GETTING STARTED
BATTERIES
Insert batteries before first use, matching the
polarity as shown in the battery compartment.
For best results, install batteries in the remote
sensor before the main unit. Press RESET after
each battery change.
• Place the sensor in a location with a clear
view to the sky, away from metallic or
electronic objects.
• Position the sensor close to the main unit
during cold winter months as below-freezing
temperatures may affect battery performance
and signal transmission.
The transmission range may vary depending on
many factors. You may need to experiment with
various locations to get the best results.
Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant
amounts of water. Because of this they will
freeze in low temperatures of approximately 12°C (10°F). Disposable Lithium batteries have a
much lower threshold for temperature with an
estimated freezing range of below -30°C (-22°F).
Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of
factors such as extremely cold temperatures.
Extreme cold may temporarily reduce the
effective range between the sensor and the base
station. If the unit's performance fails due to low
temperature, the unit will resume proper
functioning as the temperature rises to within the
normal temperature range (i.e. no permanent
damage will occur to the unit due to low
temperatures).

CLOCK
CLOCK RECEPTION
This product is designed to synchronize its
calendar and clock automatically. The sensor
collects the data and transmits them to the main
unit once it is brought within range of a radio
signal:
• DCF-77 generated from Frankfurt, Germany
for Central Europe.
• MSF-60 generated from Rugby, England.
The radio signal range is 1500km (932 miles).
CLOCK RECEPTION SIGNAL
Initial reception takes 2-10 minutes for first set
up or when RESET is pressed. Once complete,
the reception icon will stop blinking. If the signal
is weak, it can take up to 24 hours to get a valid
signal.
BAROMETER
This product tracks fluctuations in barometric
pressure to provide the weather forecast, and
the current and past 24 hours barometric
pressure history measurements are recorded by
the main (indoor) unit.
