Test & adjustment
First we will test if the display works properly:
•Connect a 12VDC / 300mA adapter (check the polarity and the connector
type) to the display. The display should indicate the time 00:00:00
(HH:MM:SS) and the (HH) should blink.
Next step is adjusting the displays-receiver to the transmitter. (skip this
step if a wired transmitter is used).
>Remote control button code.
•Hold the transmitter about one meter (one yard) away from the display.
•Press button 1 on the transmitter, the LED on the transmitter should blink
rapidly.
•Now adjust the trimmer capacitor CV2 (RECEIVER ADJUST) on the display
using the supplied plastic tuning screwdriver, until the receiver LED (REC),
blinks at the same rate as the transmitter.
•If a maximum range between transmitter -display is wanted, then it is advis-
able to repeat the above adjustment with the transmitter at about 10m (10
yard).
•If the adjustment is OK, then the HH of the display should increase each time
button 1is pressed.
GRemark : Hold the display away from large metal objects.
Next step is to calibrate the temperature indication :
•Disconnect the power supply from the display.
•Reconnect the power supply to the display.
•Put a known good thermometer next to the display temperature sensor.
•Press repeatedly button 2 on the transmitter until the display shows dAtE
blinking.
•Now press button 1 until rEGIOnis blinking.
•Next press button 2, Eu will blink. Use button 1to choose between Eu
(Europe) or uS(USA) display format for time, date and temperature.
•Confirm your choice by pressing button 2.
•Now press the left button until dEGrEEis displayed and confirm with but-
ton 2.
•Now adjust the trim potentiometer RV1 (TEMP. CALIBRATION) until the dis-
played temperature corresponds with the “reference” thermometer.
GRepeat the above adjustment after the display is warmed up for a few hours.
