DEACTIVATING REMOTE SENSOR
I
CLEARING BASE STATION MEMORY
A
remotesensor is deactivated once the batteriesare removed from the unit.
Once a remotesensor isdeactivated,the base station’s memory
of
the remote
temperature needs to be cleared. Ifthis is notdone, the lasttemperature
of
the remotesensorwill continueto show on the base station even though
that remotesensor has beendeactivated.
Pressthe RESET buttonon the back
of
the basestation to clear the registration
of a remotesensorthat will no longerbe in use. Holdthe buttonfor
approximately
5
seconds untilthe basestation beeps and
‘I---
F”is displayed
in the lower
LCD.
The basestation is now readyto accept registrationfrom
a new remotesensor.
REMOTE SENSOR TRANSMISSION
The tower icon
on
the remotesensor
LCD
will blinkfor each RF temperature
transmission. The
sensor
is
designedwith a battery saving mode.
Transmissionto the base stationoccurs every2.5 minutes when the
temperaturechange is lessthan
0.3
degrees Fahrenheit. Wheneverthe
temperaturechange is more than
0.3
degrees Fahrenheit,the signalwill be
transmitted instantlyto the basestation. Iftransmission has not been made to
the base stationwithin 11 minutes,
‘I---
I’
will be displayed onthe basestation
LCD.
Try rotatingthe remotesensor in 45 degree steps to resolvethe
transmission problem. Wait at least
3
minutesafter each positionchange to
determine iftransmissionhas been restoredin the new position.
If
not, continue
rotationor repositionboth the base stationand remote sensor until successful
transmission.
Note: When the temperaturefalls belowfreezing point,the batteries
of
the
remotesensor willfreeze if left outside. This will lowertheir voltage supply and
the effective range. It
is
best infreezingconditionsto keep the remotesensor
indoorsand usethe probeto measure outdoortemperature.
