This image displays the complete ThermoPro TP211B system, featuring the indoor receiver unit on the left and the floating water temperature transmitter on the right. Both units are white with blue accents and digital displays.

3.1. Transmitter (Floating Unit)

• IPX8 Waterproof: Designed to withstand continuous immersion in water.
• High-Precision Sensor: Provides accurate temperature readings.
• Integrated Display: Shows the current water temperature directly on the unit.
• Rope Attachment Point: Allows for securing the transmitter to prevent drifting.

3.2. Receiver (Indoor Unit)

• Large Backlit LCD Display: Easy to read temperature and humidity data, even in low light.
• Indoor Temperature & Humidity: Displays ambient conditions where the receiver is placed.
• Water Temperature Display: Shows the temperature from the floating transmitter.
• 24-Hour Max/Min Records: Tracks highest and lowest temperatures and humidity over a 24-hour period.
• Comfort Indicator: Visually indicates if water temperature is Hot, Comfort, or Cool.
• Multiple Placement Options: Features a tabletop stand, wall mount hole, and magnet for versatile placement.

4. Setup

The ThermoPro TP211B is designed for hassle-free setup, with the transmitter and receiver pre-paired for immediate use. Follow these steps to get started:

1. Install Batteries in Transmitter:

   Open the battery compartment of the floating transmitter. Insert 2 x AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). Close the compartment firmly, aligning the marks on the edges of the upper and lower parts to ensure IPX8 waterproof performance.

   

   Figure 4.1: Transmitter Battery Installation and Sealing

   This image shows the process of installing 2 AAA batteries into the floating transmitter and ensuring the unit is properly sealed by aligning the metal parts and alignment marks for waterproof integrity.

2. Install Batteries in Receiver:

   Open the battery compartment on the back of the indoor receiver. Insert 2 x AAA batteries, observing correct polarity. Close the compartment.

3. Synchronization:

   The transmitter and receiver are pre-paired. Once batteries are installed in both units, they should automatically synchronize. If synchronization does not occur, press and hold the "CH/SYNC" button on the receiver for 3 seconds to re-synchronize.
4. Placement of Transmitter:

   Place the floating transmitter in the water body you wish to monitor (pool, hot tub, pond, etc.). You can use the included rope to secure it to a fixed point to prevent it from drifting into skimmers or other areas.

5. Placement of Receiver:

   Place the receiver indoors in a cool, shaded location, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, to ensure accurate indoor temperature and humidity readings. The receiver offers three placement options:

   • Tabletop Stand: Use the integrated stand to place it on a flat surface.
   • Wall Mount: Utilize the hanging hole on the back to mount it on a screw.
   • Magnet: The back of the receiver has a magnet for attachment to metallic surfaces like a refrigerator.
