Setup Instructions

Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY

INFORMATION section at the beginning

of this manual including all text

under subheadings therein before

set up or use of this product.

Installing Batteries

1.

NOTE: Install the Weather Station’s batteries first.

2. Open the Weather station’s battery compartment cover.

3. Install two “AAA” batteries, making sure to follow

polarity marked on the inside of the compartment.

4. Close battery compartment cover.

5.

NOTE: Once batteries are in place, the LCD will

light up briefly and a short beep will sound. Then the

indoor temperature and humidity will automatically

display. If the indoor temperature is not displayed

after a few seconds, remove the batteries and wait

for at least 10 seconds before reinserting them.

6. Within three minutes of activating the Weather

Station, insert the Transmitter’s batteries.

7. Open the Transmitter’s battery compartment cover.

8. Install two “AAA” batteries, making sure to follow

polarity marked on the inside of the compartment.

9. Close battery compartment cover.

10.

NOTE: When battery power is low, the

battery icon will appear on the Weather

Station/Transmitter’s LCD display.

Testing Weather Station/

Transmitter Connection

1. After inserting batteries into Transmitter, the

Weather Station will start receiving readings from

the Transmitter. The outdoor temperature should be

displayed. If this does not happen within 15 minutes,

the batteries will need to be removed from both

units and reset, following the above instructions.

2.

NOTE: The Weather Station can take up to 3

remote transmitters. Follow the above steps for

each extra Transmitter, making sure to leave

10 seconds in between the reception of the last

Transmitter and the set-up of the next Transmitter.

The Weather Station will number the

Transmitters in the order of set-up (the first

Transmitter will have the temperature displayed

with the number 1 against it and so on).

3. When all Transmitters are set up, a testing

period will follow, during which the display

switches between all received Transmitters at

random. Press any key to stop this process.

4. The display will show the temperature for the first

Transmitter. The process also stops automatically

if no keys are pressed for a few minutes.

5. Once the remote temperature has been received

and displayed on the Weather Station, the time code

reception is automatically started. This will take about

7 minutes in good weather conditions.

NOTE: This 7-minute time period is an excellent

opportunity to install the Transmitter(s) in

suitable location(s) outdoors. To ensure

sufficient 433 MHz transmission, do not install

Transmitter(s) more than 100 meters from where

the Weather Station will be positioned.

6. If after 10 minutes the time code has not been

received, use the MODE key to manually enter a time

initially. The clock will automatically attempt each

hour to receive the time. When this is successful,

the received time will override the manually set time.

The date is also updated with the received time.

7. If the Weather Station cannot receive the time code

signal (perhaps because of weather disturbances

or transmitting distance), the time can be manually

set. The clock will then work as a normal clock.

Channel Settings

1. Once the batteries are inserted (and BEFORE

replacing Transmitter battery cover), use the

Channel Key on the back of the Transmitter

to select the channel. (If there is more than 1

Transmitter, please choose a different channel.

2. Once all settings have been made, close

the Transmitter battery compartment cover

and use the mounting hole to mount the

Transmitter on an outdoor wall or window.

3.

NOTE: The max. open distance between the

Weather Station and the Transmitter is 328 ft. (100

meters). Do not install the Transmitter at a distance

greater than 328 ft. Otherwise, the Weather Station

will not a receive a proper transmitter signal.

4. Keep out of direct rain and direct sun to prevent

inaccurate readings. Air conditioning or indoor heat

can effect the signal, leading to incorrect readings.
