TEMPERATURE ALARM (LIMITING VALUES)
Limiting values for internal and external temperatures can be set. If a limiting value is exceeded or the temperature falls below a set value a five- second alarm is triggered.

Set limiting values:
To set the limiting value press and hold down the P▼ key on the back of the base station until the display (OF/ON) starts to flash. Press this key once again to select cither ON or OF (Alarm on and Alarm off). Confirm your selection with the MEM key.Initially the display for the internal temperature begins to flash. Re-press the P▼ key to change between the display of external sensor Channel 1 and the internal display.
Please note that a temperature alarm can only be set for external sensor Channel 1.
Confirm your selection with the MEM key. Using the P▼ key you can set the value, which if exceeded will trigger the alarm. Whilst setting the value the arrow pointing upwards flashes. Confirm the setting by pressing the MEM key.You can then set the value at which the alarm will trigger if the temperature falls below a set point. This also occurs with the P▼ key. Whilst setting the value the arrow pointing downwards flashes. Confirm with the MEM key.

Note: Limiting values for internal and external sensors respectively must be set separately!
If the set temperature is exceeded or the temperature falls below a set value then a signal tone sounds five times. The alarm can be terminated prematurely by pressing the MEM key. The temperature display flashes and only stops flashing if the temperature is outside the alarm range.

Deactivate limiting values:
To deactivate all limiting values press and hold down the P▼ key to access the ON/OF mode. Now press the same key until OF appears in the display. Confirming four times with the MEM key deactivates all alarms.

SETTING UP THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE/MOISTURE SENSOR UNIT

Insert the batteries into the sensor unit. Press the CHANNEL OUT button on the home receiver unit and then press the „TX“ button on the sensor unit to transmit the temperature to the base station so that the base station can receive the respective channel. The base station will beep after the signal is received. The „TX“ button is behind the rear battery cover – unscrew it to open.
If you have more than one outdoor transmitter (maximum 3), select channels CH1, CH2 or CH3 for each sensor to transmit on different channels before inserting the batteries. The channel switch is behind the rear battery cover – unscrew it to open.

ATTENTIVE CARE BEAUTIFUL PLANTS

The plant monitor is a measuring instrument that tells you about the level of soil moisture or dryness in the area of the root or in the centre of the pot It therefore helps with decision making when watering.Naturally enough the frequency and amount of watering depends on the type of room plant. Observe the instructions for care in specialist books and on information labels when purchasing plants. To assist in watering plants we have created four separate groups.

Group 4 = Plants that like plenty of moisture

• This group includes: galingale, eton crop, bamboos, etc.
• The care instructions for these plants contain information such as „keep moist“, „stand in sau-cer containing water“, „place pot in water“, etc.
• The soil moisture indicator for plants in this group should always indicate 2, 3 or 4 bars. The display should never fall to one bar.

Group 3 = Plants that like moisture

• This group includes: hydrangeas, azaleas, oleanders, rubber plants (Ficus), banana plants, boxwood, ferns, palms, philodendrons, etc.
• The care instructions for these plants contain information such as „water copiously“, „keep  moist“ etc.
  The soil moisture indicator for plants in this group should always indicate 2 or 3 bars. The display may also fall temporarily to one bar.

Group 2 = Plants that like average amounts of moisture

• This group includes: small citrus trees, zantedeschia, African violet, poinsettia, orchids, bego-nias, diverse spice plants
• The care instructions for these plants contain information such as „keep moderately moist“, „in winter keep almost dry“, etc.
• The soil moisture indicator for plants in this group should always indicate 1 or 2 bars.

Group 1 = Plants that like dry conditions

• This group includes: Cacti, Lithops, aloe, etc.
• The care instructions for these plants contain information such as „only water when soil is dry“, „slightly damp“, „keep dry in winter“, etc.
  The soil moisture indicator for plants in this group should always indicate 1 bar, which should only be exceeded on watering. The plant soil may be dry for a few days.

Note:

• For group 1 plants the alarm signal should be switched off otherwise it will sound all the time.
• Note that the plant sensors are intended only for soil, not for hydro-culture or clay granules.
• When watering take into account the location of the plants: The darker and cooler the locati-on, the less water the plant requires.
• Of course, the plant pots used also determine the amount of watering required. As clay pots are very porous the water required for them is greater than for metal or plastic pots.
• Note that plants that have not been cared for may in certain circumstances have difficulty in responding to a new, correct care regime.

We cannot be held liable for damage caused by treatment that is not appropriate for the respective plant group.

DISPLAy ON PLANT SENSOR/SOIL MOISTURE SENSOR

The plant sensor transmits on a frequency of 433 MHz. Under optimal conditions in an open space the transmission range from the plant sensor to the base station can be up to 30m. The transmission range is reduced by doors, windows and walls. When you have selected a channel and inserted a battery (channel 1 for the first plant sensor, for further plant sensors select channcl 2 and 3, etc), the plant sensor begins with the measurement and transmission of the moisture values. In the plant sensor display the moisture level is shown in the form of a bar diagram in steps from 1= DRY to 4 = WET (very damp).

In the event that transmission does not occur automatically press the ALARM ON/OFF key on the plant sensor. The red LED flashes momentarily.

For the plant sensor with channcl 1 the base station display indicates the channel by 1. For plant sensors for which you have selected channels 2 or 3 the base station display indicates channel 2 or 3 respectively.
Without disturbing the leaves place the plant sensor in the soil around the plant, so that the housing of the plant sensor can be clearly seen.When watering ensure that only the soil is moistened, not the plant sensor.
The plant sensor requires 15-30 minutes to determine the soil moisture level. If the plant sensor detects soil that is too dry (1 bar), an alarm tone sounds.

SWITCH SIGNAL TONE ON OR OFF
Note that the signal tone is factory activated. This means that the signal tone sounds as soon as the batteries are inserted. You can turn off this signal tone by pressing and holding down (for approx. five seconds) the ALARM ON/OFF key. The red LED on the front panel flashes twice briefly. To re-switch on the acoustic alarm press and hold down the ALARM ON/OFF for five seconds. A short alarm tone sounds twice, the red LED flashes twice. Every time the plant sensor sends a signal to the base station the red LED flashes

OVERVIEW OF ALL PLANT SENSORS ON THE BASE STATION

In the display of the base station indication of the moisture level appears in the form of a bar diagram in steps from 1= DRY to 4 = WET (very damp) for all registered plant sensors. If a plant sensor detects earth that is too dry this is shown visually by a flashing bar. If the plant sensor registers earth that is sufficiently damp after watering, this is shown by 2, 3 or 4 bars that are no longer flashing.

DETAILED VIEW OF A PLANT SENSOR ON THE DISPLAy OF THE BASE STATION
On the base station there is a detailed view of each plant sensor. Press the CH PLANT key to switch between the individual plant sensors.Again the display shows the bar diagram in steps of 1= DRY to 4 = WET (very damp). Again the soil characteristics are shown on the base station by four flower symbols.

WET: 4 (Flower in the home unit will show flashing sweat)
MED: 3 (Flower shows smiling face)
MED: 2 (Flower shows smiling face)
DRy: 1 (Flower shrink and water icon flash)

ALARM (ACOUSTIC AND VISUAL) ON THE DISPLAy OF THE BASE STATION
The base station also indicates earth that is too dry (= 1 bar) with two signal tones/minute, and the 1 (((o))) symbol flashes (visual alarm). To deactivate this signal tone for all plant sensors, press the (((o))). key briefly. The (((o))) symbol disappears. To re-activate this acoustic alarm for all plant sensors, press the (((o))) key briefly. The (((o))) symbol appears on the display.
Note that the signal tone is factory activated.

MANUAL AND AUTOMATIC CHANGING OF THE PLANT SENSOR CHANNEL INDICATION ON THE BASE STATION DISPLAy
If you have registered two to five plant sensors, press the CH PLANT key to change from one channel to the next. If the display shows a curved arrow then the channels are automatically shown one after the other.

REGISTRATION OTHERS SENSOR PLANT
There are only 2 sensors plant provided. For an additional plant sensor use the channel selector to select a free channel (1 5) on which each plant sensor will transmit.
To re-register the plant sensor on the base station, press the CHANNEL PLANT button on the main receiver unit and than the ALARM ON/OFF button on the back of the plant sensor in order to send the transmission signal manually.
