WIRELESS TRANSMISSION
Automatic Learn Function:
The learn function starts automatically and runs for approximately 3 minutes
when batteries are first installed in the receiver.
Within these 3 minutes, the receiver will pick up the temperature and humidity
signals from the remote transmitter and display the reading.
Manual Learn Function (Remote Signal Search):
If a new remote transmitter is added or if signal is lost (outdoor read out on
the receiver is blinking), the learn function must be executed again.
1. Press and hold CHN for 3 seconds to start.
2. Unit will beep to indicate that learn function has started.
3. Channel symbol will blink and unit will continue to beep as each remote
transmitter is detected.
4. Within 3 minutes, the temperature and humidity reading of the remote
transmitter will display on the receiver.

WIRELESS TRANSMISSION
Environmental factors and signals from other household devices, such as
remote entry controls, security systems, and computers, may interfere with
the wireless transmission of this product and cause temporary reception
loss. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of this
product. Stable reception will resume once the interference ends.
For optimal performance:
• Place the receiver and remote transmitter side by side about 1 metre
apart, and allow the receiver and remote transmitter to synchronize for 10
minutes before you place the remote transmitter outdoors.
• The remote transmitter should be placed in a dry shaded area.
NOTE: Fog andmist will not harm the remote transmitter but direct rain
must be avoided.
• Mount the remote transmitter upright avoiding metallic objects and
frames, such as window sills. Verify that there are no obstacles like a
transmission tower or steep hill that can cause interference and blockage
between the remote transmitter and receiver.
• Place the receiver unit at least 2 metres away from any electrical devices,
such as your television set, computer, cordless phone, or any radio con-
trolled equipment.
• 1Replace unit(s) with fresh batteries when the Low Battery Indicator lights
up.
• Refer to the SETTING UP section.
• You may need to reposition the remote transmitter to a different location
and/or closer to the receiver for the best transmission.

HISTORICAL TEMPERATURE BAR GRAPH
The bar graph lets you see the temperature
trend over a period of 12 hours in 3-hour
intervals. The left axis denotes the change in
temperature in ±2 degrees. The top axis
denotes the time period broken into 3-hour
intervals. The reference point is at (0,0);
where the current period is time zero and the
change in temperature is zero.
How to read the bar graph?
About 12 hours ago
The temperature was approximately 4 degrees
cooler than the current temperature
About 9 hours ago
The temperature was approximately 2 degrees
cooler than the current temperature
About 6 hours ago
The temperature was approximately the same
as the current temperature
Within the last 3 hours
The temperature was approximately 2 degrees
warmer than the current temperature
Selecting Indoor or Outdoor Bar Graph:
You can select to view the indoor or outdoor bar graph. The indoor bar graph
is based on the local temperature and the outdoor bar graph is based on the
remote (outdoor) temperature of Channel 1.
1. Scroll to Date mode using MODE.
2. Toggle between the indoor and outdoor bar graph by pressing ON/OFF in
date mode.
3. If you have selected the indoor bar graph, the INDOOR symbol will appear
