    Replace the batteries when the low-battery indicator of the indoor tempera- ture lights up. (Repeat the steps described in section, “Before Beginning”.) TWO SENSORS Each remote module has two sensors. The internal (ambient) sensor is located inside the case toward the bottom of the remote module. It is ideal for monitoring air temperatures.
  • Page 10 If no signals are received, blanks “- - -” will be displayed and the kinetic wave icon will show “ ”. Press CHANNEL and MEM simultaneously to force another search for 30 seconds. This is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of the remote and main unit. Repeat this step whenever you find discrepancies between the reading shown on the main unit and that on the respective remote unit.

    HOW TO READ THE KINETIC WAVE DISPLAY The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the main unit. There are three possible forms. The unit is in searching mode. Temperature readings are registered. No signals. MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM TEMPERATURES The maximum and minimum recorded indoor temperatures and those of each channel will automatically be stored in memory.

    3. Use the ADVANCE () button to set the upper or lower temperature. If this is the first time setting limits, the lower limit will start from -58 °F (-50°C) and the upper limit 158°F (+70°C). Otherwise, the reading will start from the temperature last selected.
  • Page 13: Transmission Collision

    The remote unit comes with a wall-mount holder and a removable stand. Use either to hold the unit in place. TRANSMISSION COLLISION Signals from other radio devices may interfere with those of this product and cause temporary reception failure. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of the product.

Do this by placing the remote transmitter in a vertical position. Place the main receiver (large digital display) in a vertical position approximately 6 feet away from the remote transmitter.
  • Page 17 2. Place the remote transmitter in a vertical or stand-up position. 3. Place the main receiver in a vertical or stand-up position. 4. Place the remote transmitter and the main receiver in locations where the radio signal does not need to be sent through metal panels, thick walls, multilevels, etc.
