SETTING UP: When one sensor is used First, insert the batteries to the sensor (see “How to install and replace batteries in the temperature sensor” below). Within 30 seconds of powering up the sensor, insert the batteries to the Temperature Station (see “How to install and replace batteries in the Temperature Station”...

is displayed user may proceed to the next step. After the batteries are inserted, the Temperature Station will start receiving data signal from the sensor. The outdoor temperature should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1.
Page 9
Using Multiple Sensors with One Temperature Station User shall remove all the batteries from the Temperature Station and sensors and wait 60 seconds if setting has been done with one sensor before. Insert the batteries to the first sensor. Within 30 seconds of powering up the first sensor, insert the batteries to the Temperature Station.
Page 10
The outdoor temperature from the first sensor (channel 1) should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. Also, the signal reception icon will be displayed. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1.
Page 11
Insert the batteries to the third sensor immediate after (in 10 seconds after) inserting battery to the second sensor. Then within 2 minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third sensor will be displayed and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the third sensor is successfully received.
Page 12
After the three sensors have been set up, user may need to check the readings displayed on the temperature station against those being shown on the sensor displays, in order to recognize on which channel each sensor is being presented. IMPORTANT: Transmission problems will arise if the setting for additional sensors is not followed as described above.
HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE STATION The Temperature Station uses 2 x AAA, Alkaline batteries. When batteries will need to be replaced, the low battery icon will appear on the LCD. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: Lift up the battery compartment cover.
Page 14
HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR The temperature sensor uses 1 x CR2032, 3.0V battery. When battery needs to be replaced, the low battery icon will appear on the LCD of the Temperature Station-or replace battery every 12 months. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: Pull out the battery holder at the bottom of the sensor.
Note: In the event of changing batteries in any of the units, all units need to be reset by following the setup procedures. This is because a random security code is assigned by the sensor at start-up and this code must be received and stored by the Temperature Station in the first few minutes of power supplying.
Please participate in the preservation of the environment. Return used batteries to an authorized depot. FUNCTION KEYS Temperature Station: The Temperature Station has two easy to use function keys.

* When the signal from the sensor is successfully received by the Temperature Station, this icon will be switched on. (If not successful, the icon will not be shown on the LCD). User can therefore easily see whether the last reception was successful (“ON” icon) or not (“OFF” icon). On the other hand, the short blinking of the icon shows that a reception is being done at that time.
Section 2 - OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE • Display of outdoor temperature. MANUAL SETTING: TEMPERATURE UNIT (°F) OR (°C) • User may choose to display the temperature readings in the unit of degree Fahrenheit (°F) or Celsius (°C). By pressing and holding the SET/CH key for about 3 seconds, the temperature unit of the displayed readings will shift between (°F) and (°C).

RESETTING THE MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM READINGS: User may reset the minimum and maximum temperature data to the current value by the following steps: Press the “MIN/MAX/+” key once to display the minimum data. Press and hold the “MIN/MAX/+” key for about 3 seconds to reset all the minimum / maximum data to the current values in a single action.
TEMPERATURE SENSOR: The outdoor temperature is measured and transmitted to the Temperature Station approximately every 16 seconds. The range of the temperature sensor may be affected by the temperature. Cold temperatures may decrease the transmitting distance. Please bear this in mind when placing the sensor. 915 MHz RECEPTION CHECK The Temperature Station should receive the outdoor temperature data within a few minutes after setup.
Page 26
The distance of the Temperature Station or sensor should be at least 5 to 6.5 feet (1.5 to 2 meters) away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets. Avoid positioning the Temperature Station onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames.
Page 27
for 45 seconds, the frequency is changed to 920MHz and the learning is tried another 45 seconds. If still not successful the reception is tried for 45 seconds on 910MHz. This will also be done for re-synchronization. When the 915MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the sensor or the Temperature Station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset.
Page 28
possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to be reset (see Setting up above). POSITIONING POSITIONING THE TEMPERATURE STATION: The Temperature Station comes attached with a table stand, which provides the option of table standing the unit in addition to wall mounting.
Page 29
To wall mount: Fix a screw (not supplied) into the desired wall, leaving the head extended out by about 5mm. Hang the Temperature Station onto the screw. Remember to ensure that it locks into place before releasing.
Page 30
POSITIONING THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR The remote temperature sensor can be placed onto any flat surface or wall mounted using the bracket which doubles as a stand or wall mount base.
Page 31
To wall mount: Secure the bracket onto a desired wall using the screws and plastic anchors. Clip the remote temperature sensor onto the bracket.
Page 32
Note: The mounting surface can affect the transmission range. If, for instance, the unit is attached to a piece of metal, it may then either reduce or increase the transmitting range. For this reason, we recommend not to place the unit on any metal surfaces or in any position where a large metal or highly polished surface is in the immediate vicinity (garage doors, double glazing, etc.).
CARE AND MAINTENANCE • Extreme temperatures, vibrations and shocks should be avoided as these may cause damage to the unit and give inaccurate forecasts and readings. • When cleaning the display and casings, use a soft damp cloth only. Do not use solvents or scouring agents as they may mark the LCD and casings.
Page 34
• Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage. Replace only with new batteries of the recommended type. • Do not make any repair attempts to the unit. Return them to their original point of purchase for repair by a qualified engineer. Opening and tampering with the unit may invalidate their guarantee.
