GETTING STARTED

BATTERIES

Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity as

shown in the battery compartment. For best results,

install batteries in the remote sensor before the main

unit. Press RESET after each battery change.

Do not use rechargeable batteries.

NOTE

shows when batteries are low.

UNIT LOCATION

MainTemperature Area when

INDOOR temperature is

shown.

Remote Temperature Area when

OUTDOOR temperature is

shown.

CHANGE SETTINGS

1. Press and hold MODE for 2 seconds to enter setting

mode.

2. Press UP or DOWN to change settings.

3. Press MODE to confirm.

REMOTE SENSOR (THGR122NX)

This product is shipped with a THGR122NX Thermo/

Hygro Sensor that collects Temperature and Humidity

data. Data can be collected from up to 3 sensors.

Additional sensors sold separately.

3. Place the sensor near the main unit. Press RESET

on the sensor to initiate signal sending between the

sensor and the main unit. The reception icon on

the main unit will blink for approximately 3 minutes

while it is searching for the sensor. (Refer to the

Sensor Data Transmission section for more

information.)

4. Close the remote sensor battery compartment.

5. Secure the sensor in the desired location using the

wall mount or table stand.

SETUP SENSOR

Open the remote sensor battery compartment with a

small Phillips screwdriver.

1. Insert the batteries, matching the polarity as shown

in the battery compartment.

2. Set the channel. The switch is located in the

battery compartment.

SWITCH OPTION

Channel Channel 1 - 3. If you are using

more than one sensor, select a

different channel for each sensor.

RMR612HGA lab test R2 1/17/04, 4:58 PM6

For best results:

•Insert the batteries and select the channel and

temperature unit before you mount the sensor.

•Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and

moisture.

•Do not place the sensor more than 30 meters

(98 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.

•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.

You may need to experiment with various locations to

get the best results.

SEARCH FOR SENSOR

To search for a sensor, press and hold MEM and

CHANNEL for 2 seconds.

If the sensor is still not found, check the

batteries, obstructions, and remote unit location.

Signals from household devices such as

doorbells, electronic garage doors, and home security

systems may cause temporary reception failure. This is

normal and does not affect general product performance.

The reception will resume once the interference ends.

NOTE

DATA TRANSMISSION

Data is sent from the sensor(s) every 40 seconds.

The reception icon shown in the Temperature and

Humidity Areas shows the status.

--- shows in Temp/

Humidity Areas

ICON DESCRIPTION

Main unit is searching for

sensors.

At least 1 channel has

been found.

Channel 1 is selected (the
