Safety notices

  • This product is exclusively intended for the range of application described above.

WARNING

  • Keep the device and the batteries out of reach of children.

  • Small parts can be swallowed by children (under three years old).

  • Batteries contain harmful acids and may be hazardous if swallowed. If a battery is swallowed, this can lead to serious internal burns and death within two hours. If you suspect a battery could have been swallowed or otherwise caught in the body, seek medical help immediately.

  • Batteries must not be thrown into a fire, short-circuited, taken apart or recharged.
    Risk of explosion!

  • Low batteries should be changed as soon as possible to prevent damage caused by leaking. Make sure the polarities are correct. Never use a combination of old and new batteries together, nor batteries of different types. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and mucous membranes when handling leaking batteries. In case of contact, immediately rinse the affected areas with water and consult a doctor

CAUTION

  • Unauthorised repairs, alterations or changes to the device are prohibited.
  • Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures, vibrations or shock

Getting started

Combined sensor

  • Mount the combined sensor (Fig.1-E) on the adjustable base (Fig.1-H). Tighten the two screws (Fig.1-F).
  • Open the battery compartment at the bottom of the device (Fig.1-G) and insert three new batteries 1,5 V AA, polarity as illustrated.
  • Close the battery compartment.
  • With the solar panel (Fig.1-B) the battery life will be extended.
  • The LED signal light (Fig.1-C) is flashing.
  • Take the base station into operation according to the instruction manual of the base station or proceed according to “Add additional transmitters” in the Quick set-up guide.

Installation

Positioning of the rain sensor

  • Make sure that the wind can blow freely around the combined sensor and is not blocked by nearby buildings, trees or any other objects.

  • For best results, we recommend mounting the combined sensor on a mast, ideally 3 metres above any obstructions.

  • Try to install the combined sensor so that it will be exposed to the normal wind conditions in your area.

  • Attach the delivered adjustable base (Fig.1-H) to a mast (ø 25-28mm). Matching metal brackets and nuts are included in the scope of delivery.
    Installation Installation

  • The adjustable base can also be attached to a surface. First screw the base in the desired position with the four screws (Fig.1-K). The adjustable base may be rotated by 90°/180°. Open the fixing screw (Fig.1-J) and loosen the adjustable base (Fig.1-H). Turn it in the desired position and tighten the fixing screw again.

  • Make sure that the adjustable base is securely fastened.

  • Then place the combined sensor on the adjustable base (Fig.1-E) and fix it with the screws (Fig.1-F).

  • The wind wheel points upwards and the wind vane downwards.

  • Ensure the combined sensor is mounted level with the solar panel (Fig.1-B) facing directly to the South. This will help optimize battery life and transmit correct wind direction. Use a compass if necessary.

Care and maintenance

  • Clean the device with a soft damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents.
  • Make sure that the wind cups and the vane can spin freely and are free from dirt, debris or spider webs.
  • Remove the batteries if you do not use the device for a long period of time

Battery replacement

  • As soon as the corresponding battery symbol appears in the display of the weather station or in the device information of the VIEW App, please change the batteries of the combined sensor.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution
