- These operating instructions
Setup
- Only operate the product from an approved socket that is connected to the public power supply. The socket must be installed close to the product and must be easily accessible.
- Disconnect the product from the power supply using the On/ Off switch – if this is not available, unplug the power cord from the socket.
- If using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the socket strip’s maximum throughput rating.
- If you will not be using the product for a prolonged period, disconnect it from mains power.
Inserting batteries/power supply
Measuring station
- Remove the protective film from the display.
- Open the battery compartment on the back and insert 2 AA batteries, observing the correct polarity.
- Then close the battery compartment cover. Base station
- Remove the protective film from the display.
- Connect the supplied power supply unit to the power supply unit connection socket (6) on the back of the battery compartment.
- Connect the weather station’s power supply unit to a correctly installed mains socket.
- Alternatively, you can also insert 2xAAA batteries. However, the display switches to unilluminated standby mode after 9 seconds with battery operation.
Installation
- We recommend initially positioning the base station and measuring station at the preferred setup locations without installing them and carrying out all the settings, as described in 6. Operation.
- Do not install the station(s) until the settings are correct and the radio connection is stable.
- The range of the radio transmission between the measuring station and the base station is up to 50 m in unobstructed areas.
- Before installing, make sure that the radio transmission is not influenced by interfering signals or obstacles such as buildings, trees, vehicles, high-voltage power lines, etc.
- Before final installation, make sure that there is sufficient reception between the desired installation locations.
- When installing the measuring station, take care to ensure this is positioned so that it is protected from direct sunlight and rain.
- The international standard height for measuring air temperature is 1.25 m (4 ft) above ground.
- Buy special or suitable installation material from a specialist dealer for wall-mounting.
- Ensure that you do not install any faulty or damaged parts.
- Never apply force during assembly. These can damage the product.
- Before mounting, check that the wall you have chosen is suitable for the weight to be mounted.
- Also, make sure that there are no electric, water, gas, or other lines running through the wall at the mounting site.
- Do not mount the product above locations where persons might sit or stand.
Operation
Connection to the measuring station
- After connection to the mains supply, the base station automatically searches for a connection to the measuring station and carries out the initial setup routine.
- Initial setup takes around 3 minutes.
- The radio symbol measuring station (1) flashes when searching for a connection.
- Avoid any operation of the buttons during this time! Otherwise, errors and inaccuracies may occur in the values and their transmission.
- The process is finished as soon as the indoor and outdoor measurement data are displayed.
Faulty transmission of the measured values
- In some cases, interference caused by a WiFi network, computer, TV, etc., for example, may cause the transmission of measured values between the base and measuring station to fail.
- If this happens, resynchronise the stations by briefly removing the batteries from both stations and reinserting them.
- If the measured values are not transmitted again, replace the batteries with new ones.
- If necessary, choose a new location for the base station to avoid possible interference signals in the future.
- The measuring station and base station must not be positioned more than 50 metres apart.
- Stay at least 2.5 m away from interference
Automatic setting according to the DCF signal
- After successful transmission of the indoor and outdoor temperatures between the measuring and base stations, the weather station (after around 3 minutes) automatically starts searching for a DCF signal. The DCF radio symbol (2) flashes during the search process. This can take a further 7 min.
- When the radio signal is received, the date and time are set automatically.
Setting the Time
- If no DCF radio signal is received within the first few minutes of the initial setup procedure, the search is terminated. The radio symbol disappears.
- In the event of reception problems, we recommend leaving the clock standing overnight since the interference signals are generally fewer in number at this time.
- Meanwhile, you can carry out a manual search for the DCF radio signal at a different location or set the date and time manually.
- The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF radio signal daily (01:00, 02:00, 03:00, 04:00, and 05:00). Once the signal is received successfully, the manually set time and date are overwritten.
Care and Maintenance
- Only clean this product using a lint-free, slightly damp cloth, and do not use any harsh cleaners.
- Ensure that no water is able to enter the product.
