EARTH FRIENDLY

Oregon Scientic™ proudly presents +ECO Clima Control,

an environmental-friendly weather-monitoring clock that

converts solar energy into its source of power via a solar

panel. Convenient and easy to use, you only need to lift the

solar panel and face it directly towards the sun for a few

hours in order to receive the amount of energy necessary

to power the device.

GETTING STARTED

SOLAR PANEL

This product uses a 600mAH rechargeable battery which

should be charged via the solar panel. For the battery’s rst

charge, it is strongly advised to charge it for at least 12 hours

by lifting and positioning the solar panel in such a way that it

faces sunlight directly.

IMPORTANT The solar panel should be lifted and

positioned at no more than 90°.

600mAH

rechargeable

battery

When the rechargeable battery is nearly at, the LED

indicator on the main unit and will ash. Expose the solar

panel directly to sunlight for approximately 5 to 6 hours to

charge the battery. Normally, the battery life will last for 2

months.

TIPS

• For best results when charging the battery, avoid

placing the product behind glass windows, but expose

the solar panel directly to sunlight.

• Do not scratch the solar panel’s surface or wipe it with

strong detergent.

• Do not expose the solar panel to rain, snow or

moisture.

• The duration of the rechargeable battery’s charging or

operating time is determined by either the intensity of

sunlight or the positioning of the solar panel towards

the sun.

BACKUP POWER

CR2032 batteries

In the case when the rechargeable battery is at or nearly

at, the 2 pieces of CR2032 batteries can act as backup

power supply for the main unit.

1. Remove the battery compartment.

2. Insert the batteries, matching the polarities.

3. Press RESET after each battery change.

2 x CR2032

NAME TAGS

Name tags can be inserted in the main unit as in Fig. 1.

There are 10 name tags provided in this package, with 7

blank tags and 3 tags printed as “MAIN UNIT”, “TIME” and

“CALENDAR”. You can write in the blank tags the name of

the location where THGR122N and other optional sensors

are installed.

NOTE If optional sensors are installed, “CALENDAR” and

“TIME” tags will be replaced.

REMOTE SENSORS

This product can work with up to 4 sensors at any one time

to capture temperature and relative humidity readings in

various locations.

2 remote sensors (THGN500 and THGR122N) are provided

in this package, while 2 more optional wireless remote

sensors can be purchased separately.

Optional wireless remote sensors such as those listed below

can be purchased separately:

- THGR122N / THGN122N

- THGN132N

- THGR228N / THGN228N

- THGR238N / THGN238N

To set up the remote sensor:

1. Open the battery compartment and insert batteries,

matching the polarity.

2. Select a channel then press RESET.

3. Close the battery door.

4. Place the remote sensor within 30 m (98 ft) from the

main unit.

NOTE Use alkaline batteries for longer usage and consumer

grade lithium batteries in temperatures below freezing.

To search for a sensor:

Press and hold + at the same time.

The remote sensor reception icon will show the following

status:

ICON DESCRIPTION

Main unit is searching

for sensor(s).

A channel has been

found.

The sensor cannot be

found.

TIP The transmission range may vary depending on many

factors. You may need to experiment with various locations

to get the best results.

CLOCK AND CALENDAR

NOTE If optional sensors are installed:

• clock and calendar display will be replaced by

temperature/humidity readings.

• press to toggle between clock and temperature/

humidity display, or calendar and temperature/humidity

display.

CLOCK RECEPTION

This product is designed to synchronize its clock

automatically with a clock signal.

Collins, Colorado.

To enable / disable clock signal reception:

Press and hold to enable or to disable clock signal

reception.

NOTE Reception takes 2-10 minutes. If the signal is weak,

it can take up to 24 hours to get a valid signal. If signal

reception is unsuccessful, place your unit next to a window,

press and hold to force another signal search.

Clock signal reception indicator:

STRONG SIGNAL WEAK / NO SIGNAL

MANUALLY SET CLOCK

To set the clock manually, disable the clock signal reception

rst.

RMR500ES / RMR500ESU: Time zone sets the clock +/-

23 hours from the received clock signal time. If you have

deactivated the clock signal reception, do not set a value

for time zone.

RMR500ESA: Select the time zone: (0) Pacic, (+1)

Mountain, (+2) Central or (+3) Eastern.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY

To toggle temperature unit:

Press °C / °F.

NOTE “HH.H” or “LL.L” will be displayed when the received

temperature is out of the specied temperature range.
