NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing, the  
batteries in the outdoor remote sensor may have reduced  
voltage supply and a shorter effective range. We  
recommend using lithium batteries at temperatures of  
32°F (0°C) and below.  
GETTING STARTED  
WEATHER DISPLAY  
After batteries are installed; remote sensor will transmit  
temperature and humidity data at 45 second intervals. The  
main unit may take up to two minutes to receive the initial  
readings. Upon successful reception, remote temperature  
will appear under the weather forecast section of the main  
unit’s display (the default remote channel is channel one).  
The main unit will automatically update readings at 45-  
second intervals.  
BATTERY INSTALLATION  
REMOTE SENSOR  
NOTE: Install the batteries; select the channel and  
temperature in °C or °F before mounting the remote  
sensor.  
After communication between the main unit and remote  
sensor has been established, secure the remote sensor in  
the desired location.  
• Remove the screws from the battery compartment with a  
small Phillips screwdriver.  
• Set the channel. The switch is located in the battery  
compartment. Channel 1 is typically selected if only one  
remote sensor is being used.  
If no signal is received from the remote sensor within two  
minutes, dashes [- - -] will be displayed. Press and hold the  
DOWN ( ) button on the main unit for two seconds to  
initiate another signal search.  
• Install 2 “AAA” size alkaline batteries (not included)  
matching the polarities shown in the battery compartment.  
• Replace the battery compartment door and secure the  
screws.  
PLACEMENT OF THE UNITS  
The main unit can be placed on any flat surface indoors.  
The remote sensor can be placed indoors or outdoors, on  
a flat surface or mounted on the wall.  
• Secure the remote sensor in the desired location.  
MAIN UNIT  
• Remove the battery compartment door.  
• Install 2 batteries (UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V) matching  
the polarity as shown in the battery compartment.  
• Replace the battery compartment door.  
LOW BATTERY WARNING  
A low-battery indicator [ ] will appear next to the indoor  
or remote data reading line of the main unit warning that  
the corresponding batteries need replacement.

REMOTEAND INDOOR TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY  
The remote temperature and humidity information line is  
located right below the weather forecast line of the main  
unit’s display.  
PROGRAMMABLE TEMPERATURE ALARM  
This product allows manual programming of a HIGH and  
LOW temperature alarms for all three remote channels at  
the same time. Once the actual remote temperature will  
reach the pre-set high or low limits, the alarm will sound.  
The alarm can be set for temperature readings between -58 °F  
and 158°F.  
The wave icon is located above the remote channel number  
indicates the reception status from the corresponding remote  
sensor.  
There are three following types of the reception status may  
be displayed:  
To program the temperature alarm for all three remote  
channels,  
• Press the TEMPAL button once to enter into the High  
Temperature Alarm programming mode – the  
abbreviation “OF” with the high temperature limit  
symbol ( ) will be displayed on the remote  
temperature line

All three remote channels data will be displayed one-by-  
one automatically with 11 seconds delay in the following  
sequence: Channel 1, Channel 2 and Channel 3.  
To exit from scanning mode, press and hold the  
CHANNEL button for 2 seconds, and the icon “ ” will  
disappear, returning the main unit display to the default

NOTE: The weather forecast accuracy is approximately 70%.  
The main unit display shows forecasted (predicted) not  
current conditions. The SUNNY icon indicates clear  
weather, even when displayed during the night-time.  
COMFORT LEVEL INDICATORS  
This product is capable of detecting and displaying the  
current indoor comfort levels of surrounding environment.  
The comfort level is displayed on the weather station portion  
of the main unit’s display. It is based on the combination of  
the current indoor temperature and humidity readings.  
There are following comfort levels may be displayed:  
COMFORT (comfortable); WET (wet) and DRY (dry)  
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM READINGS  
The maximum and minimum record of the indoor and  
remote temperature and humidity will be automatically  
stored in the memory of the main unit (receiver).  
To display the minimum, maximum or the current reading  
press MEM button.

WEATHER FORECAST  
This unit is capable of detecting the atmospheric pressure  
changes. Based on collected weather data, it forecasts the  
weather for the next 12 to 24 hours.  
If there is no reception, please perform the following steps:  
• Bring the main unit and remote sensor close together.  
• Remove four (4) small screws from the back of the  
remote sensor with small Phillips screwdriver, and open  
the battery compartment.  
When the

• Remove the batteries from the main unit and reinstall  
them in the same manner.  
• Make sure the unit is positioned at 8 feet (2 meters)  
distance from any interference source such as a TV,  
computer monitor, microwave, etc.  
• On the main unit select the same channel number using  
CHANNEL button as set on the remote sensor. The  
remote temperature and humidity appeared on the main  
unit’s display will show that transmission is being received  
successfully.  
• Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office  
buildings, the received signal may be weakened. Always  
place the Weather Forecaster near the window for better  
reception.  
TRANSMISSION COLLISION  
ATOMIC CLOCK  
Signals from the other household devices such as wireless  
doorbells, home security systems, and entry control, may  
interfere with this product or cause temporary reception  
interruption. This is normal and will not affect the general  
performance of the product. The transmission and  
reception of the temperature and humidity readings will  
resume once the interference subsides.  
Immediately after establishing communication between the  
main unit and remote sensor, the atomic time signal receiver  
will open and start to search for the atomic time signal.  
The search usually takes between 5-8 minutes.  
NOTE: Do not press any buttons on the main unit during  
auto search as it may interrupt product’s operation,  
and you will need to start set up procedure again.  
Once the atomic time signal is received, the date and time  
will be set automatically, and the [ ] icon will appear.  
NOTE: It is necessary to set your Time Zone, having in  
mind that the default zone is a US Pacific Standard  
Time (PST). (Refer to MANUAL SETTINGS section)  
If the time signal has not been received in 8 minutes, you  
may use the MODE button to set the time and date  
manually. (Refer to the MANUAL SETTINGS section).  
After the clock is set manually, place the Weather  
Forecaster by the window for the better reception. The  
atomic clock receiver is programmed that it will continue  
to search for the atomic time signal daily for every hour  
between 1:00 am and 4:30 am.  
WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME  
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology)  
radio station (WWVB) is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado.  
It transmits an exact time signal continuously throughout  
the most of the continental United States at 60 KHz frequency.  
The Long-Range Weather Forecaster can receive this  
WWVB signal through the internal antenna from up to  
2,000 miles away. Due to the nature of the Earth’s ionosphere,  
reception can be limited during the daylight hours. The radio  
controlled clock will search for an alternate station that  
receives the atomic time signal from the NIST Atomic clock  
in Boulder, Colorado.  
The WWVB tower icon on the unit’s display will flash  
indicating a radio signal reception from the WWVB  
station. If the tower icon is not fully lit, or if the time and  
date are not set automatically, please consider the  
following:  
Once the time signal has been successfully received, the  
time and date will be updated automatically.  
TIME AND CALENDAR DISPLAY MODES  
The Long-Range Weather Forecaster displays current time  
in two display modes – in hour-minutes-seconds format  
and in hour-minutes-day.  
• During night-time hours, atmospheric disturbances are  
typically less severe and radio signal reception may  
improve. A single daily reception is sufficient enough to  
keep the clock accuracy within 1 second.  
The date is displayed in month-date format.
