Once paired, the receiver will display the indoor temperature and humidity, along with the water temperature from the transmitter.
Operating Instructions
Display Overview
- Indoor Temperature: Displays the ambient temperature around the receiver.
- Humidity: Shows the indoor humidity level.
- Channel Select (CH): Indicates the channel of the connected sensor. Up to three sensors can be paired.
- Water Temperature: Displays the temperature from the floating sensor.
- Comfort Indicator: Provides a quick visual cue for water comfort levels (HOT, COMFORT, COOL).
- Trend Indicator: Arrows (↗, →, ↘) show whether temperature and humidity are increasing, steady, or decreasing.
Button Functions
- CH/SYNC: Press to switch between sensor channels (if multiple sensors are used). Press and hold for 3 seconds to synchronize with a new or existing sensor.
- ℃/℉: Press to switch the temperature display between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
- MAX/MIN/CLEAR: Press to view the maximum and minimum temperature/humidity records for the last 24 hours or all time. Press and hold to clear the records.
- Light Bulb Icon: Activates the backlight for easy reading in dim conditions.
Water Comfort Levels
- HOT: Water temperature ≥ 84°F (29°C)
- COMFORT: Water temperature between 77°F and 84°F (25°C and 29°C)
- COOL: Water temperature ≤ 77°F (25°C)
Maintenance
- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries in both the receiver and transmitter when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Ensure to use 2 x AAA batteries for each unit.
- Cleaning: Wipe the units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the receiver in water. The transmitter is IPX8 waterproof and can be submerged.
- Storage: If storing the thermometer for an extended period, remove all batteries to prevent leakage. Store in a dry place at room temperature.
- Waterproof Seal: Always ensure the transmitter's battery compartment is securely closed and sealed to maintain its IPX8 waterproof rating.
Troubleshooting
- No Reading on Receiver / '---' Displayed:
-
- Ensure batteries are correctly installed in both the receiver and transmitter.
- Check if the batteries are depleted and replace them if necessary.
- Move the receiver closer to the transmitter. The maximum transmission range is 500 feet in an open environment, but obstacles can reduce this.
- Resynchronize the units by holding the 'CH/SYNC' button on the receiver for 3 seconds.
- Inaccurate Temperature Readings:
-
- Ensure the transmitter is fully submerged in the water for accurate water temperature readings.
- Verify that the transmitter's waterproof seal is intact and no water has entered the battery compartment.
- Compare readings with another reliable thermometer to confirm accuracy.
- Display is Dim or Unresponsive:
-
- Replace the batteries in the affected unit.
- Ensure the unit is not exposed to extreme temperatures outside its operating range.
