868 MHz RECEPTION CHECK
The weather station should receive the temperature data within 3 minutes after set-up. If the
temperature data is not received 3 minutes after setting up (not successfully continuously,
the outdoor display shows “- - -” ), please check the following points:
1. The distance of the weather station or transmitter should be at least 1.5 to 2 meters
away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets.
2. Avoid positioning the weather station onto or in the immediate proximity of metal
window frames.
3. Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the
same signal frequency (868MHz) may prevent correct signal transmission and
reception.
4. Neighbours using electrical devices operating on the 868MHz signal frequency can
also cause interference.
Note:
When the 868MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the
temperature transmitter or weather station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts
and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see Setting up
above) otherwise transmission problems may occur.
The transmission range is about 100 m from the temperature transmitter to the weather
station (in open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and
interference levels. If no reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all
