    following best practices for trouble free wireless communication. 1. Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the console several feet away from computer monitors and TVs. 2. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). If you have other 433 MHz devices and communication is intermittent, try turning off these other devices for troubleshooting purposes.

  • Page 14: Remote Sensor Temperature Calibration

    The purpose of calibration is to fine tune or correct for any sensor error associated with the devices margin of error. The measurement can be adjusted from the console to calibrate to a known source. Calibration is only useful if you have a known calibrated source you can compare it against, and is optional.

    increase (or decrease) the temperature reading, press and hold the CH/+ or MIN/MAX button. To return the temperature to the actual or uncalibrated measurement, press the SET button. Once the displayed temperature equals the calibrated source, press and hold the SET button for three seconds, or wait 15 seconds for timeout, and the temperature value will stop flashing.

  • Page 16: Glossary Of Terms

    Discussion: Temperature errors can occur when a sensor is placed too close to a heat source (such as a building structure, the ground or trees). To calibrate temperature, we recommend a mercury or red spirit (fluid) thermometer. Bi-metal (dial) and other digital thermometers are not a good source and have their own margin of error.
