User manual OREGON SCIENTIFIC BAR888

[. . . ] Assign different channels to different remote units. Insert batteries for remote units before doing so for the main unit. Place the main unit as close as possible next to the remote unit, reset the main unit after installing batteries. This will ensure easier synchronization between the transmission and reception of signals. [. . . ] The main unit will also start searching for signals for about a minute once batteries are installed. Upon successful reception, the individual channel temperatures will be displayed on the 2nd line and the indoors temperature on the 3rd line. The main unit will automatically update its readings at about 30-second intervals. If no signals are received, blanks " " will be displayed and the kinetic wave icon will show " ". Press CHANNEL and MEMORY simultaneously to enforce another search for about 30 seconds. This is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of the remote and main units. 6 If the temperature goes above or below the temperature measuring range of the main unit or the remote unit (stated in specification) , the display will show "HHH" or "LLL". HOW TO READ THE KINETIC WAVE DISPLAY The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the main unit. There are three possible forms: The unit is in searching mode. Temperature readings are securely registered. No signals. DISCONNECTED SIGNALS If without obvious reasons the display for a particular channel goes blank, press CHANNEL and MEMORY to enforce an immediate search. The remote unit of that channel is still in place. The batteries of both the remote unit and main unit. Note: When the temperature falls below freezing point, the batteries of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their voltage supply and the effective range. The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary. MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM TEMPERATURES The maximum and minimum recorded indoor temperatures and those of each channel will be automatically stored in memory. Press MEMORY once to display the maximum temperature and again the minimum temperature. The respective indicators, MAX or MIN will be displayed. To clear the memory, hold down MEMORY for two seconds. The maximum and minimum temperatures will be erased. If you press MEMORY now, the maximum and minimum temperatures will have the same values as the current ones until different readings are recorded. 7 TRANSMISSION COLLISION Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of this product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of the product. The transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume once the interference recedes. NOTE ON °C AND °F The unit of temperature display is selected on the °C/°F slide switch. [. . . ] 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: o Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. o Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
