4.3. Pairing the Remote Sensor

The main unit and remote sensor should automatically pair once both are powered on. If pairing does not occur:

1. Ensure both units have fresh batteries or are properly powered.
2. Place the remote sensor near the main unit.
3. Press the 'CH' (Channel) button on the back of the main unit to cycle through channels until the sensor's data appears.

4.4. Placement

For optimal performance, consider the following placement guidelines:

• Main Display Unit: Place indoors in a central location, away from direct sunlight or heat sources that could affect indoor temperature readings. It can be placed on a tabletop using its built-in stand or mounted on a wall using the hanging hole.
• Remote Sensor: Place outdoors in a shaded area, protected from direct rain and sunlight, which can cause inaccurate readings. Ensure it is within the 500-foot transmission range of the main unit. Avoid placing it near large metal objects or electrical appliances that could interfere with the wireless signal.
