Introduction Thank you for selecting a Meade Instruments 5-channel thermo-hygro sensor! Meade Instruments is the world's leading designer and manufacturer of telescopes for professional and amateur astronomers ­ famous for its innovative, high performance telescopes at affordable prices. Meade Instruments now brings that same passion innovation and high performance to its own line of precision, feature rich weather stations. In this package you will find: · One Five-Channel Remote Thermo-hygrometer (transmitter) (TS34C-M) · One User Manual Standard Package Contents Picture

Components

Thermo Hygrometer Sensor

Installation All data measured by this remote sensor is transmitted to the main unit wirelessly, with the operating range up to 328 feet (100 meters) in the open area. Remote thermo-hygrometers (temperature & humidity sensors) can be placed indoors or outdoors, depending on the area where the temperature and humidity are intended to be measured. If you intend measuring outdoor temperature and humidity, place the remote sensor outdoors.

Note: It is critical to power up and test communication between the remote sensor and the main unit BEFORE permanently mounting them outside. Before you begin · We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote thermo-hygrometer when temperatures are above 32ºF (0ºC) and lithium batteries when temperatures are below 32ºF (0ºC). · Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries cannot maintain correct power requirements). · Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in the battery compartment · Remove protective plastic screen from LCD display (if any). · During an initial setup, place the main unit close to the remote sensor. · After reception is established (the remote readings will appear on the main unit's display), position the remote sensor and the main unit within the effective transmission range of up to 328 feet (100 meters). Ideally they should be placed within the line of sight of the main unit. · Transmission range may be affected by trees, metal structures and electronic appliances. · The effective operating range may be influenced by the surrounding building materials and how the receiver (main unit) and transmitters (weather sensors) are positioned. · Place the remote thermo-hygrometer so that it faces the main unit (receiver), minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and furniture. Note: When the temperature falls below freezing, the batteries in the outdoor remote thermo-hygrometers may have reduced voltage supply and a shorter effective range. We recommend using lithium batteries at temperatures of 32ºF (0ºC) and below.

Battery installation · Remove the screws from the battery compartment with a small Phillips screwdriver. · Set the channel 1 through 5. The switch is located in the battery compartment. Channel 1 is typically selected if only one remote thermo-hygrometer is being used. · Install 2 "AA" size alkaline batteries (not included) matching the polarities shown in the battery compartment. · Replace the battery compartment door and secure the screws. · Secure the remote thermo-hygrometer in the desired location. Mounting · The remote thermo-hygrometer can be placed on the flat surface or mounted on the wall in vertical position · Use the wall mount hardware and screws provided when mounting the remote thermo-hygrometer on the wall Placement tips: · The remote thermo-hygrometer should be placed in the area with a free air circulation and sheltered from the direct sunlight and an extreme weather conditions. · Ideally, place the remote thermo-hygrometer above the natural surfaces (such as a grassy lawn). · Avoid placing the remote thermo-hygrometer near sources of heat such as chimneys and heating elements. · Avoid any areas collecting and radiating a heat from the sun, such as metal, brick or concrete structures, paving, patios and decks. · The international standard for the valid air temperature measurements is 4 feet (1.25meters) above the ground. Note: To display the readings from the remote thermohygrometer you must own the main display unit of the Meade Professional Weather Station TE923W-M, model number TE923W-M. Additionally it will work with all other Meade weather station models.

Troubleshooting Q: "The remote sensor display shows dashes "---"" A: Press the RESET opening with a paper clip or similar tool. If this does not work, check the batteries and replace them. Q: "Main unit display in temperature and humidity portion shows dashes "---"" A: The display will show "- - -" when the wireless connection with the remote thermo-hygrometer is lost for 15 minutes Check or replace the batteries in remote sensor. Then press and hold DOWN button on the main unit to force a search for the remote signals. If this does not work, check the wireless transmission path from the remote thermo-hygrometer to the main unit and change their locations if necessary. The following may be the cause of reception problems: · The remote thermo-hygrometer and a main unit are too far from each other. · The signal shielding materials, such as metal surfaces, concrete walls or dense vegetation, are in the path of transmission. · There is interference from the wireless devices (such as cordless phones, radio headsets and baby listening devices) and electronic appliances. Precautions This product is engineered to give you years of satisfactory service if handled carefully. Here are a few precautions: · Do not immerse the units in water. · Do not clean the units with abrasive or corrosive materials. They may scratch the plastic parts and corrode the electronic circuits. · Do not subject the product to excessive force, shock, dust, temperature, or humidity, which may result in malfunctions, shorter lifespan, damaged batteries, and damaged parts. · Do not tamper with the product's internal components. Doing so will invalidate the warranty and may cause damage. The product contains no user-serviceable parts. · Use only fresh batteries. Do not mix new and old batteries. · Read the user's manual thoroughly before operating the product.
