Before commissioning

NOTICE
Avoid connection faults!

1. Place the base unit (receiver) and sensor (transmitter) as close together as possible.
2. Connect the power supply to the base unit and wait until the indoor temperature is displayed.
3. Establish power supply for the sensor. 4. Set up/operate the base unit and sensor within the effective transmission range.
4. Make sure that the base unit and the radio sensor are set to the same channel. When changing the batteries, always remove the batteries in both the base unit and the sensor and reinsert them in the correct order so that the radio connection can be re-established. If one of the two  devices is  operated via a mains power connection, the power connection for this device must also be disconnected briefly when changing the battery. If, for example, only the batteries in the sensor are replaced, the signal cannot be received or can no longer be received correctly. Note that the actual range depends on the building materials used in the building and the position of the base unit and 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 a shift of just a few centimetres is enough!

Note:

• The accuracy of a pressure-based weather forecast is about 70% to 75%.
• The weather forecast is meant for the next 12 hours, it may not necessarily reflect the current situation.
• The snow weather forecast is not based on air pressure, but on the outdoor temperature. When the outdoor temperature is below -3°C (26°F), the snow symbol is shown on the LCD display.

Trend arrow indicators

1. Rising
2. Steady
3. Falling

The temperature and humidity trend indicator shows the trends of changes in the forthcoming few minutes. Arrows indicate a rising, steady or falling trend.

Barometric / Atmospheric Pressure

Atmospheric pressure (hereinafter referred to as “air pressure”) is the pressure at any place on earth caused by the weight of the layer of air above it. Air pressure is proportional to average pressure and decreases gradually with altitude. Meteorologists use barometers to measure air pressure. Because
the weather is highly dependent on changes in air pressure, it is possible to make a weather forecast from the measured changes in air pressure.
In normal display mode, press the BARO button repeatedly to display the desired unit (hPa, inHg or mmHg).

Set relative atmospheric pressure

1. Find out the relative air pressure value for your location (or as close to it as possible) through the local weather service, the Internet or other sources.
2. Press the BARO button for approx. 3 seconds until ABS or REL flashes.
3. Press the UP or DOWN key until REL flashes.
4. Press the BARO button to move to the next setting value.
5. Press the UP or DOWN key to change the REL value (according to the researched value).
6. Finally, press the CLOCK-SET button to save the settings and exit the setting mode.
   • NOTICE! ABS: Absolute air pressure at your current location
   • NOTICE! REL: Relative air pressure based on sea level (N.N.)
   • NOTICE! The default relative air pressure value is 1013 mbar/hPa (29.91 inHg), which is relative to the average air pressure value.
   • NOTICE! If the value for the relative air pressure is changed, the weather displays also change as a result.
   • NOTICE! The built-in barometer registers changes in absolute air pressure caused by the environment. Based on the collected data, a forecast for the weather conditions in the next 12 hours can be made. The weather indicators change according to the determined absolute air pressure after only one hour of operation.
   • NOTICE! The relative air pressure is based on sea level, but it also changes with changes in absolute air pressure after one hour of operation.

Wind speed and direction

Reading the wind direction

Select display mode
Press the WIND button several times until the desired rate is displayed:

• AVERAGE: average of all wind speed numbers recorded in the previous 30 seconds
• GUST: highest wind speed (gust) recorded from last reading

The wind level provides a quick reference on the wind condition and is indicated by a series of text icons:

Select wind speed unit

1. Press the WIND button for approx. 3 seconds to enter the setting mode.
2. Press the UP or DOWN button to change the unit between mph (miles per hour), m/s (miles per second), km/h (kilometer per hour) or knots.
3. Press the WIND button to save the settings and exit the setting mode.

Beaufort scale

The Beaufort scale is an international scale of wind velocities from 0 (calm) to 12 (Hurricane force).

Wind chill factor

Press the INDEX button several times until WIND CHILL is displayed.
Note:
The wind chill factor is based on the common effects of temperature and wind speed.The displayed wind chill is calculated solely from temperature and wind speed and is measured by the outdoor sensor.

Heat index

Press the INDEX button to display the Heat index

stroke
39.5°C ~ 46.1°C| Danger| Heat exhaustion likely
32.8°C ~ 39.4°C| Extreme caution| Possibility of dehydration
26.7°C ~ 32.7°C| Caution| Possibility of heat exhaustion

Heat index is only calculated when room temperature is between 26 ~ 50°C.

Dew point

Press the INDEX button several times until DEW POINT is displayed.
Note:
The dew point is the temperature below which the water vapor in air at constant barometric pressure condenses into liquid water at the same rate at which it evaporates. The condensed water is called dew when it forms on a solid surface. The dewpoint temperature is calculated from the indoor temperature and humidity measured at the main unit.
