Transmission Collision
Signals from other household devices, such as doorbells, home security systems and entry
controls, may interfere. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of this
product. The transmission will resume once the interference recedes.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
--Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
--Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Modifications not authorized by the manufacturer may void users authority to operate this
device.

Problem Solving
1. If the LCD readout on the base unit is faint, replace the batteries.
2. If outdoor temperature does not display on the base unit:
a) Remove and reinstall all batteries;
b) Use fresh batteries;
c) Place the rain collection cup sensor closer to the base unit;
d) Position the base and rain cup sensor so that the transmission path is free of any
obstacles, such as buildings, trees, etc. Try to have no more than 2 or 3 walls
between the units.
3. If synchronization is lost between the base unit and remote sensors:
a) The base unit displays “--.-C” or “---.in”.
b) Press “RE-SYNC on the base unit.
The base unit will search for the rain cup sensor signal for 3 minutes. If the outdoor
temperature does not display after 3 minutes, press “RE-SYNC” again. If attempts to
synchronize fail, check that there are no physical obstructions between the units that might
block transmissions, such as sheds or trees. If necessary, shorten the distance between the
receiver and remote units. Remove all the batteries from the units, wait at least 10 seconds,
and then install the batteries again. Repeat Set-Up instructions to re-synchronize the units.
