USER'S MANUAL

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the RMR232PHN/

RMR232PHU,anIn-OutThermometerwithRadio-ControlledClock

and a Photo Frame attached.

The basic package comes with the following:

-- Main unit (RMR232PHN/RMR232PHU).

-- Remote thermo sensor unit

-- Blue and metallic grey exchangeable front key panels.

The main unit shows the indoor temperature, calendar clock and

temperatures collected and transmitted by the remote unit.

The main unit is also capable of keeping track of the maximum and

minimum temperature measured. No wire installation is required

and the RMR232PHN/RMR232PHU operates at 433MHz.

As for the calendar clock, it is radio-controlled. It automatically

synchronizes its current time and date when it is brought within an

approximate 1500km radius of the radio signal generated from

Frankfurt, Germany (DCF77). (MSF 60 for UK Version)

You can also set the calendar clock manually when it is off range.

Other features include five-language display and two-minute

crescendo daily alarm.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

For best operation,

1. Insert batteries for remote units before doing so for the main

unit.

2. Place the main unit as close as possible next to the remote unit,

reset the main unit after installing batteries. This will ensure

easier synchronization between the transmission and reception

of signals.

3. Position the remote unit and main unit within effective

transmission range, which, in usual circumstances, is 20 to 30

meters.

Note that the effective range is vastly affected by the building

materials and where the main and remote units are positioned. Try

various set-ups for best result.

Though the remote units are weather proof, they should be placed

away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.

BATTERYINSTALLATION: MAIN UNIT

1. Slide open the battery compartment door.

2. Install 2 alkaline batteries (UM3 or “AA” size 1.5V) strictly

according to the polarities shown.

3. Press the [RESET] button.

4. Replace the battery compartment door.

BATTERYINSTALLATION: REMOTE UNIT

1. Remove the screws on the battery compartment.

2. Lift and open the photo frame cover.

3. Align and place the photo on the velvet surface.

4. Close the photo frame cover and replace it back to the main

unit.

2. Install 2 alkaline batteries (MU-3 or “AA” size 1.5 V) strictly

according to the polarities shown.

3. Replace the battery compartment door and secure its screws.

LOW BATTERY WARNING

When it is time to replace batteries, the respective low-battery

indicator will show up on the indoor or outdoor temperature display.

HOW TO INSERT A PHOTO

1. Push the [UNLOCK] button to unlock and take out the photo

frame drawer.

HOW TO USE THE TABLE STAND OR

WALL MOUNTING

The main unit has a table stand which can support the unit on a flat

surface. Or you can mount the unit on a wall using the recessed

screw hole.

As for the remote unit, you can place it on a flat surface or mount

the unit on a wall using the recessed screw hole.

HOW TO CHECK REMOTE AND INDOOR

TEMPERATURES

The indoor temperature is shown on the second line of the display.

The outdoor temperature is shown on the top line of the display.

The kinetic wave display on the outdoor temperature indicates if

the reception of the remote unit is in good order.

If no readings are received from the remote unit for more than four

minutes, blanks “ ” will be displayed until further readings are

successfully searched. Check if the remote unit is sound and secure.

You can wait for a little while or press [ ] and [ ] simultaneously

to enforce an immediate search.

If the temperature goes above or below than the temperature

measuring range of the main unit or the remote unit (stated in

specification), the display will show “HHH” or “LLL”.

HOW TO READ THE KINETIC WAVE

DISPLAY

The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the

main unit. There are three possible forms:

THE RESET BUTTON

This button is only used when the unit is operating in an unfavorable

way or malfunctioning. Use a blunt stylus to hold down the button.

All settings will return to their default values.

GETTING STARTED

Once batteries are in place for the remote unit, they will start

transmitting temperature readings at 78-second intervals.

The main unit will also start searching for signals for about four

minutes once batteries are installed. Upon successful reception, the

outdoor temperature will be displayed on the top line and the indoor

temperature on the second line. The main unit will automatically

update its readings at about 78-second intervals.

If no signals are received, blanks " " will be displayed and the

kinetic wave icon will show “ “. Press [ ] and [ ]

simultaneously to enforce another search for about 4 minutes. This

is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of the

remote and main units.

MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM

TEMPERATURES

The maximum and minimum recorded indoor and outdoor

temperatures will be automatically stored in memory. To display

them, press [ MEM ] once to display the maximum temperature

and again the minimum temperature. The respective indicators,

[ MAX or MIN ] will be displayed.

To clear the memory, hold down [ MEM ] for two seconds. The

maximum and minimum temperatures will be erased. If you press

[ MEM ] now, the maximum and minimum temperatures will have

the same values as the current ones until different readings are

recorded.

DISCONNECTED SIGNALS

If without obvious reasons the display of the outdoor temperature

goes blank, press [ ] and [ ] to enforce an immediate search.

If that fails, check:

1. The remote unit is still in place.

2. The batteries of both the remote unit and main unit. Replace as

necessary.

Note:When the temperature falls below freezing point, the batteries

of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their voltage supply

and the effective range.

3. The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles

and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary.

TRANSMISSION COLLISION

Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home

security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of this

product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is normal and

does not affect the general performance of the product. The

transmissionand reception of temperature readingswill resume once

the interference recedes.

NOTE ON °C AND °F

The unit of temperature display can be selected by pressing °C / °F

button repeatedly.

Temperature readings are

securely registered.

The unit is in searching mode.

No signals.

CALENDAR CLOCK DISPLAY MODES

The clock and the calendar share the same section of the display.

The calendar is displayed in a day-month format.

CLOCK MODE

CALENDAR MODE

Each press on the [ MODE ] button will toggle the display between

clock and calendar mode.

ABOUT RADIO RECEPTION

The RMR232PHN/RMR232PHU is designed to automatically

synchronize its calendar clock once it is brought within range of the

Frankfurt DCF77 radio signal.(MSF for UK Version)

When the RMR232PHN/RMR232PHU is within range, its radio-

control mechanism will override all manual settings unless auto-

reception of radio signal has been deactivated.

When the unit is receiving radio signal, the radio reception signal

will start to blink. A complete reception generally takes about 2 to

10 minutes, depending on the strength of the radio signal.

When the reception is complete, the radio reception signal will stop

blinking. The strength of the reception for the last full hour will be

indicated.

For better reception, place the clock away from metal objects and

electrical appliances to minimize interference.

If you wish to disable the auto-reception feature, press the [ ]

button for two seconds. The radio reception signal will disappear.

The unit will not respond to radio signals.

To enable the feature again, press the [ ] button for two seconds.

The radio reception signal will start blinking to initiate reception

automatically.
