BEFORE YOU START

IMPORTANT!

1. Insert batteries for remote units before doing so for the main unit.
2. Place the main unit as close as possible to the remote unit.
3. Position the remote unit and main unit within the effective transmission range.

When changing batteries always change batteries in the main unit as well as all remote units and replace them in the correct order, so the remote connection can be re-established. If batteries are exchanged in only one of the devices (i.e. the remote sensor) the signal can’t be received or can’t be received correctly.

Note, that the effective range is vastly affected by building materials and position of the main and remote units. Due to external influences (various RC devices and other sources of interference), the maximum distance can be greatly reduced. In such cases we suggest to position the main unit and the outdoor sensorat other places. Sometimes all it takes is a relocation of one of these components of a few inches!

Though the remote unit is weather proof, it should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.

POWER SUPPLY

Main unit (Weather station)

1. Remove the battery compartment cover (20).
2. Install 3 batteries (AAA size 1.5V) strictly according to the polarities shown.
3. Reinsert the battery compartment cover.

4. Reinsert the battery compartment cover.

Low battery indication
When batteries need to be replaced the respective low battery indicator for the main unit (3) or the outdoor sensor (9) will be shown on the display of the main unit.

USING TABLE STAND OR WALL MOUNTING
The main unit can be placed on a flat surface (e.g. table) with the fold-out stand (18).
The main unit and the outdoor sensor can be mounted on walls using the recessed wall mount hanger (17, 23).

OPERATION

Receiving measurements
Once batteries are installed to the outdoor sensor, it will start transmitting temperature readings at roughly 60 second intervals. As soon as batteries are installed in the main unit it will start searching for a signal from the outdoor sensor for about 3-4 minutes. Upon successful reception of the signal, the outdoor temperature will be displayed on the main unit. The main unit will automatically update its readings at about 60 second intervals.

NOTE! When the outdoor temperature is above or below the measurement range, the display will show HHH (high) or LLL (low).

Manual time setting and other settings
To make manual settings, proceed as follows:

1. In normal time mode press the CF/SET touch control (12b) for approx. 3 seconds to enter the settings mode. The value to be set is flashing. Value settings order: hours > minutes > 12/24 hours > On/Off
2. Press MEM/〉 or CH/ to set the hours for the current time.
3. Press CF/SET to switch to the next setting.
4. Press MEM/ or CH/ to set minutes for the current time.
5. Press CF/SET to switch to the next setting.
6. Press MEM/ or CH/ to select 12 or 24 hours time mode.
7. Press CF/SET to switch to the next setting.
8. Press MEM/ or CH/ to switch between ON or OF to enable or disable 24 hour measurement data storage.
9. Press CF/SET to save and exit settings mode. If there is no operation for 20 seconds, the existing setting will be saved and the device returns to normal display mode.

NOTE! When choosing ON for 24 hour measurement data storage all stored MIN/MAX values for temperature and humidity will be deleted daily at 0:00h!

When choosing OFF the data will be stored indefinitely until a battery change is required.

Temperature and humidity

1. Once the batteries are installed the main unit will start displaying the interior measurement information. The main unit will display the information from the outdoor sensor for the first time approximately 3-4 minutes after the power supply was established.
2. Press CF/SET touch control (12b) to switch screen display between °C or °F. Screen display will change for outdoor temperature as well as for indoor temperature.

Indoor humidity indicator
The indoor humidity indicator (6) displays the following conditions:

NOTE! Read chapter “Ventilation indicator” for more information.

Temperature and humidity MAX/MIN records

1. Press the touch control MEM/ (12a) several times to switch between the values for current, minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) temperature and humidity. The display will change for the indoor temperature as well as for the outdoor temperature.

2. The MIN/MAX temperature and humidity values will be recorded automatically.
   NOTE! Depending on the selected type for measurement data storage the MIN/MAX values will be saved for 24 hours or until batteries need to be changed (Read chapter “Manual time setting and other settings”).

3. Press MEM/ touch control for approx. 3 seconds to delete MIN/MAX values manually.

Atmospheric change
The device uses the measurement data to calculate the absolute humidity.
The icons indicate how the ventilation would affect the indoor climate:

NOTE! Read chapter “Ventilation indicator” for more information.

Ventilation indicator
The ventilation indicator (8) relies on the information of the atmospheric change (7) and the indoor humidity indicator (6). It is shown on the display as follows:

NOTE! To ensure the ventilation indicator can function as required, the outdoor sensor must be placed outdoors, otherwise the result can not be calculated properly.

IMPORTANT! Windows should be opened wide for a short time (a few minutes) for effective ventilation. If possible, open windows on opposite sides of the apartment (full ventilation).

Even if ventilation is not recommended by the weather station due to the humidity, the apartment should be ventilated regularly. This contributes to the reduction of pollutants and other volatile compounds in the room air.

Main unit signal receivement check

The transmission range is about 50 meters from the outdoor sensor to the main unit (in open area). The main unit should receive the temperature/humidity information from the transmitter within 3-4 minutes after set-up. Should the main unit not receive information from transmitter within 3-4 minutes after setting up, please check following steps:

1. Press and hold the touch control CH/ (12c) for 2-3 seconds to re-start receiving from the transmitter; the data will normally be received within 3 minutes.
2. If the first step does not yield a desirable solution, please remove the batteries and re-install them (hardware reset).

At the same time, please make sure the following:

1. The main unit as well as the sensor should be at least 5 to 6 feet (1.5 to 2 meters) away from any interfering sources, such as computer monitors or TV sets.
2. The main unit should not stand close to metal window frames.
3. Please do not use other electrical products, such as headphones or speakers, operating on the same signal frequency (433 MHz).
4. Electrical devices operating on the same signal frequency may also cause interference. This can include devices used in the neighborhood as well.

Main unit channel setting

1. The main unit can be connected with a maximum of up to 3 transmitters.
2. Press the touch control CH/ (12c) to switch between the displays of each channel. The main unit will display the information of the corresponding transmitter. When the symbol is displayed near the channel information the automatic display rotation is activated. The display changes between the information of the connected remote sensors every 10 seconds.

NOTE! The function to change the channels by pressing the CH/ button can be used only if more than one outdoor sensor is connected with the main unit. Otherwise this function is disabled.

Background illumination
Press LIGHT button (5) to to turn on the background. It will be turned off automatically after approx. 5 seconds.

Sensor function

1. Move the CH switch (24) to the position (1-3) that corresponds with the channel which will be used for transmission (select channel 1 if only one outdoor sensor is connected). If you would like to connect more than one outdoor sensor with the main unit, different channels need to be selected for each sensor.
2. Once the weather station receives radio signals from the sensors, the alternating temperature values of the different channels will be updated on the weather station every 1-2 minutes.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Signal disconnection
If the display of the outdoor temperature goes blank without obvious reasons, please check the following:

1. The outdoor sensor is still in place.

2. The batteries of both the sensor and the main unit are not empty. Replace batteries with new ones if necessary.
   NOTE! When the temperature drops below freezing point, the batteries of the outdoor sensor can also freeze and their voltage and lifetime are reduced.

3. Both devices are positioned within the reception area and the reception area is free of sources of interference and obstacles. If necessary, reduce the distance between the devices.

Transmission collision
Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of this product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of the product. The transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume once the interference recedes.
