GETTING STARTED  
BATTERIES  
1. Press and hold MODE for 2 seconds to enter setting  
mode.  
Batteries are not supplied with this product. You will need  
to purchase 2 x UM-3 (AA) 1.5V alkaline batteries for  
the main unit, and 2 x UM-4 (AAA) 1.5V alkaline batteries  
for the remote sensor.  
2. Press UP or DOWN to change settings.  
3. Press MODE to confirm.  
REMOTE SENSOR (THGR122NX)  
Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity as  
shown in the battery compartment. For best results,  
install batteries in the remote sensor before the main  
unit. Press RESET after each battery change.  
This product is shipped with a THGR122NX Thermo/  
Hygro Sensor that collects Temperature and Humidity  
data. Data can be collected from up to 3 sensors.  
Additional sensors sold separately.  
Do not use rechargeable batteries.  
NOTE  
SETUP SENSOR  
Open the remote sensor battery compartment with a  
small Phillips screwdriver.

1. Insert the batteries, matching the polarity as shown  
in the battery compartment.  
For best results:  
Insert the batteries and select the channel  
and temperature unit before you mount the  
sensor.  
2. Set the channel. The switch is located in the battery  
compartment.  
Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and  
moisture.  
SWITCH  
Channel  
OPTION  
Channel 1 - 3. If you are using  
more than one sensor, select a  
different channel for each sensor.  
Do not place the sensor more than 30 meters  
(98 feet) from the main (indoor) unit.  
Position the sensor so that it faces the main  
(indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as  
doors, walls, and furniture.  
3. Place the sensor near the main unit. Press RESET  
on the sensor to initiate signal sending between the  
sensor and the main unit. The reception icon on  
the main unit will blink for approximately 3 minutes  
while it is searching for the sensor. (Refer to the  
Search for Sensor section for more information.)  
Place the sensor in a location with a clear  
view to the sky, away from metallic or  
electronic objects.  
Position the sensor close to the main unit  
during cold winter months as below-freezing  
temperatures may affect battery performance  
and signal transmission.  
4. Close the remote sensor battery compartment.  
5. Secure the sensor in the desired location using the  
wall mount or table stand.  
You may need to experiment with various locations to  
get the best results.  
NOTE To maximiseAtomic Clock signal reception, the  
main unit table stand should be fully opened until it locks  
into place.  
DATA TRANSMISSION  
Data is sent from the sensor(s) every 40 seconds.  
The reception icon shown in the Temperature and  
Humidity Areas show the status.

DESCRIPTION  
CLOCK  
Main unit is searching for  
sensors.  
This product can track the date and time for up to  
2 locations (Clock with Offset Hour). The USAtomic Clock  
in Boulder, Colorado automatically updates this  
information unless you disable the feature. The signals  
are collected by the main unit when it is within 1500 km  
(932 miles) of a signal.  
At least 1 channel has  
been found.  
Channel 1 is selected  
(number will change  
depending on the sensor  
you select)  
Initial reception takes 2 - 10 minutes, and is initiated  
when you first setup the unit, and whenever you press  
RESET. Once complete, the reception icon will stop  
blinking. The icon is shown in the Clock Area.  
--- shows in Temp  
/ Humidity Areas  
The selected sensor cannot  
be found. Search for the  
sensor or check batteries.  
SEARCH FOR SENSOR  
To search for a sensor, press and hold MEM and  
CHANNEL for 2 seconds.  
NOTE If the sensor is still not found, check the  
batteries, obstructions, and remote unit location.  
To force a manual search forAtomic Clock signals, press  
and hold UP for 2 seconds. If no signal is found, check  
the batteries.  
NOTE  
Signals from household devices such as  
doorbells, electronic garage doors, and home security  
systems may cause temporary reception failure. This is  
normal and does not affect general product performance.  
The reception will resume once the interference ends.  
NOTE If the Atomic Clock signal is received and the  
hour is incorrect, use the "hour offset" feature to adjust  
it to to the right value. Please see "SET CLOCK" on  
pg. 9 for instructions.
