CHECKING FOR 433MHz RECEPTION
If the outdoor temperature data is not being received within three minutes after setting up (or outdoor
display show "- -. -" in the outdoor section of the temperature station after 3 failed attempts during
normal operation), please check the following points:
1.
The distance of the temperature station or transmitters should be at least 2 meters away from any
interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets.
2.
Avoid placing the transmitters onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames.
3.
Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the 433MHz-signal
frequency may prevent correct signal transmission or reception. Neighbors using electrical devices
operating on the 433MHz-signal frequency can also cause interference.
Note:
When the 433MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the transmitter or
temperature station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this
happen accidentally then reset all units (see "SETTING UP" above) otherwise transmission problems may
occur.
The transmission range is around 100 meters from the outdoor transmitter to the temperature station (in
open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. If no
reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to be reset (see
"SETTING UP" above).
POSITIONING THE TEMPERATURE STATION:
The temperature station provides the option of table standing or wall mounting the unit. Before wall
mounting, please check that the outdoor temperature(s) can be received from the desired location(s). To
wall mount:
