Getting started

Note
Before use, make sure that you insert the batteries in the measuring station first and then in the base station.
4.1 Measuring station

• Open the battery compartment (21) and insert two AA batteries with the correct polarity into the battery compartment.
• Use the slide switch (20) to select the channel that the respective measuring station is to use for transmission. Each of the three measuring stations must use a different channel!
• Close the battery compartment.

4.2 Base station

• Open the battery compartment (15) and insert three AAA batteries with the correct polarity into the battery compartment.
• Then close the battery compartment cover.
  4.3 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

• If the symbol is displayed on the basis station in the measurement values area of one of the three measuring stations (5/6/7), replace the two AA batteries of the affected measuring station with two new ones.
• Open the battery compartment (21), remove and properly dispose of the depleted batteries, and insert two new AAA batteries with the correct polarity. Then close the battery compartment cover.
  Base station
  • If the symbol is displayed on the base station in the indoor values area (2), replace the three AAA batteries in the base station with three new ones.
  • Open the battery compartment (15), remove and properly dispose of the dead batteries and insert three new AAA batteries with the correct polarity.Then close the battery compartment cover.

 Installation

Note –Installation

• We recommend initially placing the base station and measuring station(s) in the intended locations without installing them and making all the settings described in

Operation.

•  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.

5.1 Base station

• Use the base to position the base station on a level surface.
  5.2 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 using the opening (19).

Operation

6.1 Connection to the measuring station
After you have inserted the batteries, the base station automatically searches for a connection to the three measuring stations and performs the initial setup.

Note

• Remember that each of the three measuring stations must use a different channel.
• Initial setup takes approximately 3minutes.
• During the connection attempt, the measuring station radio symbol 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 process is completed when the indoor (2/4) and outdoor (5/6/7) measurement data is displayed.
•  If a signal from the measuring station is still not received, select one of the three channels by pressing the CH button (9). Then hold the CH button (9) for approximately 3 seconds to start the manual search for the signal.
• Press the TX button (18) on the desired measuring station to initiate the transmission of a signal that can be received by the base station.

6.2 Basic and manual settings
Automatic setting using the DCF signal (radio-controlled clock)
• When the base station has been switched on for the first time and successful transmission has been established between the base station and the measuring station, the clock will automatically search for the DCF signal. During the search, the radio symbol for DCF reception flashes.

• If the station still does not receive a signal, press and hold the DOWN button (13) until the radio symbol begins to flash, to start the manual search for the DCF signal.

Note –Time settings

• The search process takes about 3minutes. If the search fails, it ends and is repeated at the next clock hour.The radio symbol ( )goes out.
• It is not possible to manually set the time and date during the search for the DCF signal.
• The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF signal on a daily basis (between 1amand 5 am) to correct any deviations.
• If the signal is received successfully,the manually set time and date are overwritten.
• Press and hold the DOWN button (13) again for approximately 3seconds to stop the manual search.

Note –Summertime

• The clock automatically switches to summertime.

Manual settings

Note

• Hold the UP button (12) or the DOWN button (13) to select the values faster.
• Press the SET button (11) to make the following settings in order:

Note –Time zone

• The DCF signal can be received over long distances, but always transmits the current Central European Time in Germany. Please note that for countries with a different time zone, you must set the time difference manually.
• If you are in Moscow, for example, the time is 3hourslater than in Germany. This means that you shouldset +3 for the time zone. The clock then sets the time automatically to 3hours ahead after receiving the DCF signal or according to the manually set time.
