3. PUTTING INTO OPERATION

The communication between the main unit (receiver) and the remote sensor (transmitter)

is wireless, thus simplifying the installation. The remote temperature sensor transmits data

to the main unit, with an operating range of up to 100 feet (30 meters) in opened area.

The remote temperature sensor can be placed indoors or outdoors, depending on the area

where the temperature is intended to be measured. If you intend to measure outdoor

conditions, place the remote sensor outdoors.

Start-up the transmitter-receiver communication:

• It is important to power-up the remote sensor BEFORE powering-up the main unit.

Immediately after batteries are installed, the remote sensor will start transmitting a

temperature and humidity data to the main unit.

• It is strongly recommended to power up and test communication between the remote

sensor and the main unit BEFORE permanently mounting the sensor outside.

• During initial set up, place the remote sensor within a range of 1m to the main unit in the

same room, both receiver and transmitter far from any other electric product.

• After reception is established (remote readings will appear on the main unit’s display),

position the remote sensor and the main unit within the maximum transmission range of

up to 30 meters (100 feet).

NOTE:

• Avoid pressing any button on the main unit before the remote readings are displayed.

• Transmission or reception range may be affected by trees, metal structures, electronic

appliances, surrounding building materials and how the main unit and transmitter are

positioned.

Placement of sensor and main unit

• Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit (receiver), minimizing obstructions

such as doors, walls and furniture.

• Though the remote sensors are weather-resistant, they should be placed away from direct

sunlight, rain or snow. The optimal location for the outdoor sensor is under the eaves on

the north side of a building with free air circulation.

• The remote sensor can be placed on the flat surface or mounted on the wall in vertical

position by using the included stand. For fixing the stand, use a screw, rather than a nail.

• Ideally, place the remote sensor over soil, rather than asphalt which may affect the

correct measurement.

• Avoid placing the remote sensor near sources of heat, such as chimneys and heating

elements

• Avoid areas that collect heat from the sun and radiate heat, such as metal, brick or

concrete structures, paving, and patios

• The international standard for the valid air temperature measurements is 1.25meters

(4 feet) above the ground

• When mounting the main unit on the wall or vertical surface, fold the table stand back

into the unit.

• Make sure that the main unit is locating within the operating range of all remote sensors.

• Ideally the main unit should be placed within line of sight of remote sensors. Avoid

placing the main unit where surfaces emitting and radiating heat (e.g. heating ducts or air

conditioners) and areas with interference from wireless devices (e.g. cordless phones,

radio headsets, baby monitoring devices and other electronics).

Important notice about batteries

• The HBR636 is delivered with batteries to make the start-up easy for you. These

batteries may not last as long as fully new batteries may. Once you have to replace the

batteries on the outside sensor, we recommend to use alkaline batteries. Advantage of

this is a better performance in case the outside temperature falls below 0° (32°F). For

optimum performance, we recommend even lithium batteries.

• Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries cannot maintain correct

power requirements.)

• ALWAYS install batteries in the remote sensor before the main unit.

• Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in the battery compartment.

4.1.1 OPERATION OF THE WEATHER/PRESSURE WINDOW

For all operations described in Chapter 4.2, press UP (▲) or DOWN (▼) until the

pressure icon “PRESSURE”, to the left of the barometric pressure value, begins to

flash.

The pressure window displays the weather forecast and the local barometric or sea level

pressure. Additionally you may see some statistical data like the pressure reading and

bar-chart for the past 24 hours or a temperature or humidity history bar chart.

Pressure can be displayed in hPa/mBar, inHg or mmHg, and altitude is set in meters or feet.

There are three viewing options available: barometric pressure SEA LEVEL or LOCAL

or ALTITUDE. Local pressure is a measured value (can’t be adjusted) while the

SEA LEVEL is calculated from the Altitude setting. You may also set the SEA LEVEL

value directly, but it is advisable to program only the Altitude and allow the unit to

calculate the SEA LEVEL value. The direct setting of the SEA LEVEL is only advised

if you wish to calibrate the SEA LEVEL pressure based on very accurate pressure

information for your location.

The unit is designed to measure the pressure changes at your specific location and show

this value as the LOCAL barometric pressure.

The SEA LEVEL pressure value is meant to match your local meteo information (like on

TV, radio, newspaper etc.).

4.1.2 SETTING INITIAL PRESSURE PARAMETERS

4. OPERATION

Immediately after batteries are installed, the remote sensor will start transmitting the

temperature and humidity data to the main unit in regular intervals.

Once the main unit is powered-up by activating the batteries, the display will show all

available LCD segments for a moment.

IMPORTANT: After this, all of the display functions will be locked for about 1 minute

(or as long as you are performing a setting), allowing setting your local altitude and

pressure parameters by pressing the UP (▲) or DOWN (▼) and MODE buttons. The

locked display will show the pressure icon and abbreviation “hPA/mBar” flashing in the

Weather/ Pressure Window,

If pressure and altitude are not set within this minute, the unit will self-calibrate and show

the default settings for the pressure and altitude (sea level).After this, the unit will scan the

remote sensors (Ch 1 to Ch 3) in the Temperature/ Humidity Window. There is no

immediate need to press any button during this process.

After this, the unit will start to scan the DCF77 time transmitter in the Clock Window.

Thereby, the default time the unit has started with at the beginning is 12:00. Here too,

there is no immediate need to press any button during this process.

Recommendation: Allow the unit to receive the sensors and the time without touching

ANY button for about 6-8 minutes during the main unit initial set up. This will give the

unit time to synchronize with remotes, stabilize pressure readings and settle with default

settings.

4.1 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.
