please follow the below procedure:
1. Insert new batteries in the main unit first (see
Battery Installation).
2. Insert batteries in the two remote units
(Temperature/Humidity Transmitter and Rain
Gauge Transmitter).
3. Do not touch any other buttons or settings on the
clock. It will automatically receive the remote
temperature/humidity, rain gauge data and indoor
temperature/humidity.
Remote Temper ture/Humidity Tr nsmitter
1. After installing the batteries (or pressing the
RESET button), the temperature/humidity RF
(radio frequency) signal is immediately sent to the
clock. The clock attempts to receive the RF
temperature/humidity signal for the first five
minutes and refreshes the RF temperature every

Wireless Remote Temper ture/Humidity nd
R inf ll Tr nsmission
The transmission frequency is 433MHz. The outdoor
transmission range is 100 feet from the main unit.
Obstacles, walls, etc. will reduce the transmission
range. Once the main unit is plugged in or the
batteries have been installed, it will start to receive
signals for ten minutes. Once batteries are placed in
the remote units, it will start to transmit
temperature/humidity/rainfall data to the main unit
every three minutes. Upon successful reception, the
remote/outdoor temperature/humidity and rainfall will
be shown in the remote temperature/humidity/rainfall
field on the LCD. The main unit automatically updates
the remote reading at three minute intervals.
Receiver Sign l Indic tor Icons
The following icons indicate the signal transmission
status on the LCD:
Tr nsmission Troubleshooting
1. If the main unit does not receive signals within the
first ten minutes, a blank “-” appears in the OUT
TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY or RAINFALL window
on the LCD. If at any time during operation a signal
is not received after five consecutive intervals, a
blank “-” appears. If this happens, press the
RE-SYNC button. The main unit will receive
signals for ten minutes.
2. If the remote unit’s batteries are running low, a low
battery icon appears in the OUT
TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY or RAINFALL field.
Replace the batteries.
3. If the display unexpectedly goes blank, press the
RE-SYNC button on the main unit to force the
main unit to receive a signal. If this does not work,
check the following:
- The AC/DC adaptor is plugged in properly to the
wall and unit.
- The remote unit is still in place.
- The batteries in both the remote unit and the
main unit are still good. Replace if necessary.
- The remote transmitter is within range and the
path is clear of obstacles or other interference
(see “Interference” section). Shorten the distance
if necessary.
Interference
Signals from other household devices such as
garage-entry controls, doorbells and home security
systems may interfere with the temperature-data
transmission and may cause temporary reception
failure. This is normal and does not affect the general
performance of the unit. The transmission and
reception of the temperature/humidity/rainfall reading
will resume once the interference has stopped.

ring to adjust the levelling of the rain gauge).
7. Close the outer case. The installation of the rain
gauge is completed.
Synchronis tion of Remote Units nd M in Unit
1. After the batteries have been inserted in the main
unit and in the remote transmitter unit, the LCD on
the remote should show current temperature/
humidity. In a few minutes, the remote
temperature/humidity/rainfall are shown in the
outside temperature/humidity/rainfall field on the
main unit. If at least ten minutes pass and the
outside temperature/humidity/rainfall field displays
“---” instead of the remote unit’s temperature/
humidity/rainfall, see the “Transmission
Troubleshooting” section. Be sure the main unit
and transmitter units are in sync and the outdoor
temperature/humidity/rainfall are displayed on the
main unit.
2. After a few minutes, place the remote transmitter
unit in the desired outdoor location within 100 feet
maximum of the main unit. Place the main unit as
close as possible to the outdoor remote unit. For
best results, the remote unit should be placed
within sight of the main unit, such as outside the
closest window. If necessary, screw the included
wall-mount bracket to a convenient outdoor
location and place the transmitter unit inside the
bracket. The remote/outdoor temperature/
humidity/rainfall will be shown on the main unit.
Obstacles, walls, etc. reduce the range
significantly. The transmitter should be placed
where it will not experience weather extremes,
such as rain, snow, direct sunlight, etc. This allows
you to receive an accurate outside temperature/
humidity/rainfall reading and weather forecast.
Note: For more details on synchronization, please
refer to “Wireless Remote Temperature
Transmission”.
We ther Forec st
The local weather forecast and weather tendency are
predicted using the rate of change in atmospheric
pressure determined by a precisely calibrated
pressure sensor. After turning the unit on for the first
time, it takes 24 hours for the weather forecasting
data to be calculated for the first time. After 24 hours,
the unit calculates the weather for the next 6 hours.
To ensure a reliable weather calculation, do not
relocate the unit during operation. Weather tendency
is indicated by an up or down forecast arrow.
1. The up arrow icon ( ) indicates a significant
increase in atmospheric pressure. This normally
means the weather is going to improve.
2. The down arrow icon ( ) indicates a
significant decrease in atmospheric pressure. This
means the weather is going to get worse.
3. The forecast icon ( ) without an arrow
indicates a steady/insignificant change of
atmospheric pressure. This means the weather will
remain unchanged.
We ther Conditions
The current weather condition is displayed using one
of five animated icons. Sunny, Partly Cloudy, Cloudy,
Rainy or Stormy. The stormy icon only appears when
a sudden and serious drop in atmospheric pressure
is detected.
B rometric Gr ph
1. The barometric graph shows the previous day’s
pressure changes. The Time Axis shows the
changes from the previous day, e.g. 4 = 4:00am,
8 = 8:00am, 12 = 12:00pm, 16 = 4:00pm,
20 = 8:00pm and 24 = 12:00am
2. The unit stores the pressure mean of the previous
day from 12:00am to 11:59pm
3. The barometric graph shows the pressure
difference between the pressure at the time
(4:00am, 8:00am, 12:00pm, 4:00pm, 8:00pm and
12:00pm) and the mean pressure.
4. If the pressure difference exceeds ±6mb
(millibars), then the barometric graph shows the
±6mb.
5. The barometric graph resets if there is a change to
the time zone, Daylight Saving Time, or day setting
(manual or radio controlled). The barometric graph
resets if the clock setting (manual or radio
controlled) deviation is larger than ± half an hour.
