TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE --- RMR966P/ RMR966PU
Trouble
"---" is being displayed for Remote data on the
display of the Main Unit
Displayed remote temperature data on the display
of the Main Unit are different from those on the
display of the Remote Sensor
Displayed Temperature data are different from
other measuring instruments
- Clock time is not correctly set; and/or
- Reception icon "Antenna" displays as "No
reception"
Possible Cause
(1) Probably due to electromagnetic interference
and/or obstacle in-between the Main Unit and
Remote Sensor (e.g., double glass protection
or reinforced concrete wall); or
(2) Batteries of the Remote Sensor are being
discharged
Another Remote Sensor using the same frequency and
same ID code is being in use within the effective area
(1) The measurement method is different
(2) The area under evaluation is different or being
influenced by climate
The clock radio signal is not received because:
- Electromagnetic interference exist, or the Main
Unit is located within reinforced concrete wall
or
shadowed area location
- Orientation of placement is not at optimum posi
tion for reception of clock radio signal

Remedy
(
1) (i) Move the Main Unit away from any
source of interference such as DECT
phone, mobile phone; and/or (ii) Move the
Remote sensor nearer to the main unit and
start SEARCH mode in the Main Unit
(2) Check LED of Remote Sensor. Replace
with new batteries if it does not flash in
one minute
Place the Remote Sensor closer to the Main
Unit. Then reset the Remote Sensor and activate
SEARCH mode in the Main Unit
(1) Use the same instruments
consideration of the tolerance of readings
(2) Place the 2 instruments very closely for a
time period (no less then 30 minutes),
avoiding direct light and air movements
- Locate the Main Unit far from PC, mobile
phone etc and re-locate it near the window
sill. Wait at least 24 hours (note: during
night-time signal is less attenuate
particularly after raining)
- The clock radio signal is searched at 1:00,
2:00, 3:00, 9:00, 15:00, 21:00 every day
automatically
- To force the signal reception please refer
to instructions in the User's manual
