INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Remote Thermo-Hygro
Sensor (THGR268).
The THGR268 is compatible with a variety 433MHz multi-channel
in-out thermo-hygro monitoring units. Operation is easy and no wire
installation is required.

GETTING ST
NOTE T
remote sensor, follow these instructions carefully.
BA
1. Place both units as close as possible to each other.
2. Assign a different channel to each remote sensor by changing
the channel switch in the battery compartment of the remote
sensor[FIG A]
3. Select the units of measurement for the temperature display on
the ° C/° F slide switch. [FIG B]
4. Install 2 alkaline batteries (UM-3 or "AA" size 1.5V) strictly
according to the polarities shown. [FIG C]
5. Insert batteries or press the reset button of the main unit. Follow
the instructions as set out in the user's manual.
6. Position the remote sensor and main unit within effective
transmission range, which in usual circumstances, is 30 meters.
NOTE The effective range may be limited by building materials and
the position of either the main unit or remote sensors. T
up arrangements for best result.
Though the sensor is weatherproof, and is meant for use outside, it
should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain, or snow.
CHANGING CHANNELS
Once a channel is assigned to a unit, you can only change it by removing
the batteries and repeating the above procedure.
LOW-BA
A battery-low indicator [ ] will activate on the sensor to indicate that
the batteries are low and require changing. Low batteries for a given
sensor will also be indicated on the main unit. Replace the batteries
when the low-battery indicator appears.
Standard
Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately
10° F (12° C). Disposable Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold
for temperature with an estimated freezing range of below -40° F (-
40° C). The Liquid Crystal Display in outdoor thermometers will remain
operational to -20° F (-28° C) with adequate power.
Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors such as
extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may temporarily reduce
the effective range between the sensor and the base station. If the
unit's performance fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume
proper functioning as the temperature rises to within the normal
temperature range (i.e no permanent damage will occur to the unit
due to low temperatures).
NOTE Disposed of improperly, batteries can be harmful.
Protect the environment by taking exhausted batteries to
authorized disposal stations.
THE COMFORT
The comfort level is based on the recorded relative humidity
cator will be displayed to show if the level is comfortable, wet or dry.
[FIG D]
OPERA
Once batteries are in place, the sensor will start transmitting samplings
at 40-second intervals.
The remote sensor reading shown on the LCD of the main unit depends
on which remote sensor channel has been chosen.

HOW TO RESET THE UNIT
The reset function is required only when the unit is operating in an
unfavorable way or malfunctioning.
To access:
1. Lift open the battery compartment door.
2. Place a blunt stylus into the hole marked RESET and press.
3. Replace the battery compartment door.
See the user's manual of your main unit for further information.
HOW TO USE THE T
This sensor comes with a wall-mount holder and a removable
stand. Use either to hold the unit in place. [ FIG E]
PRECAUTIONS
This product is engineered to give you years of satisfactory service if
you handle it carefully. Here are a few precautions:
1. Do not immerse the unit in water.
2. Do not clean the unit with abrasive or corrosive materials. They
may scratch the plastic parts and corrode the electronic circuit.
3. Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust,
temperature or humidity, which may result in malfunction, shorter
electronic life span, damaged battery and distorted parts.
4. Do not tamper with the unit’s internal components. Doing so will
invalidate the warranty on the unit and may cause unnecessary
damage. The unit contains no user-serviceable parts.
5. Only use fresh batteries as specified in the user’s manual. Do
not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline, standard
(carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.
6. Always read the user’s manual thoroughly before operating the
unit.
