FT014T Outdoor Thermometer User Manual 1. Introduction Thank you for your purchase of the FT014T wireless outdoor Thermometer. The following user guide provides step by step instructions for installation, operation and troubleshooting. 2. Getting Started The FT014T wireless indoor / outdoor thermo-hygrometer consists of a display console (receiver), and a wireless thermo-hygrometer (remote transmitter). 2.1 Parts List QTY Thermo-Hygrometer transmitter Dimensions (LxWxH):6.8 x5.0 x 2.0cm User Manual Item 2.2 Remote Thermo-Hygrometer Sensor Set Up Note: To avoid permanent damage, please take note of the battery polarity before inserting the batteries. Pull down on the battery door to open the battery compartment, as shown in Figure 1.2. Insert two fresh AAA batteries (with the negative terminal of the battery in contact with each spring). Lithium batteries are recommended for cold weather environments. Slide the top lip of the battery door into the battery compartment guide and snap the bottom battery door bracket into place. The LED shown in Figure 1.1 will light up (visible through the plastic). Figure 1 2.4 Sensor Operation Verification Verify the humidity sensors match closely with the console and the sensors are in the same location (about 1-3 meters apart). The sensors should agree within 10% (the accuracy is ± 5%). Allow about 30 minutes for all sensors to stabilize. The humidity can be adjusted or calibrated later to match each other a known source. Verify the temperature sensors match closely with the console and sensor array in the same location (about 1-3 meters apart). The sensors should be within 2°C (the accuracy is ± 1°C). Allow about 30 minutes for all sensors to stabilize. The temperature can be adjusted or calibrated later to match each other or a known source. 3. Remote Sensor Installation It is recommended you mount the remote sensor on a north facing wall, in a shaded area. Direct sunlight and radiant heat sources will result in inaccurate temperature readings. Although the sensor is water resistant, it is best to mount in a well protected area, such as an eve. Use a screw or nail (not included) to affix the remote sensor to the wall, as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 4. Best Practices for Wireless Communication Wireless communication is susceptible to interference, distance, walls and metal barriers. We recommend the following best practices for trouble free wireless communication. 1. Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the console several feet away from computer monitors and TVs. 2. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). If you have other 433.92MHz devices and communication is intermittent, try turning off these other devices for troubleshooting purposes. You may need to relocate the transmitters or receivers to avoid intermittent communication. 3. Line of Sight Rating. This device is rated at 100m line of sight (no interference, barriers or walls) but typically you will get 30m maximum under most real-world installations, which include passing through barriers or walls. 4. Metal Barriers. Radio frequency will not pass through metal barriers such as aluminum siding. If you have metal siding, align the remote and console through a window to get a clear line of sight. 5. Glossary of Terms Accuracy Term Hygrometer Range Definition Accuracy is defined as the ability of a measurement to match the actual value of the quantity being measured. A hygrometer is a device that measures relative humidity. Relative humidity is a term used to describe the amount or percentage of water vapor that exists in air. Range is defined as the amount or extent a value can be measured. 6. Specifications 6.1 Wireless Specifications Line of sight wireless transmission (in open air): 100 meters, 30meters under most conditions Frequency: 433 MHz Update Rate: 60 seconds 6.2 Measurement Specifications The following table provides specifications for the measured parameters. Measurement Outdoor Temperature Range -40 to 60 °C Accuracy ± 1 °C Resolution 0.1 °C 6.3 Power Consumption Remote sensor : 2 x AAA 1.5V Alkaline or Lithium batteries Battery life: Minimum 24 months for remote thermometer sensor (use lithium batteries in cold weather climates less than -20 °C) FCC Caution. § 15.19 Labelling requirements. This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. § 15.21 Information to user. Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. § 15.105 Information to the user. Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: -Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. -Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. -Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. -Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
