2. Receiving unit cannot be programmed manually until the wireless remote sensor unit regis-

tration procedure has been completed.

3. Position the remote unit and main unit within effective transmission range, which, in usual

circumstances, is 50 m. Although the remote unit is weather resistant, it should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.

BATTERY INSTALLATION FOR MAIN UNIT

1. Remove the battery door;

2. Insert 2 pieces AAA size 1.5V alkaline battery as indicate by the polarity;

3. Close the battery door.

3. While the LED is ashing, press once the [CH] key will change the sensor channel setting

to 2. Keep toggle on [CH] key can change channel setting up to 3. The LED is blinking at a frequency to indicate the channel setting. i.e. continuous blinks 2 times indicate channel-2 is selected. Note: If user does not press any key for 10 seconds, it will exit the channel setting mode and transmit the RF signal. The main unit will register the temperature reading.

REMOTE CHANNEL AUTO-SCROLLING

This device is equipped with an auto-scroll function. While the auto-scroll function is set, the unit will automatically cycle to display the temperature of each remote sensor for 6 seconds.

1. To retrieve manually the specic sensor temperature and humidity reading,

press key until desired channel number is displayed.

2. To enable auto-scroll function, use button to toggle channel 1,2,... until auto scroll

icon appears beside the channel indicator. Lift of this part14

The radio-controlled time is calculated by the Cesium Atomic clock of Braunschweig (ofcial clock of Germany). Then the time is coded and transmitted from Mainingen – near Frankfurt – via a signal on DCF-77 (77.5 kHz). The transmitting range of the signal is 1500 km, which means that most of Western and Central Europe is covered by this signal. Within this range the received time is completely accurate. Once sensor signal(s) are received, the wave icon will ash to indicate that the receiving unit starts to receive the DCF radio controlled time signal. Radio Controlled wave icon can indicate 4 levels of signal status: Very weak Weak Medium Strong Once the time signal is received, the wave icon will stay on the LCD, and time and calendar will automatically be updated. Note: During the 10-minute time signal reception, all manual settings will be suspended. If setting is desired, press once [ + ] key to deactivate the reception. You can also press and hold the same key for 2 seconds to manually activate the reception in normal mode.
