Action Button Instructions
IBS-M2 Wi-Fi Gateway
CH/R Button:
- Press it to switch between the channels (CH1, CH2, CH3…CH9), the screen will display the measured temperature of the chosen channel (CH1, CH2, CH3…CH9). If CHO is selected, the measured temperature of each channel will be displayed alternately for 3 seconds.
- Press and hold it for 5 seconds to reset the registration of all IBS-TH2 Temperature Humidity Sensors. We should remove the batteries of the IBS-TH2 Temperature Humidity Sensor, reinstall them, then place the sensor close to the gateway to re-establish the connection and complete the registration. °C/°F Button:
- Press it to switch the temperature unit between °C and °F.
Safeguards
- Please do not disassemble the product if you are not a professional.
