BATTERIES: WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT BATTERIES?

•Good fresh batteries are important for best performance in your sensors and as backup in

your clock.

•Batteries with an expiration date of 2028, were manufactured in 2018.

•We recommend batteries with an expiration date 6 years in advance of the current year for

best performance.

•A minimum voltage of 1.48 v per battery is required for best performance.

•Lithium batteries may be used in outdoor sensors. Alkaline batteries for the clock.

4. shaded location.

MOUNTING: WHERE DO I MOUNT/POSITION MY SENSOR?

•Watch sensor mounting video: http://bit.ly/TH_SensorMounting

•Place your thermo-hygro sensor at least 6 feet off the ground.

•For accurate temperature readings your sensor needs to be shaded from the sun and in a

well ventilated area. Trapped moisture will cause inaccurate readings.

•Mount your sensor vertically to allow moisture to drain out the bottom.

•Preferred location is on a north facing wall under an eave or deck rail.

•Avoid placing near a metal roof that will cause it to read high on sunny days.

3 | Page

•Avoid other sources of heat such as soffit vents, and window or door frames.

•For accurate humidity readings, avoid placement near vegetation and lakes or other bodies

of water when possible.

•Maximum transmission distance from your thermos-hygro sensor to your station, in open air

is 197 feet (60 meters).

•Insert the mounting screw through the front of the transmitter and into the wall. Tighten the

screw to snug (do not over tighten).

WHERE TO I PLACE MY STATION?

FORECAST ICONS: WHAT DO THE FORECAST ICONS MEAN?

The forecast icons predict weather condition over the next 12-hours based on the change of

atmospheric pressure with about 70-75% accuracy. As weather conditions cannot be 100%

correctly forecasted, we are not responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.

Forecast Icons:

•Sunny

•Partly Sunny

•Cloudy

•Rain

•T-Storm

Note: As the Station builds memory, it will compare the current average pressure to the past

forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the Station operates in one

location the more accurate the forecast icons will be. Please allow 7-10 days for barometer

calibration.

DOES THIS STATION HAVE A BACKLIGHT?

Power Cord:

•Hold the ON/OFF/BL button for 3 seconds, until the Station beeps, to turn the continuous

Backlight ON.

•When the Backlight is off, press any button to turn on the backlight for 8 seconds.

Batteries Only: Press any button to activate the backlight for 8 seconds.

WHY DON’T THE TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY READINGS

ON MY STATION MATCH THE WEATHER REPORT?

•Your temperature and humidity readings are from your sensor at your location. Your local

reporting station can be miles away so readings will differ.

WHY DOES MY OUTDOOR SENSOR SHOW DASHES?

•If the sensor loses connection to the station for any reason, the station will show dashes

after 3 minutes.

•To search for your Outdoor Sensor, hold the /CH button until the Reception Icon animates.

6 | Page

•When the sensor is connected, the Reception Icon will flash once when new signal is

received.

•If your outdoor sensor is unable to reconnect on its own, a reset of your station may be

necessary. Use a paper clip to press the RST button on the back of the station.

.WHY DOES MY TEMP/HUMIDITY READING COME AND GO?

•RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be normal in

some environments (e.g., moister climates).

•If a sensor goes out, please wait 2-4 hours for it to reconnect on its own. Please be patient –

these stations can reconnect on, after many hours out.

•RF (radio frequency) communication is not always 100% on. Certain temporary conditions

can cause it to go out for a time (e.g., 100% humidity).

If a miss happens:

•If sensor loses connection to the station for any reason, the station will show NO after 30

minutes.

•The station will search for 5 minutes every hour to reconnect with sensor.

•Be sure you have good batteries. Manually search for your sensor.

Try this:

•Bring your sensor within 10 feet of your station and make sure it is connected to the station.

•After 15 minutes move the sensor into the next room with a wall between the sensor and the

station for 1 hour.

•If there is no loss of signal in that hour, move the sensor just outside.

•Continue moving the sensor back to its original location.

•If you lose connection, look for sources of interference.

WHAT IS DISTANCE | RESISTANCE | INTERFERENCE?

Distance:

•The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 197 feet (60 meters) between each

sensor and your station.

•Consider the signal path from your station to each sensor as a straight line.

•Consider the distance the station is from other electronics in the home.

Resistance:

•Each obstacle: walls, windows, vegetation, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects will

reduce the effective signal range by about one-half.

•Mounting your sensors on a metal fence can significantly reduce the effective signal range.

Interference:

•Consider electronics in the signal path between the sensors and your station.

7 | Page

•Simple relocation of the sensors or the station may correct an interference issue.

•Windows can reflect the radio signal.

•Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal.

•Stucco held to the wall by a metal mesh will cause interference.

•Transmitting antennas from: ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports, military

bases, etc. may cause interference.

•Electrical wires, utilities, cables, etc. may create interference if too close.

CAN I CHANGE BATTERIES IN MY SENSORS WITHOUT LOSING DATA?

We designed this station for convenience, so that a simple change of batteries does not lose

data or require you to power down your station.

•When Battery Indicator shows in the Outdoor Sensor area, replace batteries in your Outdoor

Sensor.

•Then hold the +/OUT button for 3 seconds and your station will search for your sensor.

•When changing the batteries in the color station, continue using the power cord. After

replacing the batteries, no other action is needed. The batteries in the station only maintain

time/date in the event of a power outage.

HOW DO I VIEW MY MIN/MAX READINGS?

The MIN/MAX readings are all time values from when the station was first powered on or last

reset.

1. Press the MEM button to view indoor & outdoor MAX records.

2. Press MEM again to view MIN records.

Reset Records:

1. Press the MEM button to view records.

2. Hold the MEM button to reset all Indoor and Outdoor records to current readings.
