UNIT LOCATION

Main Indoor temperature area

Remote Outdoor temperature area

REMOTE SENSOR

The sensor collects temperature readings approx.

every 40 seconds and sends them to the main unit. The

main unit can collect data from up to 3 sensors.

To set up the sensor:

1. Slide open the battery door.

2. Insert the batteries, matching the polarity (+ / -).

Press RESET after each battery change.

3. Select a channel. Make sure you use a different

channel for each sensor.

4. Close the battery compartment.

5. Secure the sensor in the desired location using the

wall mount or table stand.

For best results:

• Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture.

• Do not place the sensor more than 30 meters (100

feet) from the main (indoor) unit.

• Position the sensor so that it faces the main (indoor)

unit, minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls,

and furniture.

RAR681_M_EN_R1.indd 4 2006.6.21 3:37:33 PM

• 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).

SENSOR DATA TRANSMISSION

The reception icon in the outdoor temperature area

shows the status.

ICON DESCRIPTION

RISING STEADY FALLING

ICE WARNING

If the channel 1 sensor falls between 3°C to -2°C

(37°F to 28°F), ﬂashes to warn you that the

temperature is approaching freezing.

NOTE The warning will automatically stop if the

temperature goes outside the ice-warning range.

RAR681_M_EN_R1.indd 6 2006.6.21 3:37:38 PM

HI / LO TEMPERATURE ALARM

An alarm can be set to sound if the sensor set to

channel 1 records above or below a temperature of

your choice.

To set alarm ON / OFF:

1. Press and hold TEMP HI / LO .

2. Use or to select high temperature, press

TEMP HI / LO to conﬁrm.

3. Use or to select low temperature, press

TEMP HI / LO to conﬁrm.

4. Press to activate or deactivate the high / low

temperature alarm.

To silence the hi / lo temperature alarm:

Press any key. The alarm resets automatically and will
