GETTING STARTED

SENSOR SET UP

1. Slide open the battery door.
2. Slide channel switch to select a channel (1, 2, 3). Ensure you use a different channel for each sensor.
3. Insert the batteries, matching the polarities (+ / -). See FIG 2.
4. Press RESET after each battery change.
5. Close the battery door.
   NOTE Install batteries in the remote sensor before the main unit.
6. Initiate a sensor search on the main unit to start receiving temperature / humidity data from the sensor.
   
7. 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 meters (100 feet) 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.

TIP The transmission range may vary depending on many factors. You may need to experiment with various locations to get the best results.

NOTE Use alkaline batteries for longer usage and consumer grade lithium batteries in temperatures below freezing.

CHANGING CHANNELS

To change channels once channel has been assigned:

1. Slide channel switch to desired channel.
2. Press RESET.
3. Initiate a sensor search on the main unit to start receiving temperature / humidity data from the sensor.

RESET

Press RESET to return the unit to the default settings.
