Thermo-Hygro Transmitter

SETTING UP
WHEN ONE TRANSMITTER IS USED 1. First, insert the batteries in the transmitter (see How to install and replace batteries in the Thermo-hygro outdoor transmitter above). 2. Within 2 minutes of powering up the transmitter, insert the batteries in the Weather Station (see How to install and replace batteries in the Weather Station above). Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly and a short signal tone will sound. Following the indoor temperature/humidity and the time as 12:00 will be displayed. If these information are not displayed on the LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them. Once the indoor data is displayed user may proceed to the next step. 3. After the batteries are inserted, the Weather station will start receiving data signal from the transmitter. The outdoor temperature and humidity data should then be displayed on the Weather station. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1. 4. In order to ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission however, the distance between the Weather Station and the transmitter should not be more than 330 feet (100 meters) (see notes on Positioning and 915 MHz Reception). Note: In the event of changing batteries of the units, ensure the batteries do not spring free from the contacts. Always wait at least 1 minute after removing the batteries before reinserting, otherwise start up and transmission problems may occur. WHEN MORE THAN ONE TRANSMITTER IS USED 1. User shall remove all the batteries from the Weather Station and transmitters, and wait 60 seconds. 2. Insert the batteries in the first transmitter. 3. Within 2 minutes of powering up the first transmitter, insert the batteries in the Weather Station. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly and a short signal tine will sound. Following the indoor temperature/humidity and the time as 12:00 will be displayed. If these information are not displayed on the LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries from both units and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them. 4. The outdoor temperature and humidity data from the first transmitter (channel 1) should then be displayed on the Weather Station. Also, the signal reception icon will be displayed. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units

and reset from step 1. Insert the batteries in the second transmitter as soon as the outdoor temperature and humidity readings from the first transmitter are displayed on the Weather Station. Note : User shall insert the batteries into the second transmitter within 45 seconds after the Weather Station displays the information of the first transmitter. The outdoor temperature and humidity from the second transmitter and the "channel 2" icon should then be displayed on the Weather Station. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and reset from step 1. Insert the batteries in the third transmitter as soon as the "channel 2" icon and outdoor data are displayed on the Weather Station. Then within 2 minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third transmitter will be displayed and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the third transmitter is successfully received. If this is not happen, user shall restart the setting up from step 1. Note : User shall insert the batteries into the third transmitter within 45 seconds after the Weather Station displays the information of the first transmitter. Or immediately after reception of the second transmitter is finished. In order to ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission however, the distance between the Weather Station and the transmitter should not be more than 330 feet (100 meters) (see notes on Positioning and 915 MHz Reception).
IMPORTANT: Transmission problems will arise if the setting for additional sensors is not followed as described above. Should transmission problems occur, it is necessary to remove the batteries from all units and start again the set-up from step 1. Note:
If the signal reception is not successful on the first frequency of 915MHz for 45 seconds, the frequency is changed to 920MHz and the learning is tried for another 45 seconds. If it is still not successful the reception is tried for 45 seconds on 910MHz. This will also be done during re-synchronization. When the weather station is receiving the WWVB time signal, the outdoor transmitter data signal will temporarily not be received by the weather station. During this short period of time, the outdoor readings shown on the weather station will not be renewed until the WWVB time signal is successfully received.

TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE WEATHER STATION
The Weather Station uses 3 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: 1. Insert finger or other solid object in the space at the bottom center of the battery compartment and lift up to remove the cover. 2. Insert batteries observing the correct polarity (see marking). 3. Replace compartment cover.
TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE THERMOHYGRO TRANSMITTER
The Thermo-hygro transmitter uses 2 x AA, IEC, LR6, 1.5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: 1. Remove the cover. 2. Insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity (see marking). 3. Replace the battery cover.
Note: In the event of changing batteries in any of the units, all units need to be reset by following the setting up procedures. This is due to a random security code assigned by the transmitter at start-up. This code must be received and stored by the Weather Station in the first 3 minutes of power being supplied to the transmitter.

BATTERY CHANGE:

It is recommended to replace the batteries in all units regularly to ensure optimum accuracy of these units (Battery life see Specifications below). Please participate in the preservation of the environment. Return used batteries to an authorized depot.

RESETTING

The Weather Station and the Thermo-hygro transmitter need to be reset when one of the following conditions occur: Unsuccessful 915MHz signal reception.
Malfunction on the units. Batteries replacement.
For resetting, remove all batteries from the units. Wait at least for 1 minute before powering up the Weather station again. Proceed from step 1 in Setting Up.
ATOMIC TIME - WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and TechnologyTime and Frequency Division) WWVB radio station is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado, and transmits the exact time signal continuously throughout the United States at 60 kHz. The signal can be received up to 2,000 miles away through the internal antenna in the Weather Station. However, due to the nature of the Earths Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours. The wireless weather station will search for a signal every night when reception is best. The WWVB radio station receives the time data from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado. A team of atomic physicists is continually measuring every second, of every day, to an accuracy of ten billionths of a second per day. These physicists have created an international standard, measuring a second as 9,192,631,770 vibrations of a Cesium-133 atom in a vacuum. For more detail, visit http://www.boulder.nist.gov/timefreq.htm. To listen to the NIST time, call (303)499-7111. This number will connect you to an automated time, announced at the top of the minute in Coordinated Universal Time, which is also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). This time does not follow Daylight Saving Time changes. After the top of the minute, a tone will sound for every second. It is possible that your wireless weather station will not be exactly on the second due to the variance in the quartz. However, the clock will adjust the quartz timing over the course of several days to be very accurate; under 0.10 seconds per day.

WEATHER FORECAST AND WEATHER TENDENCY: WEATHER FORECASTING ICONS:
Weather icons in the third section of LCD can be displayed in any of the following combinations:
FORECAST FORECAST FORECAST
Cloudy with sunny intervals
For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. If the icons do not change, then it means either the air pressure has not changed or the change has been too slow for the Weather station to register. However, if the icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no change of icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse (with rainy icon) since the icons are already at their extremes. The icons displayed forecasts the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For example, if the current weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the product is faulty because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy. Note: After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 12-24 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast. Common to weather forecasting, absolute accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The weather forecasting feature is estimated to have an accuracy level of about 75% due to the varying areas the Weather station has been designed for use. In areas that experience sudden changes in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the Weather station will be more accurate compared to use in areas where the weather is stagnant most of the time (for example mostly sunny). If the Weather station is moved to another location significantly higher or lower than its initial standing point (for example from the ground floor to the upper floors of a house), discard the weather forecast for the next 12-24

SETTING UP:

When one Sensor is used 1. First, insert the batteries into the temperature sensor. (see Install and replace batteries in the temperature sensor). 2. Immediately after and within 30 seconds, insert the batteries into Temperature Station (see Install and replace batteries in the Temperature Station). Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Following the 6
time as 12:00 and the indoor temperature will be displayed. If these are not displayed after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 10 seconds before reinserting them. After inserting the batteries into the sensor, the Temperature Station will start receiving data from the sensor. The outdoor temperature and the signal reception icon should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. If this does not happen after 5 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1. In order to ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission however, there should be no more than 330 feet (100 meters) between the final position of the Temperature Station and the sensor (see notes on Mounting and 915 MHz Reception). Once the remote temperature has been received and displayed on the Temperature Station, the WWVB time code reception is automatically started. This takes typically between 3-5 minutes in good conditionsbut may take up to 4 nights.

When more than one sensor is to be used 1. User shall remove all the batteries from the Temperature Station and sensors and wait 60 seconds if setting has been done with one sensor before. 2. Insert the batteries to the first sensor. 3. Within 30 seconds of powering up the first sensor, insert the batteries into to the Temperature Station. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will 7
light up briefly. Following time as 12:00 and the indoor temperature will be displayed. If they are not shown in LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them. The outdoor temperature from the first sensor (channel 1) should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. Also, the signal reception icon will be displayed. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1. Insert the battery into the second sensor immediately after (within 10 seconds after) the reading form the first sensor is shown on LCD. The outdoor temperature from the second sensor and the "channel 2" icon should then be displayed on the Temperature Station. If this does not happen after 2 minute, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and reset from step 1. Insert the batteries into the third sensor immediately after (within 10 seconds after) ithe reading from the second sensor is shown on LCD. Then within 2 minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third sensor will be displayed and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the third sensor is successfully received. If this is not happen, user shall restart the setting up from step 1. In order to ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission there should be a distance of no more than 330 feet (100 meters) between the final position of the Temperature Station and the sensor (see notes on Mounting and 915 MHz Reception). 8
Transmission problems will arise if the setting for additional sensors is not followed as described above. Should transmission problems occur, it is necessary to remove the batteries from all units and follow the set-up from step 1. If the signal reception is not successful on the first frequency (915MHz) for 45 seconds, the frequency is changed to 920MHz and the learning is tried for another 45 seconds. If still not successful the reception is tried for 45 seconds on 910MHz. This will also be done for re-synchronization. Once the remote temperature has been received and displayed on the Temperature Station, the WWVB time code reception is automatically started. This takes typically between 3-5 minutes in good conditions.

Note: When 24 h mode display is selected, the calendar format will be "date and month" display. When 12 h mode display is selected, the calendar format will be "month and date" display.

915 MHz RECEPTION

The Temperature Station should receive the temperature data within 5 minutes after set-up. If the temperature data is not received 5 minutes after setting up (not successfully continuously, the outdoor display shows - - - ), please check the following points: 1. The distance of the Temperature Station or sensor should be at least 5 to 6.5 feet (1.5 to 2 meters) away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets. 2. Avoid positioning the Temperature Station onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames. 3. Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the same signal frequency (915MHz) may prevent correct signal transmission and reception. 4. Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 915MHz signal frequency can also cause interference. Note: When the 915MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the sensor or Temperature Station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see Setting up 31
above) otherwise transmission problems may occur. The transmission range is about 330 feet (100 m) from the sensor to the Temperature Station (in open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. If no reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to be reset (see Setting up).

MOUNTING

POSITIONING THE TEMPERATURE STATION: The Temperature Station has been designed to be hung onto wall or free standing. To wall mount Choose a sheltered place. Avoid direct rain and sunshine. Before wall mounting, please check that the outdoor temperature values can be received from the desired locations. 1. 2. Fix a screw (not supplied) into the desired wall, leaving the head extended out the by about 5mm. Remove the stand from the Temperature Station by pulling it away from the base and hang the station onto the screw. Remember to ensure that it locks into place before releasing.
