TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE 

THERMO-HYGRO TRANSMITTER 

The outdoor thermo-hygro transmitter uses 2 x AAA, IEC 

LR3, 1.5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, 

please follow the steps below: 

1. 

Remove the battery cover. 

2. 

Insert the batteries, observing the 

correct polarity (see battery 

compartment marking). 

3. 

Replace the battery cover on the unit.

Note: 

When changing batteries in any of the units, 

all units need to be reset by following the set 

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.

TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE 

WEATHER STATION 

The weather station uses 2 x AAA, IEC LR3, 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. 

BATTERY CHANGE: 

It is recommended to replace the batteries in all units on 

an annual basis to ensure optimum accuracy of these 

units. 

Please participate in the preservation of 

the environment. Return used batteries to 

an authorized depot. 

SET UP 

1. 

First, insert the batteries in the transmitter (see “To 

install and replace batteries in the thermo-hygro 

transmitter”above). Keep 5-10 feet from the 

display for 15 minutes during set up. 

2. 

Within 2 minutes of powering up the transmitter, 

insert the batteries in the Temperature Station (see 

“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. Following, 

the indoor temperature/humidity and the time, as 

12:00 will be displayed. If this information is 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 

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: 

When changing batteries in the units, ensure the batteries 

do not spring free from the contacts. Always wait at least 

15 minutes after removing the batteries before reinserting, 

otherwise start up and transmission problems may occur.
