  • Hang the measuring station onto it using the cut-out (37) provided.

7. 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.

Note

  • Initial setup takes around 3 seconds.
  • The radio symbol Measuring station (8) 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.

If no signal is received from the measuring station on a repeated basis, press and hold the CH button (G) for at least 3 seconds to start the manual search for the signal.

Note – temperature display

“HH.H” is shown in the display (11) when the outdoor temperature is above 50°C.

Note – 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 the possible interference signals in the future.
  • The measuring station and base station may be placed max. 50 m apart from each other.
  • Stay at least 2.5 m away from interference

Channel selection / Additional outdoor sensors

Note

  • You can install two further outdoor sensors in addition to the outdoor sensor supplied. When doing so, ensure the same channel setting on the base station and each outdoor sensor.
  • Suitable outdoor sensors can be found at www.hama.com
  •  Channel 1 is pre-selected.
  •  Press the CH button (G) repeatedly to set the same channel as on the outdoor sensor in question. Channel 1, 2 or 3 is displayed.
  • If the symbol appears, the weather station automatically changes the channel display every 5 seconds. As soon as the required channel is displayed, press the CH button (G) again to store it.
  • To change the channel on the measuring station, open the battery compartment and set the channel switch (39) to the same channel as the base station.

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. During the search process, the DCF radio signal (2) flashes and the display goes dark.
  • When the radio signal is received, the date and time are set automatically. This can take a further 10 minutes.

Note
Language and time zone are preset to Germany.

Note – 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

If the weather station does not receive the DCF signal, press the RCC button (F) for at least 3 seconds to start the signal search again. The radio symbol flashes during the search and the display goes dark. If a signal is still not received after that, the time and date must be set manually.

Manual setting of the time, date and units

  • Press and hold the SET button (A) for around 3 seconds to carry out the following settings in sequence:

    • Year

    • Display “Month/ Day” (M/D) or “Day/ Month” (D/M)
