Getting Started

Note
Before use, ensure you insert the batteries in the measuring station first and then in the base station.

Insert batteries /connect the power supply

Measuring station

• Remove the screen protector from the display.
• Open the battery compartment (C5) and remove the contact breaker.
• Then close the battery compartment cover.

Base station

Warning

• Connect the product only to a socket that has been approved for the device. The socket must be installed close to the product and must be easily accessible.
• Disconnect the product from the network using the power button –ifthis is not available, unplug the power cord from the socket.
• When using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that the sum power draw of all the connected devices does not exceed its maximum throughput rating.
• If you will not be using the product for a long period of time, disconnect it from mains power.
• Remove the screen protector from the display.
• Connect the power supply unit to the power supply unit connection socket (B10) on the back of the base station.
• Connect the power cable of the weather station to the properly installed socket.
• Alternatively, open the battery compartment (B12), insert two AA batteries with the correct polarity, and close the battery compartment cover.

Note
If the batteries are inserted correctly and you connect the power supply unit to the station, the base station will automatically switch to the external power supply.

Replacing the batteries

Note –Replacing the batteries ****

• Note that the stations have to be resynchronized each time after you change the batteries in the measuring or base station.
• To do this, remove the batteries from the other station and then reinsert them, or change them as required.

Measuring station

• When the symbol appears, replace the 2AAbatteries for the measuring station with 2new ones.
• Open the battery compartment (C5), remove and properly dispose of the dead batteries and insert 2new AA batteries with the correct polarity. Then close the battery compartment cover.

Base station

• When the symbol appears, replace the 2AAbatteries for the base station with 2new ones.
• Open the battery compartment (B12), remove and properly dispose of the dead batteries and insert 2new AA batteries with the correct polarity. Then close the battery compartment cover.

Installation

Note –Installation

• We recommend initially placing the base and measuring stations in the intended locations without installing them and making all the settings described in 6. Operation – to do.
• Only install the stations once the appropriate settings have been made and an astable wireless connection is established.

Note

• The wireless transmission range between the measuring and base stations is up to 50 min open spaces.
• Before installation, ensure that wireless transmission will not be disrupted by interference or obstacles like buildings, trees, vehicles, high-voltage lines, etc.
• Before the final installation, ensure that there is sufficient reception between the intended installation locations.
• When installing the measuring station, ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight and rain.
• The international standard height for measuring air temperatureis1.25 m(4ft) above ground.

Warning

• Buy special or suitable installation material from a specialized dealer for wall-mounting.
• Ensure that no faulty or damaged parts are installed.
• Never apply force during installation. This could damage the product.
• Before installation, ensure that the chosen wall is suitable for the weight to be mounted, and make sure that there are no electrical wires, water, gas or other lines at the installation site on the wall.
• Do not mount the product above locations where persons might linger.

Base station

• Use the base to position the base station on a level surface.
• Alternatively, you can install the base station on a wall using the opening (B13) on the back.

Measuring station

• You can also position the measuring station on a level outdoor surface.
• We recommend installing the measuring station securely on an outdoor wall (C6).
• Install an anchor, screw, nail, etc. in the wall of your choice.
• Hang up the base/measuring station using the opening
  (B13/C6) intended for this purpose.

Operation

Note –Input

• Hold the button (B4) or the button (B5) to select the values faster.

Connection to the measuring station

• After you insert the batteries, the base station automatically searches for a connection to the measuring station and performs initial setup.

Note

• Initial setup takes approximately 3minutes.
• During the connection attempt, the radio symbol on the measuring station (A12) will flash.
• Do not press any buttons during setup. Otherwise, values may not be transmitted correctly and there is risk of value errors and inaccuracies.
• The setup process is completed when the indoor and outdoor measurement data (A1/A2/A8/A10) is displayed.
• If the base station still does not receive a signal from the measuring station, press and hold the button (B5) for approx. 3seconds to start the manual search for the signal.

Note –Faulty transfer of measured values

• In isolated cases, interference -e.g. from a WLAN network, a computer or a television set -can cause the transfer of measured values between the measuring station and the base station to fail.
• In this case, you must resynchronize the stations by briefly removing the batteries from both stations and reinserting them.
• If the measured values are not transferred again once the batteries are inserted, replace the batteries with new ones.
• If necessary, select a new location for the base station in order to avoid possible interference in the future.

Selecting the channel/other measuring stations

Note
You can install two more measuring stations in addition to the included measuring station. Ensure that the base and measuring stations are set to the same channel.

• Press the button (B5) repeatedly to set the channel to that set on the respective measuring station. Channel 1, 2or3 is displayed.
• If the symbol is displayed, the weather station will automatically switch the displayed channel every five seconds.

Basic and manual settings

Automatic setting using the DCF signal

• After the first time, the base station is switched on and successful transmission is established between the base station and the measuring station, the clock will automatically search for aDCF signal. During the search, the wireless symbol (A13) will flash.

• If the station still does not receive a signal, press and hold the button (B4) for approx. 3seconds to start the manual search for the DCF signal. The wireless symbol (A13) will start to flash.

Note –Time settings

• The search process takes about 7minutes. If the search fails, it ends and is repeated at the next clock hour.
• In the meantime you can, however, set the time and the date manually.
• The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF signal on a daily basis (between 1:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m.). If the signal is received successfully, the manually set time and date are overwritten.
• Press and hold the button (B4) again for approx. 3 seconds to stop the manual search.

Note –Summertime
The clock automatically switches to summertime. DTS appears on the display as long as summertime is activated.

(Manual) settings

• Press the button (B2) to switch between the display of the date and seconds.
• Press and hold the button (B2) for approx. 3seconds to make the following settings one after the other:

• Press the button (B2) immediately to adopt the set value displayed and skip ahead.
• If you do not make an entry for 20 seconds, Settings mode is exited automatically.

Note –Time zone

• The DCF signal can be received over long distances, but always transmits the current Central European Time in Germany. Make sure you account for the time difference in countries with another time zone.
• If you are in Moscow, the time is 3hours later than in Germany. This means that you should set +3 for the time zone. The clock then automatically sets the time to 3hours after the DCF signal is received or relative to the manually set time.

Note –Day of the week
You can choose from German (GE), English (EN), French (FR), Italian (IT), Spanish (SP), Dutch (DU), and Danish (DA) for the day of the week display.
