correct polarity. Close the battery compartment.
5. 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.
Operating –todo
- Only install the stations once the appropriate settings have been made and a stable wireless connection is established between the stations.
- Do not mount the product above locations where persons might linger.
Note
- The wireless transmission range between the measuring and base stations is up to 30 in 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.
- Ensurethat no faulty or damaged parts are installed.
- Never apply force during installation. This could damage the product.
- Before installation, ensurethat the chosen wall is suitable for the weight to be installation, and make sure that thereare no electrical wires, water, gas, or other lines at the installation site on the wall.
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 (12). Install an anchor, screw,nail, etc. in the wall of your choice.
- Hang up the base/measuring station using the opening intended for this purpose.
6. Operation
Note – Input
Hold down the button ( ) or the button ( ) to select values faster.
6.1 Connection to the measuring station
After you insert the batteries, the base station automatically searches for a
connection to the measuring station and performs the initial setup.
Note
- Initial setup takes approx. 3minutes.
- 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 setup process is completed when the indoor (3) and outdoor (1) measurement data are displayed.
- If the base station still does not receive a signal from the measuring station, press and hold the button ( ) for approx. 3seconds to start the manual search for the signal.
6.2 Basic and manual settings
Automatic setting using the DCF signal
After the base station is switched on for the first time and successful
transmission is established between the base station and the measuring
station, the clock will automatically search for the PCF signal. During the
search, the wireless symbol (6) will flash.
Display | Searching for the DCF signal |
---|---|
Flashing | Active |
Displayed continuously | Successful –signal is being received |
No display | Deactivated |
If the station still does not receive a signal, press and hold the button ( )
for approx. 3seconds to start the manual search for the DCF signal. The
wireless symbol (6) 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. The wireless symbol (6) will go out.
- 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 3:00 a.m.). If the signal is received successfully, the manually set time and date are overwritten.
Note –Summertime
- The clock automatically switches to summertime. S appears on the display as long as summertime is activated.
- Press and hold the button ( ) again for approx. 3seconds to stop the manual search.
Manually setting the date/time
•Press and hold the button (9) for approx. 3seconds to stop the search for the
DCF signal. The wireless symbol (6) goes out and you can set the time
manually.

•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.
•Ifyou areinMoscow, 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.
Celsius/Fahrenheit
•Press the button ( ) to switch between °C and °F for the temperature display.
12/24 hour format
