4.3 Outdoor Channel Selection

Press the CHANNEL/+ button to switch the display between the remote sensors 1 through 8

temperature and humidity, and scroll mode . In scroll mode, all of the detected outdoor sensors

will be displayed in five second intervals.

4.4 Temperature Units of Measure

The default temperature units of measure are degrees Fahrenheit. To toggle between degrees Celsius

and degrees Fahrenheit, press and hold the MIN/MAX button for 3 seconds.

4.5 Sensor Search Mode

If any of the sensor communication is lost, dashes (--.-) will be displayed on the screen. To reacquire

the signal:

1. If a specific channel is lost, press the CHANNEL/+ button to display this channel, then Press

and hold the CHANNEL/+ button for 3 seconds, and the remote search icon will be

constantly displayed for up to 10 minutes. Once the signal is reacquired, the remote search

icon will turn off, and the current values will be displayed.

2. If new sensors are added, subtracted, or multiple sensor channels are lost, Press and hold the

CHANNEL/+ button for 5 seconds, and the remote search icon will be constantly

displayed for up to 10 minutes. Once the signal is reacquired, the remote search icon

will turn off, and the current values will be displayed.

4.6 Best Practices for Wireless Communication

Wireless communication is susceptible to interference, distance, walls and metal barriers. We

recommend the following best practices for trouble free wireless communication.

1. Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the console several feet away from computer

monitors and TVs.

2. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). If you have other 433 MHz devices and

communication is intermittent, try turning off these other devices for troubleshooting

purposes. You may need to relocate the transmitters or receivers to avoid intermittent

communication.

3. Line of Sight Rating. This device is rated at 300 feet line of sight (no interference, barriers or

walls) but typically you will get 100 feet maximum under most real-world installations,

which include passing through barriers or walls.

4. Metal Barriers. Radio frequency will not pass through metal barriers such as aluminum

siding. If you have metal siding, align the remote and console through a window to get a clear

line of sight.

4.7 Adjustment or Calibration

Note: The calibrated value can only be adjusted on the console. The remote sensor(s) always

displays the un-calibrated or measured value.

Note: The measured humidity range is between 10 and 99%. Humidity cannot be accurately

measured outside of this range. Thus, the humidity cannot be calibrated below 10% or above 99%.

The purpose of calibration is to fine tune or correct for any sensor error associated with the devices

margin of error. The measurement can be adjusted from the console to calibrate to a known source.

Calibration is only useful if you have a known calibrated source you can compare it against, and is
