INSTALLATION
Sensors
Locations
- DO NOT install sensors within a metre of diffusers.
- DO NOT install sensors close to localised sources of heat, draughts, moisture or odours.
- Install the outside sensor on the south side of the house shielded from rain and strong
wind close to the supply grille. (typically under the soffit).
- Install the roof sensor close to the roof air intake grille.
- Install the bedroom sensor in the most condensation prone occupied bedroom.
- Install the lounge sensor in the lounge or room with the home’s primary heat source.
- Cluster the sensors as much as possible rather than spreading them out
for good signal strength.
- Maintain a 1cm clearance around the sensors to allow for battery changes.
- Consider how home owners can safely get to the outside sensor to change the battery.
DO NOT mount the sensors before reading all the instructions
Sensors - Mounting
- If mounting to the wall ensure the sensor button is facing downwards. If mounting on
soffit ensure the sensor button is facing the wall.
- Sensors come with adhesive backs on the battery cover which can bond well to most
clean smooth surfaces.
- Clean surfaces with a clean cloth and alcohol, let dry, remove adhesive ring cover,
press and hold the sensor to the surface for 5 seconds to bond.
- Ensure there is nothing within 1cm of the sensor
so that it can be easily removed for battery changes.
- In the roof space: mount the sensor in an easy to spot location near the roof air
intake vent. Do not stick directly to rough sawn timber - screw in a piece of smooth
material to stick the sensor on.
Install bedroom and lounge sensors on the wall to reduce the influence of roof temperatures.

INSTALLATION
Sensor - Pairing
- Before starting the pairing process, ensure the touch screen is connected to
the Ceiling Controller Box.
- Power on the Ceiling Controller Box and press and hold the button within 10 seconds.
- The controller will give a long beep and the sensors will be ready to pair.
- First pair the roof sensor by removing the battery and clear plastic battery insulator
then reinsert the battery.
- After 3 seconds the LED on the front of the sensor will flash 3 times
and the controller will beep.
- Replace the battery cover and mount the roof sensor with the adhesive back
- Turn on the touch screen to verify the roof sensors has been paired.
- The bedroom temperature reading will show 99°C to indicate the next sensor to be paired
is the bedroom sensor.
- Go to the bedroom, put in the battery and hold the sensor up to the desired location
and look for 3 flashes.
- If there are less than 3 flashes see the trouble shooting guide.
- Check the touch screen to see if the sensor paired successfully and which sensor
to pair next.
- Remember, the pairing order is Roof, Bedroom, Lounge then Outside.
Button
The sensors must be paired in this order Roof, Bedroom, Lounge then Outside.
