User manual OREGON SCIENTIFIC RMR112

[. . . ] Note that the effective range is vastly affected by the building materials and where the main and remote units are positioned. Though the remote units are weather proof, they should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow. BATTERY AND CHANNEL INSTALLATION: REMOTE UNIT 1. Select the temperature display unit on the C/F slide switch. BEFORE YOU BEGIN For best operation, 1. Place the main unit as close as possible next to the remote unit, 3 4. [. . . ] If the temperature goes above or below than the temperature measuring range of the main unit or the remote unit (stated in wpecification), the display will show "HHH" or "LLL". GETTING STARTED Once batteries are in place for the remote units, they will start transmitting temperature readings at 30-second intervals. The main unit will also start searching for signals for about a minute once batteries are installed. Upon successful reception, the individual channel temperatures will be displayed on the top line and the indoors temperature on the bottom line. The main unit will automatically update its readings at about 30-second intervals. TEMPERATURE TREND If no signals are received, blanks "----" will be displayed and the kinetic wave icon will show " ". Press CHANNEL and MEMORY simultaneously to enforce another search for about 30 seconds. This is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of the remote and main units. Repeat this step whenever you find discrepancies between the reading shown on the main unit and that on the respective remote unit. The temperature trend indicator on the screen shows the trend of samplings collected at that particular remote site. Arrow indicator Temperature Trend 5 Rising Steady Falling GB GB HOW TO READ THE KINETIC WAVE DISPLAY The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the main unit. No signals. DISCONNECTED SIGNALS If without obvious reasons the display for a particular channel goes blank, press CHANNEL and MEMORY to enforce an immediate search. Note: When the temperature falls below freezing point, the batteries of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their voltage supply and the effective range. The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary. MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM TEMPERATURES The maximum and minimum recorded indoor temperatures and those of each channel will be automatically stored in memory. Press MEMORY once to display the maximum temperature and again the minimum temperature. If you press MEMORY now, the maximum and minimum temperatures will have the same values as the current ones until different readings are recorded. 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 transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume once the interference recedes. NOTE ON °C AND °F The unit of temperature display is selected on the °C/°F slide switch. Note that the remote temperature display on the main unit is dominated by the selection on the °C/°F slide switch of the main unit. Whatever the display units of the remote sensors are, they will be 6 automatically converted to the chosen one of the main unit. CALENDAR CLOCK DISPLAY MODES The RMR112 supports four display modes in the sequence of: MODE 1. Hour-Minute-Second (of local time) -------------------------------------------Day-Month (of local time) MODE 4. Hour-Minute-Day of the Week (of second time zone) ---------------------------------------------------------------Day-Month (of second time zone) Each press on the MODE button will toggle the display in the above order. Note: The bottom line of the display will be replaced by the alarm time if the [24HR OFF] button is pressed. MODE 2. [. . . ] The radio reception signal will start blinking to initiate reception automatically. When you are done, press MODE/SET to exit. The display will return to the mode last chosen. HOW TO SET AND ARM THE ALARMS The RMR112 has two alarms, ALARM 1 and ALARM 2. To set an alarm, HOW TO SET THE CLOCK MANUALLY To set the clock manually, hold MODE/SET for three seconds. Keep pressing the button will increase or decrease the value rapidly. 1. [. . . ]
