Step 1 | Power up the transmitter and the weather station

Power up the transmitter
First insert the batteries into the thermo-hygro transmitter as described.

Base station

• Connect the attached power adapter to the base station.
• Remove the battery cover and insert the batteries into the base station as described.

Important!

It may take up to 10 minutes before measured values from the transmitter appear on the display.

Step 2 | Connect the station to the Internet and the TFA VIEW App

(optional) Download

Download the free TFA VIEW App from the “Apple App Store” or “Google Play Store”.

Launch software

• Open the TFA VIEW App and follow the on-screen instructions.
• After you have created an account and started the app, select „Devices“ in the menu. There you can add, remove or sort compatible VIEW devices. You can add transmitters or stations with the „Add device“ button in the iOS app or the blue „+“ button in the Android app (see page 7).
• Now follow the instructions and steps exactly as given by the app.

Get your base station ready

Ensure your station’s Wi-Fi symbol is flashing. If it is not, press and hold the + and SET button at the same time until the symbol begins flashing. Your station is now ready to connect to the internet and the TFA VIEW App.

Having trouble connecting to the Wi-Fi?

First make sure that your mobile device on which you have installed the VIEW App is connected to the 2.4 GHz network of your Wi-Fi router and that you have entered the correct password for your Wi-Fi. For details on how to connect to your router’s 2.4 GHz network, refer to your router documentation. For more troubleshooting tips and support visit: www.tfa-dostmann.de/en/service /frequently-asked-questions/

• Note: Transmitters that were already linked to the VIEW station before the connection are suggested as additional devices in the notification area of the app after a few minutes in order to add them in the app. Only if a transmitter is added later (or was not automatically detected during the connection), select the device management „Devices“ in the app menu. There you can scan and add individual transmitters. They will be received by the VIEW station and forwarded to the server/app.

Step 3 | Mounting the transmitter outdoors

Transmitter for temperature and humidity

The transmitter is used to monitor temperature and humidity. When placed outdoors, choose a shady and dry place for the transmitter. Direct sunlight may trigger incorrect measurement and continuous humidity damages the electronic components needlessly.

If you have connected your station to the Internet and the TFA VIEW app, you can add further transmitters via your mobile device.
For a complete list of of all compatible transmitters, please visit www.tfa- dostmann.de/view/.

   Alternatively, you can also enter the device’s code.

3. Within 10 minutes the app should show the measured values of the added transmitter.
