REMOTE SENSOR 1 – LED CONTROL LIghT Flashes once when the remote unit transmits a reading upon start up or the TX button is pressed. 2 – LCD DISpLAy LCD displays the temperature, humidity, channel number, low battery status. 3 – TX BUTTON Press TX button to transmit a reading, the LED flashes once before the battery cover is closed.
INSTALLATION OF BATTERIES REMOTE SENSOR: 1. Open the battery compartment located at the back of the sensor. Remove the 2 screws on the battery cover. 2. Select the desired channel: 1, 2 or 3. Note: If you wish to use more than one remote sensor, each sensor must be designated a separate channel.
LOW BATTERy WARNINg When the battery capacity of the remote sensor is low, a crossed battery symbol will appear in the outdoor temperature display of the main unit. It is time to replace with fresh batteries. When capacity of batteries of the main unit is low, a crossed battery symbol will appear in the time display of the main unit.
SENDINg AND RECEIvINg OF RADIO SIgNAL As soon as batteries are properly inserted, the main unit begins a three minute search for the remote sensor signal. The units are then synchronized. The remote sensor transmits readings with temperature and humidity data approximately every 50~56 seconds.
COMFORT INDICATOR There are 3 comfort indicators: dry, wet and comfort: 1. Dry : Indoor humidity < 40% 2. Comfort : Indoor temperature: 20°C ~ 26°C (68°F ~ 78.8°F), indoor humidity: 40 ~ 70% 3. Wet: Indoor humidity > 70% INTERRUpTED RADIO SIgNAL TRANSMISSION If the main unit does not register signal reception from the...
STATUS OF ThE SIgNAL TRANSMISSION 2 possible forms of transmission can be shown on the display of the main unit: The unit is in searching mode No signals MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM TEMpERATURE AND hUMIDITy The Weather Station automatically stores the respective maximum and minimum values for temperature and humidity for indoors and outdoors.
TREND DISpLAy FOR TEMpERATURE AND hUMIDITy The LCD display of the main unit has four trend indicators which predict the direction in which the temperature and humidity are changing: • Trend arrow for indoor temperature • Trend arrow for outdoor temperature •...
TEMpERATURE ALARM Temperature alert indicator Temperature Temperature Temperature Setting upper Setting lower alarm status alarm OFF alarm ON temperature temperature alarm alarm ACTIvATINg ThE TEMpERATURE ALARM When the temperature alarm turns on, an acoustic alarm will be initiated (with 3 continuous alarm sounds, 4 beeps each time) every minute if the temperature of the channel displayed reaches the preset alert temperature.
WEAThER FORECAST This unit is capable of detecting atmospheric pressure changes. Based on collected date it can predict the weather for the upcoming 12 to 24 hours. Note: • The accuracy of a general pressure-based weather forecast is 70%. •...
MOON phASE The weather station is equipped with a moon phase display which indicates eight moon phases from new moon to waning crescent. ATOMIC CLOCk The weather station is equipped with an atomic clock. It functions with utmost precision. The transition from normal time to day light savings time is automatic.
• During radio reception, press the -/RCC button will stop the radio reception. • The atomic clock will automatically receive the WWVB time code during the middle of the night. The signal is automatically sent at intervals at 2:03 am, 3:03 am and 4:03 am. Note: The radio controlled signal for time (WWVB 60 KHz) is transmitted from the WWVB radio station derives its signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.
