold MEM and CHANNEL for 2 seconds.

NOTE If the sensor is still not found, check the batteries, obstructions, and remote unit location.

CLOCK RECEPTION

This product is designed to synchronize its date and time automatically once it is within range of the WWVB-60 signal from the atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.

The clock collects the radio signals whenever it is within 1500 km (932 miles) of a signal.

NOTE Initial reception takes 2-10 minutes for first set up or when RESET is pressed. Once complete, the reception icon will stop blinking. If the signal is weak, it can take up to 24 hours to get a valid signal.

RECEPTION SIGNAL
