INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the Oregon Scientific™ Ultra-precision Professional
Weather System (WMR300 / WMR300A).
This system can provide you with weather information through several sensors
with high level of accuracy. All sensors are cabled to a transmitter box which is
battery and solar powered operated for wirelessly communicating and displaying
the data on an indoor LCD main unit.
This system remembers the data for a time range for you to monitor and analyze
the weather status. You can also export the data to PC by cable and manage and
analyze the data systematically.
The system can expand up to 8 thermometer & humidity sensors and be compatible
with other weather sensors. To purchase additional sensors, please contact your
local retailer.
NOTE Please keep this manual handy as you use your new product. It contains
practical step-by-step instructions, as well as technical specifications and warnings
you should know about.
