Battery compartment BAR688HGA_EN_REV3 4 2006. 3. 13, 6:35 PM 3. Make sure you use a different channel for each sensor. Simultaneously press CHANNEL and MEM on the main unit to initiate signal sending between the sensor and main unit. Close the battery door and secure the screws. Place the sensor in the desired location using the table stand or wall mount. For best results: · Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture. · Do not place the sensor more than 30 m (100 ft) from the main (indoor) unit. · Position the sensor so that it faces the main (indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture. · 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). 5 BAR688HGA_EN_REV3 5 2006. 3. 13, 6:35 PM EN EN SENSOR DATA TRANSMISSION The sensor reception icon in the remote sensor area shows the status. [. . . ] To view outdoor sensors temperature readings: Press CHANNEL. To auto-scan between sensors: Press and hold CHANNEL for 2 seconds. Each sensor's data is displayed for 3 seconds. To toggle between current, minimum and maximum records for the selected sensor: Press MEM repeatedly. [. . . ]
