Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer w/Indoor/Outdoor Hygrometer
(630-1030) Operation Faxback Doc. # 61524
Once you install the batteries in the remote sensor and the main unit, the
remote sensor displays its local temperature and humidity and starts
transmitting signals about every 41 seconds. (house symbol) and the
temperature and humidity measured at the main unit appear.
Setting/Selecting the Display Channel
Your system's main unit can display information for up to three different
remote sensors. Additional remote sensors (Cat. No. 63-1031) are
available at your local RadioShack store.
Set CHANNEL 1/2/3 inside each remote sensor's battery compartment to a
different setting.

To display the temperature and humidity information for a specific remote
sensor, repeatedly press CHANNEL on the main unit until the desired
channel number appears. Repeatedly press IN/REMOTE to toggle between
viewing indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity information.
Once the main unit receives the remote sensor's signal, the temperature
and humidity readings for that sensor appear.
Note: If the remote unit does not receive or stops receiving a signal from
the remote sensor, - - - appears. If this happens, force a signal
search (see "Forcing a Signal Search" below) or reset the main unit
(see "Resetting the System" below).
Remote Sensor Scanning
You can set the main unit to automatically scan and display readings from
the remote sensors. The readings from each channel appear for about 4
seconds.
To scan the remote sensors, hold down CHANNEL for about 2 seconds. To
stop scanning, press any button.
Changing the Degree Format
You can view the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (F) or degrees Celsius
(C) on the main unit and on the remote sensor.
To change the degree format for all temperatures displayed on the main
unit, set C/F degrees on the back of the main unit to the desired setting.
To change the degree format displayed on the remote sensor, set C/F
degrees inside the remote sensor's battery compartment to the desired
setting.
Reading the Temperature and Humidity Trend Display
The main unit displays the current temperature and humidity trend as
rising, steady, or falling. The trend is based on the average temperature
measured at the selected channel's remote sensor within the last 30
minutes.
Note: If HHH degrees or LLL degrees appears, the temperature has exceeded
or fallen below the thermometer's measurement range (see
"Specifications" in Faxback Doc. # 61526). When the temperature
returns to within the measurement range, the display returns to
normal.
Reading the Comfort Level
ICON: MEANING:
(happy face with smiley mouth) Comfortable
(happy face with squiggly mouth) Wet
(happy face with straight mouth) Dry
The comfort level is based on the recorded relative humidity. An
indicator appears to show the comfort level.
Reading the Signal Status
The main unit displays the signal received status (directly above the
CHANNEL number).
If there are no arcs above the channel number, then the main unit is not
receiving a signal. One to three arcs indicate the main unit is searching
for and/or receiving a signal (from the selected channel's remote sensor).
Checking the Maximum/Minimum Temperatures or Humidities
The main unit stores the maximum (highest) and minimum (lowest) local
temperatures and humidities and those of each remote sensor in its memory.
1. Repeatedly press CHANNEL on the main unit to select the desired
channel.
2. Press MEM/CLEAR once to recall the maximum temperature and humidity
(MAX) and again to recall the minimum (MIN) temperature and humidity.
3. Press MEM/CLEAR again to return to the current temperature and
humidity display.
To clear the maximum and minimum temperature memory for the main unit and
the selected channel, and reset them to the current temperature, then hold
MEM/CLEAR for about 2 seconds. The display resets and the current
temperatures appear.
Using the Temperature and Humidity Alarm (For Channel 1)
You can set the thermometer's temperature and humidity alarm to sound when
the temperature or humidity at a remote sensor exceeds or falls below
upper and lower temperature and humidity limits you set.
When a remote sensor records a temperature or humidity reading that
matches one you set, the main unit sounds an alarm sound for about 1
minute, the main unit displays the information for that channel, and HI or
LO and the temperature or humidity flash. To silence the alarm sooner,
press any button on the main unit.
If a channel other than channel 1 is selected when the alarm sounds, the
display switches to channel 1 and the readings flash. The alarm sounds
for about 1 minute. To silence the alarm sooner, press any button on the
main unit.
The alarm sounds again if the current reading falls below the set limit,
then meets or exceeds the set limit again.
Note: If the main unit detects another set limit, the alarm continues to
sound for about 1 more minute.
Follow these steps to set the alarm.
1. Press HI/LO once to set the high temperature limit (HI flashes), twice
to set the high humidity limit (HI flashes), three times to set the
low temperature limit (LO flashes), or four times to set the low
humidity limit (LO flashes).
Note: If you do not press a button for about 16 seconds, the main unit
returns to normal display.
2. Repeatedly press /\ to increase the alarm temperature or humidity
setting 1.8 degrees F (1 degree C) at a time. Hold down /\ to increase
the setting in five degree increments.
Notes: When setting the alarm, the lower limit starts at - --- degrees
C (- --- degrees F) or the last set alarm temperature.
The lowest temperature limit you can set is -50 degrees C (-58
degrees F), and the highest limit you can set is +70 degrees C
(158 degrees F). When you press /\ after reaching the highest
limit, the range starts over at -50 degrees C (-58 degrees F).
The lowest humidity limit you can set is 2% and the highest
limit you can set is 98%. When you press /\ after reaching the
highest limit, the range starts over at 2%.
3. To turn off the alarm for the selected limit (HI or LO), press ON/OFF
ALARM so - --- appears.
4. Repeat Steps 2-3 to set another limit and turn its alarm on or off.
Press HI/LO to return to the current temperature and humidity display.
Forcing a Signal Search
To force a 3-minute signal search, hold down IN/REMOTE for about 2
seconds.
This is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of the
remote with the main unit.
Force a signal search whenever you find discrepancies between the reading
shown on the main unit and that on the respective remote unit.
Resetting the System
If the main unit stops operating properly, use a pointed object (such as a
straightened paper clip) to press RESET. This resets all display elements
and temperature settings.
If the remote sensor stops operating properly, use a pointed object (such
as a straightened paper clip) to press RESET inside the remote sensor's
battery compartment. This resets the displayed temperature and
reinitializes the sensor's transmitter.
