Before commissioning
NOTICE Avoid connection faults!
- In order to avoid connection problems between the devices, the following points must be observed during commissioning.
- Place the base unit (receiver) and sensor (transmitter) as close together as possible.
- Connect the power supply to the base unit and wait until the indoor temperature is displayed.
- Establish a power supply for the sensor.
- Set up/operate the base unit and sensor within the effective transmission range.
- Make sure that the base unit and the radio sensor are set to the same channel.
- When changing the batteries, always remove the batteries from both the base unit and the sensor and reinsert them in the correct order so that the radio link can be re-established.
- If one of the two devices is operated via a mains power connection, the power connection must also be briefly disconnected for this device when the batteries are changed.
- If, for example, only the batteries in the sensor are replaced, the signal may subsequently not be received at all or not be received correctly.
- Note that the actual range depends on the respective construction materials used for the buildings as well as the respective position of the base unit and the outdoor sensor.
- External influences (various radio transmitters and other sources of interference) can greatly reduce the possible range. In such cases, we recommend finding other locations for both the base unit and the outdoor sensor.
- Sometimes moving the sensor by just a few centimeters is enough!
Setting up power supply
Base unit
- Remove the battery compartment cover.
- Insert batteries into the battery compartment. Make sure that the batteries are correctly aligned (+/- poles).
- Replace the battery compartment cover.
- Wait until the indoor temperature is displayed on the base unit.
- Wireless sensor
- Remove the battery compartment cover.
- Move the CH slider switch to the position for the desired transmission channel (1, 2, or 3). The corresponding channel is shown on the sensor display.
- Insert batteries into the battery compartment. Make sure that the batteries are correctly aligned (+/- poles).
- Replace the battery compartment cover.
- Battery replacement
- Always replace all batteries in the base unit and/or wireless sensor with a completely new set of the same type. Proceed as described above.
- After the battery replacement, press the DOWN button on the base unit for approx. 3 seconds to reactivate the wireless connection.
NOTICE! This weather station can be operated with up to 3 wireless sensors. Each connected wireless sensor must be operated on a different channel. If only one wireless sensor is connected, it should be operated on channel 1.
Battery level indicator
- When the level of the batteries in the base station or in the wireless sensor reaches a critical level, the battery level symbol appears in the appropriate area on the display.
- When replacing a set of batteries, always remove the batteries from the other part of the device and reinsert the batteries in the order intended (see chapter “Establishing the power supply”). Replace the batteries to be replaced in the corresponding part of the device with a completely new set at full capacity. This ensures that the connection between the devices is re-established correctly.
NOTICE! The symbol for the battery level indicator is only displayed when the batteries are empty. If the battery level is sufficient, the icon will not be displayed.
Automatic time setting
- After the power supply has been established, the unit automatically searches for the radio signal. It takes approximately 3 to 8 minutes for this process to be completed.
- If the radio signal is correctly received, the time is set auto-matically and the reception symbol is displayed.
- If the radio clock signal is not received, press the UP button for approx. 3 seconds to initiate signal reception.
- If still no radio signal is received, the time must be set manually.
Manual time setting

- Sequence of settings: 12/24 > time zone > hours > minutes > day/month display change > year > month > day > language
- Finally, press the [SET] button to save the settings and exit settings mode.
NOTICE! If no button has been pressed for 20 seconds, the setting mode is automatically exited. The changes made up to that point are saved.
Time zone setting
The time zone is set as part of the manual time setting. Further information can also be found in the chapter “Manual Time Adjustment”.
- Press the SET button for approx. 3 seconds to enter the time setting mode.
- Possibly press the SET button several times until the display shows the setting for the time zone (the factory setting is ’00’).
- Press the UP or DOWN button to select the desired time deviation in hours (-12 to +12 hours).
- Finally, press the SET button for approx. 3 seconds to confirm the set time deviation.
