In addition to the supplied remote sensor, you can use up to two other remote sensors (RadioShack Cat. No. 63-1027, not supplied) with the system’s three built-in remote chan- nels. Altogether you can monitor the temperature at four dif- ferent locations! Dual Line Temperature Display —- the top half of the main unit’s display shows the temperature at the remote sensor (outdoors, for example) and the bottom half shows the tem- perature at the main unit’s location. , Temperature Alarm — lets you set the main unit to sound an alarm each time a set high or low temperature is “reached at a remote sensor’s location. © 1998 Tandy Corporation.

MOUNTING You can place the main unit and remote sensor on flat sur- faces, or mount either on the wall using the supplied bracket (remote sensor) and screws (not supplied). Selecting a Location Choose locations for ihe’main unit and remote sensor that are within 60—90 feet (20—60 meters) of each other. The main unit should be located indoors, but the remote sensor can be placed either indoors or out. The construction of your home or office might affect the transmission range between the'main unit and the remote sensor. If you have a choice of several locations, try each to see which provides the best performance. Cautions: ° Do not place the main unit or remote sensor where it will be indirect sunlight.

The main unit starts searching for those signals. ' The temperature measured at the main unit appears on the bottom half of its display (indicated by QB). Once the main unit receives the remote sensor's signal, the temperature measured at the remote sensor appears on the top half of the display. 7 Remote Sensor; Temperature Main Unit Temperature Note: If the main unit does not receive or stops receiving a signal from the remote sensor, it displays —- . - instead of a temperature.

Additional re- mote sensors (Cat. No. 63-1027) are available at your local RadioShack store. Set CHANNEL 1/2/3 inside each remote sensor’s battery compartment to a different setting. To display the temperature information for a remote sensor, repeatedly (if necessary) press CHANNEL on the main unit you see the channel number you set that sensor to use.

When the arcs appear one after another, the main unit is searching for or receiving a signal from the selected channel’s remote sensor, ' Checking the Maximum/Minimum Temperatures The main unit stores the maximum (highest) and minimum (lowest) local temperatures and those of each remote sensor in its memory. Follow these steps to recall the maximum and minimUm tem- peratures stored since the last memory reset. 1. Repeatedly press CHANNEL on the main unit to select the desired channel. ' 2. Press MEM once to recall the maximum temperature (MAX) and again to recall the minimum (MIN) tempera- ture. ‘f" 3.

TROUBLESHOOTING: Manually Searching for 3 Signal If the main unit displays -- . - instead of a temperature or it continuously displays a temperature different than that dis- played on the selected channel's remote sensor, this means the main unit has stopped receiving a signal from the sensor. Press CHANNEL and MEM at the same time on the main unit to have it manually search for a signal.

This resets all display elements and temperature settings. If the remote sensor stops operating properly (and you have tried manually searching for a signal) use a pointed object ~$ (such as a straightened paper clip) to press RESET inside the remote sensor’s battery compartment.

The following sug- gestions will help you care for your thermometer system so you can enjoy it for years. Keep the system away from dust and dirt, . %% which can cause premature wear of parts. ///// Handle the system gently and carefully. Drop- ping a component can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the system to work improperly. ‘ Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. Batteries can leak chemicals that damage your system‘s elec- tronic parts. Wipe the system with a damp cloth occasion- ally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter- gents to clean the system's components. Modifying or tampering with the thermometer system's inter- nal components can cause a malfunction and might invali- ~ date its warranty. If your thermometer system is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. - ‘ 20— $9 -$ i 63-1026.t'm 21 Tue Sep 22 $5926 1998 FCC INFORMATION This equipment complies with the limits for a Class 8 digital device as specified in Part 15 of FCC Rules.
