QUICK SETUP
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline
Batteries and avoid rechargeable
batteries.
1. Have the indoor temperature station
and remote temperature sensor 3 to
5 feet apart.
2. Batteries should be out of both units
for 10 minutes.
3. Place the batteries into the remote
temperature sensor first then into
the indoor temperature station.
(All remote temperature sensors must be
started before the indoor temperature
station)
4. DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS
FOR 10 MINUTES.

4
In this time the indoor temperature
station and remote temperature sensor
will start to talk to each other and the
display will show both the indoor
temperature and an outdoor temperature.
If the indoor temperature station does not
display both temperatures after the 10
minutes please retry the set up as stated
above. After both indoor and outdoor
temperatures are displayed for 10
minutes you can place your remote
temperature sensor outdoors and set your
time.
The remote temperature sensor should be
placed in a dry, shaded area. The remote
temperature sensor has a range of 80
feet. Any walls that the signal will have
to pass through will reduce distance. An
outdoor wall or window will have 20 to
30 feet of resistance and an interior wall
will have 10 to 20 feet of resistance.

5
Your distance plus resistance should not
exceed 80 ft. in a straight line.
NOTE: Fog and mist will not harm
your remote temperature sensor but
direct rain must be avoided.
To complete the set up of your indoor
temperature station after the 10 minutes
have passed please follow the steps in
the detailed set up guide on page 8-9.
