Page 3: Installation
INSTALLATION The communication between the main unit (receiver) and the remote sensor (transmitter) is wireless, making it easy for installation. The remote temperature sensor transmits data to the main unit, with an operating range of up to 100 feet (30 meters) in an open area. The remote temperature sensor can be placed indoors or outdoors, depending on the area where the temperature is intended to be measured. -
Page 4: Before You Begin
BEFORE YOU BEGIN • We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote sensor and the main unit. When outdoor temperatures are below 0°C (32°F), it is recommended to use lithium batteries. • Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries cannot maintain correct power requirements.) •... - Page 5 REMOTE TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY SENSOR FEATURES • Remote data transmission to the main unit via 433 MHz frequency • Selection of the temperature unit in Celcius or Fahrenheit (default setting is Fahrenheit) • Three transmission channels • Can be wall mounted using built-in hanger A.

Page 6: Battery Installation
BATTERY INSTALLATION When the temperature falls below freezing point 0˚C (32 ˚F), battery voltage levels will be dropped and this may reduce the transmission range. For optimum performance, we recommend using lithium batteries. NOTE: Install the batteries and select the channel before mounting the remote sensor. - Page 7 PLACEMENT • The remote sensor should be placed under eaves or a similar location with free air circulation sheltered from direct sunlight and extreme weather. • Ideally, place the remote sensor over soil, rather than asphalt which would cause false readings. •...
