2.4.3 Sensor Operation Verification

Verify the indoor and outdoor humidity match closely with the console and sensor array in the same

location (about 10' apart). The sensors should be within 8% (the accuracy is ± 4%). Allow about 30

minutes for both sensors to stabilize.

Verify the indoor and outdoor temperature match closely with the console and sensor array in the same

location (about 10' apart). The sensors should be within 4°F (the accuracy is ± 2°F). Allow about 30

minutes for both sensors to stabilize.

It is recommended you mount the remote sensor on a north facing wall, in a shaded area. Direct

sunlight and radiant heat sources will result in inaccurate temperature readings. Although the sensor is

water resistant, it is best to mount in a well protected area, such as an eve.

Use 3 screws to affix the mounting bracket to the wall with a precision scewdriver. Connect the

remote sensor to the wall bracket.

Note: The console has four keys for easy operation: SET key, ALARM key, MIN/MAX key and

key. There are four program modes: Quick Display Mode, Set Mode, Alarm Mode and Min/Max

Mode.

Any program mode can be exited at any time by either pressing the SNOOZE/LIGHT key, or waiting

for the 10-second time-out to take effect (the snooze/light key is on the top of the unit and is labeled

SNOOZE/LIGHT).

While in Normal Mode, press the SET key to enter the Quick Display Mode as follows (once for

outdoor temperature and dew point and twice for absolute pressure and relative pressure):

Display Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point. Press the MIN/MAX or

between outdoor temperature and dew point.
