The basic package comes with the following:
-- Main unit (RMR232PHN/RMR232PHU).
-- Remote thermo sensor unit
H
I
-- Blue and metallic grey exchangeable front key panels.
The main unit shows the indoor temperature, calendar clock and
temperatures collected and transmitted by the remote unit.
P
J
The main unit is also capable of keeping track of the maximum and
minimum temperature measured. No wire installation is required
and the RMR232PHN/RMR232PHU operates at 433MHz.
As for the calendar clock, it is radio-controlled. It automatically
synchronizes its current time and date when it is brought within an
approximate 1500km radius of the radio signal generated from
Frankfurt, Germany (DCF77). (MSF 60 for UK Version)
You can also set the calendar clock manually when it is off range.
Other features include five-language display and two-minute
crescendo daily alarm.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
For best operation,
1. Insert batteries for remote units before doing so for the main
unit.
2. Place the main unit as close as possible next to the remote unit,
reset the main unit after installing batteries. This will ensure
easier synchronization between the transmission and reception
of signals.
3. Press the [RESET] button.
3. Position the remote unit and main unit within effective
transmission range, which, in usual circumstances, is 20 to 30
meters.
4. Replace the battery compartment door.
Note that the effective range is vastly affected by the building
materials and where the main and remote units are positioned. Try
various set-ups for best result.
BATTERY INSTALLATION: REMOTE UNIT
Though the remote units are weather proof, they should be placed
away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.
1. Remove the screws on the battery compartment.

THE RESET BUTTON
HOW TO CHECK REMOTE AND INDOOR
TEMPERATURES
This button is only used when the unit is operating in an unfavorable
way or malfunctioning. Use a blunt stylus to hold down the button.
All settings will return to their default values.
The indoor temperature is shown on the second line of the display.
The outdoor temperature is shown on the top line of the display.
The kinetic wave display on the outdoor temperature indicates if
the reception of the remote unit is in good order.
If no readings are received from the remote unit for more than four
minutes, blanks “ ” will be displayed until further readings are
successfully searched. Check if the remote unit is sound and secure.
You can wait for a little while or press [ ] and [ ] simultaneously
to enforce an immediate search.
GETTING STARTED
Once batteries are in place for the remote unit, they will start
transmitting temperature readings at 78-second intervals.
If the temperature goes above or below than the temperature
measuring range of the main unit or the remote unit (stated in
specification), the display will show “HHH” or “LLL”.
The main unit will also start searching for signals for about four
minutes once batteries are installed. Upon successful reception, the
outdoor temperature will be displayed on the top line and the indoor
temperature on the second line. The main unit will automatically
update its readings at about 78-second intervals.
HOW TO READ THE KINETIC WAVE
DISPLAY
The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the
main unit. There are three possible forms:
If no signals are received, blanks "
kinetic wave icon will show “
" will be displayed and the
“. Press [ ] and [
]
simultaneously to enforce another search for about 4 minutes. This
is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of the
remote and main units.

If that fails, check:
1. The remote unit is still in place.
The unit is in searching mode.
2. The batteries of both the remote unit and main unit. Replace as
necessary.
Temperature readings are
securely registered.
Note: When the temperature falls below freezing point, the batteries
of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their voltage supply
and the effective range.
No signals.
3. The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles
and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary.
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM
TEMPERATURES
TRANSMISSION COLLISION
The maximum and minimum recorded indoor and outdoor
temperatures will be automatically stored in memory. To display
them, press [ MEM ] once to display the maximum temperature
and again the minimum temperature. The respective indicators,
[ MAX or MIN ] will be displayed.
Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home
security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of this
product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is normal and
does not affect the general performance of the product. The
transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume once
the interference recedes.
To clear the memory, hold down [ MEM ] for two seconds. The
maximum and minimum temperatures will be erased. If you press
[ MEM ] now, the maximum and minimum temperatures will have
the same values as the current ones until different readings are
recorded.
NOTE ON °C AND °F
The unit of temperature display can be selected by pressing °C / °F
button repeatedly.
DISCONNECTED SIGNALS
If without obvious reasons the display of the outdoor temperature
goes blank, press [
] and [
] to enforce an immediate search.

When the RMR232PHN/RMR232PHU is within range, its radio-
control mechanism will override all manual settings unless auto-
reception of radio signal has been deactivated.
CALENDAR CLOCK DISPLAY MODES
The clock and the calendar share the same section of the display.
The calendar is displayed in a day-month format.
When the unit is receiving radio signal, the radio reception signal
will start to blink. A complete reception generally takes about 2 to
10 minutes, depending on the strength of the radio signal.
When the reception is complete, the radio reception signal will stop
blinking. The strength of the reception for the last full hour will be
indicated.

button for two seconds. The radio reception signal will disappear.
The unit will not respond to radio signals.
To enable the feature again, press the [ ] button for two seconds.
The radio reception signal will start blinking to initiate reception
automatically.
