NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing, the
batteries in the outdoor remote sensor may have reduced
voltage supply and a shorter effective range. We
recommend using lithium batteries at temperatures of
32°F (0°C) and below.
GETTING STARTED
WEATHER DISPLAY
After batteries are installed; remote sensor will transmit
temperature and humidity data at 45 second intervals. The
main unit may take up to two minutes to receive the initial
readings. Upon successful reception, remote temperature
will appear under the weather forecast section of the main
unit’s display (the default remote channel is channel one).
The main unit will automatically update readings at 45-
second intervals.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
REMOTE SENSOR
NOTE: Install the batteries; select the channel and
temperature in °C or °F before mounting the remote
sensor.
After communication between the main unit and remote
sensor has been established, secure the remote sensor in
the desired location.
• Remove the screws from the battery compartment with a
small Phillips screwdriver.
• Set the channel. The switch is located in the battery
compartment. Channel 1 is typically selected if only one
remote sensor is being used.
If no signal is received from the remote sensor within two
minutes, dashes [- - -] will be displayed. Press and hold the
DOWN ( ) button on the main unit for two seconds to
initiate another signal search.
• Install 2 “AAA” size alkaline batteries (not included)
matching the polarities shown in the battery compartment.
• Replace the battery compartment door and secure the
screws.
PLACEMENT OF THE UNITS
The main unit can be placed on any flat surface indoors.
The remote sensor can be placed indoors or outdoors, on
a flat surface or mounted on the wall.
• Secure the remote sensor in the desired location.
MAIN UNIT
• Remove the battery compartment door.
• Install 2 batteries (UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V) matching
the polarity as shown in the battery compartment.
• Replace the battery compartment door.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
A low-battery indicator [ ] will appear next to the indoor
or remote data reading line of the main unit warning that
the corresponding batteries need replacement.

REMOTEAND INDOOR TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY
The remote temperature and humidity information line is
located right below the weather forecast line of the main
unit’s display.
PROGRAMMABLE TEMPERATURE ALARM
This product allows manual programming of a HIGH and
LOW temperature alarms for all three remote channels at
the same time. Once the actual remote temperature will
reach the pre-set high or low limits, the alarm will sound.
The alarm can be set for temperature readings between -58 °F
and 158°F.

NOTE: The weather forecast accuracy is approximately 70%.
The main unit display shows forecasted (predicted) not
current conditions. The SUNNY icon indicates clear
weather, even when displayed during the night-time.
COMFORT LEVEL INDICATORS
This product is capable of detecting and displaying the
current indoor comfort levels of surrounding environment.
The comfort level is displayed on the weather station portion
of the main unit’s display. It is based on the combination of
the current indoor temperature and humidity readings.
There are following comfort levels may be displayed:
COMFORT (comfortable); WET (wet) and DRY (dry)
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM READINGS
The maximum and minimum record of the indoor and
remote temperature and humidity will be automatically
stored in the memory of the main unit (receiver).
To display the minimum, maximum or the current reading
press MEM button.

WEATHER FORECAST
This unit is capable of detecting the atmospheric pressure
changes. Based on collected weather data, it forecasts the
weather for the next 12 to 24 hours.
If there is no reception, please perform the following steps:
• Bring the main unit and remote sensor close together.
• Remove four (4) small screws from the back of the
remote sensor with small Phillips screwdriver, and open
the battery compartment.

• Remove the batteries from the main unit and reinstall
them in the same manner.
• Make sure the unit is positioned at 8 feet (2 meters)
distance from any interference source such as a TV,
computer monitor, microwave, etc.
• On the main unit select the same channel number using
CHANNEL button as set on the remote sensor. The
remote temperature and humidity appeared on the main
unit’s display will show that transmission is being received
successfully.
• Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office
buildings, the received signal may be weakened. Always
place the Weather Forecaster near the window for better
reception.
TRANSMISSION COLLISION
ATOMIC CLOCK
Signals from the other household devices such as wireless
doorbells, home security systems, and entry control, may
interfere with this product or cause temporary reception
interruption. This is normal and will not affect the general
performance of the product. The transmission and
reception of the temperature and humidity readings will
resume once the interference subsides.
Immediately after establishing communication between the
main unit and remote sensor, the atomic time signal receiver
will open and start to search for the atomic time signal.
The search usually takes between 5-8 minutes.
NOTE: Do not press any buttons on the main unit during
auto search as it may interrupt product’s operation,
and you will need to start set up procedure again.
Once the atomic time signal is received, the date and time
will be set automatically, and the [ ] icon will appear.
NOTE: It is necessary to set your Time Zone, having in
mind that the default zone is a US Pacific Standard
Time (PST). (Refer to MANUAL SETTINGS section)
If the time signal has not been received in 8 minutes, you
may use the MODE button to set the time and date
manually. (Refer to the MANUAL SETTINGS section).
After the clock is set manually, place the Weather
Forecaster by the window for the better reception. The
atomic clock receiver is programmed that it will continue
to search for the atomic time signal daily for every hour
between 1:00 am and 4:30 am.
WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology)
radio station (WWVB) is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado.
It transmits an exact time signal continuously throughout
the most of the continental United States at 60 KHz frequency.
The Long-Range Weather Forecaster can receive this
WWVB signal through the internal antenna from up to
2,000 miles away. Due to the nature of the Earth’s ionosphere,
reception can be limited during the daylight hours. The radio
controlled clock will search for an alternate station that
receives the atomic time signal from the NIST Atomic clock
in Boulder, Colorado.
The WWVB tower icon on the unit’s display will flash
indicating a radio signal reception from the WWVB
station. If the tower icon is not fully lit, or if the time and
date are not set automatically, please consider the
following:
Once the time signal has been successfully received, the
time and date will be updated automatically.
TIME AND CALENDAR DISPLAY MODES
The Long-Range Weather Forecaster displays current time
in two display modes – in hour-minutes-seconds format
and in hour-minutes-day.
• During night-time hours, atmospheric disturbances are
typically less severe and radio signal reception may
improve. A single daily reception is sufficient enough to
keep the clock accuracy within 1 second.
The date is displayed in month-date format.
