BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote weather
sensors and the main unit when temperatures are above 32°F (0°C).
We recommend using lithium batteries for the remote weather sensors
when temperatures are below 32°F (0°C)
• Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries cannot
maintain correct power requirements)
• ALWAYS install batteries in the remote weather sensors before the
main unit
• Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in the battery
compartment
• Remove protective plastic screen from LCD display (if any)
• During an initial setup, place the remote weather sensors close to the
main unit
• After reception is established (all remote readings will appear on the
main unit’s display), position the remote sensors and the main unit
within the effective transmission range: 328 feet (100 meters) for
temperature/humidity sensors and 100 feet (30 meters) for wind speed
meter. Ideally they should be placed within the line of sight from the
main unit. See placement tips in the user manual for each remote
weather sensor.
• Transmission/reception range may be affected by trees, metal
structures and electronic appliances, by surrounding building materials
and the way how the receiver (main unit) and transmitters (remote
weather sensors) are positioned.
• The main unit must be placed indoors.
• Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit (receiver),
minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and furniture.

NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing, the batteries in the
outdoor remote sensor may have reduced voltage supply and a shorter
effective range. We recommend using lithium batteries at temperatures of
32°F (0°C) and below.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that remote weather sensors are easily accessible for
cleaning and maintenance.
We recommend cleaning the remote weather sensors periodically, as the dirt
and debris may affect sensors accuracy.
REMOTE TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY SENSOR
FEATURES
• Remote data transmission to the main unit via 433 MHz frequency
• LCD displays temperature, humidity and channel
• Selection of the temperature display in Celsius or Fahrenheit
• Three (3) transmission channels selection
• Case can be wall mounted using built-in hanger
A. LED INDICATOR
• Flashes once when the remote sensor transmits a reading to the main
unit.
• Flashes twice when battery power is low.
