Operation
Connection to the measuring station
- To connect the base station and the measuring station, place the two devices as close together as possible.
- After you insert the batteries, the base station automatically searches for a connection to the measuring station and performs initial setup. If the device does not connect automatically, the manual search program on the base station must be started.
Note
- Initial setup takes approximately 3 minutes.
- During the connection attempt, the radio symbol and the LED indicator (1) on the measuring station will flash.
- Do not press any buttons during setup. Otherwise, values may not be transmitted correctly and there is a risk of value errors and inaccuracies.
- The setup process is completed when the indoor and outdoor measurement data is displayed on the base station.
- The measured value is automatically updated by the base device about every 57 seconds.
