Before you begin
We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote weather sensors and the
main unit when temperatures are above 32°F (0°C). We recommend using
lithium batteries for the remote weather sensors when temperatures are below
32°F (0°C).
Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries cannot maintain
correct power requirements).
ALWAYS install batteries in the remote weather sensors before the main unit.
Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in the battery compartment
Remove protective plastic screen from LCD display (if any).
During an initial setup, place the main unit close to the remote weather sensors.
After reception is established (all of the remote readings will appear on the main
unit’s display), position the remote sensors and the main unit within the effective
transmission range of up to 328 feet (100 meters). Ideally they should be placed
within the line of sight of the main unit. See placement tips in the user manual
for each remote weather sensor separately.
Transmission range may be affected by trees, metal structures and electronic
appliances.
The main unit must be placed indoors.
The effective operating range may be influenced by the surrounding building
materials and how the receiver (main unit) and transmitters (weather sensors)
are positioned.
Place the remote weather sensors so that they face the main unit (receiver),
minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture.
Note: When the temperature falls below freezing, the batteries in the outdoor
remote weather sensors may have reduced voltage supply and a shorter effective
range. We recommend using lithium batteries at temperatures of 32°F (0°C) and
below.
IMPORTANT
: Make sure that the remote weather sensors are easily accessible for
cleaning and maintenance.
We recommend cleaning the remote weather sensors periodically, as the dirt and debris
may affect sensors accuracy.
