Getting Started/Installation

1. Plug the power adapter into the station, then insert batteries first into the weather station and then into: wireless temperature/humidity/wind sensor and wireless precipitation sensor. The battery compartment of the precipitation sensor is protected by screws; use a suitable screwdriver.
2. When inserting the batteries make sure the polarity is correct to avoid damaging the weather station or sensors. Only use alkaline batteries of the same type; do not use rechargeable batteries.
3. Place all the units next to each other. The weather station will automatically detect the signal from sensors within 3 minutes. If signal from sensors is not detected, long-press the button on the weather station to repeat the search and press the TX button on the sensor.
4. To ensure correct measurement, the temperature/humidity/wind sensor and precipitation sensor must be placed above the ground surface (at least 1.5 m) onto a horizontal surface and outside of buildings and structures. Both sensors must be firmly screwed on to prevent their damag-ing. First, screw the mounting plate onto a level surface, then mount the mounting rod into it. Screw the temperature/humidity/wind sensor onto the rod. Wind must flow freely around the wind sensor from all sides. Check that the wind direction indicator and paddles for measuring wind speed can rotate freely. The north arrow (N) on the built-in compass must point to the real north. The south indicator (S) must point south in reality. Otherwise, wind direction will always be displayed incorrectly. When choosing a suitable place for mounting the sensor, check before installation that the main station is within range of the sensors. The range of the sensors may decrease substantially in areas with large number of obstacles.
5. Do not place the sensors onto metal objects as this will reduce their transmission range.
6. If the low battery icon is displayed, replace batteries in the sensors or weather station.

Changing Channel and Connecting Additional Sensors (Valid for Temperature/Humidity/Precipitation Sensor)

1. Choose the desired channel 1, 2, or 3 for the sensor by repeatedly pressing the button. Then, long press the button; the icon will start flashing.
2. Remove the cover from the battery compartment on the rear of the sensor and set the sensor switch to the desired sensor channel number (1, 2, 3), then insert batteries (4× 1.5 V AA). Data from the sensor will be loaded within 3 minutes.
3. If sensor signal is not found, remove the batteries and proceed again in accordance with steps 1 and 2 or press the TX button.

Attention:
The anemometer (wind speed and direction measurement) only functions on channel 1 (spare sensor E06016). Channels 2 and 3 are used for information about outdoor temperature and humidity (spare sensor E06018).

Displaying Data from Multiple Sensors, Automatic Cycling through Values from Connected Sensors

Press the button repeatedly to display data from all connected sensors on the weather station, one by one. You can also activate cycling through data from all connected sensors

1. turning on cycling
   Repeatedly press the button until the display shows the icon. Data from all 3 sensors will be shown automatically and repeatedly one after another.

2. turning off cycling
   Repeatedly press the button until the icon disappears

Radio Controlled Clock (DCF77)
The wireless temperature/humidity/wind sensor will automatically start searching for DCF77 (hereinafter referred to as DCF) signal for 5 minutes after pairing with the weather station; the icon is flashing. (The DCF sensor is located in the temperature/humidity/wind sensor). Signal detected – the icon stops flashing and the current time will be displayed with the DCF icon . Signal not detected – DCF icon will not be displayed. DCF signal will be synchronised daily between 2:00 and 3:00 am.

You can also activate search for DCF signal manually.
Long-press the WAVE button located in the battery compartment of the temperature/humidity/ wind sensor. The sensor will start searching for DCF signal. To end the search, long-press the WAVE button again.

Note : If the weather station detects DCF signal but the current time on the display is incorrect (e.g. shifted ±1 hour), you must always set the correct time zone for the country where you are using the station, see Manual Settings. In standard conditions (at safe distance from sources of interference, such as TV sets or computer monitors), the reception of time signal takes several minutes. If the weather station does not detect the signal, follow these steps

1. Move the weather station to another location and try to detect DCF signal again.
2. Check the distance of the clock from sources of interference (computer monitors or television sets). It should be at least 1.5 to 2 m during the reception of signal.
3. When receiving DCF signal, do not place the weather station in the proximity of metal doors, window frames and other metal structures or objects (washing machines, dryers, refrigerators etc.).
4. In reinforced concrete structures (cellars, high-rise buildings etc.), the DCF signal reception is weaker, depending on the conditions. In extreme cases, place the weather station close to a window toward the transmitter

Reception of the DCF 77 radio signal is affected by the following factors:

• thick walls and insulation, basements and cellars,
• inadequate local geographical conditions (these are difficult to assess in advance),
• atmospheric disturbances, thunderstorms, electrical appliances with no interference elimination, television sets and computers, located near the DCF radio receiver
