REMOTE SENSOR  
This product is shipped with the RTGR368N Thermo /  
Hygro Sensor. The main unit can collect data from up to  
6 sensors (5 Thermo / Hygro Sensors and 1 UV Sensor).  
The THGR328N and THGR228N sensors are also  
compatible with this weather station. (Additional sensors  
are sold separately. Contact your local stockist for more  
information.)  
Do not use rechargeable batteries.  
NOTE  
NOTE It is recommended that you use alkaline  
batteries with this product for longer performance.  
The RTGR368N sensor collects temperature and  
humidity readings, and signals from official time-keeping  
organizations for the radio-controlled clock.

CLOCK AND CALENDAR  
This product tracks the time and date based on radio-  
controlled signals from the RTGR368N remote sensor,  
or manual settings that you enter.  
For best results:  
RADIO-CONTROLLED CLOCK  
Insert the batteries and select the unit, channel, and  
radio signal format before you mount the sensor.  
The time and date are automatically updated by radio-  
controlled clock signals from official time-keeping  
organizations in Frankfurt (Germany) and Rugby  
(England) unless you disable this feature. The signals  
are collected by the remote sensor (RTGR368N)  
whenever it is within 1500 km (932 miles) of a signal.  
Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture.  
Do not place the sensor more than 70 metres  
(230 feet) from the main (indoor) unit.  
Position the sensor so that it faces the main (indoor)  
unit, minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls,  
and furniture.  
Initial reception takes 2-10 minutes, and is initiated when  
you first set up the unit, and whenever you press RESET.  
Once complete, the reception icon will stop blinking.  
Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to  
the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects.  
Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold  
winter months as below-freezing temperatures may  
affect battery performance and signal transmission.  
The  
icon shown in the ClockArea indicates
