Getting Started

4.1. Inserting the batteries

Measuring station

Open the battery compartment (24) and remove the contact breaker. Replace the battery compartment cover.

Base station

• Open the battery compartment (23) and remove the contact breaker. Replace the battery compartment cover.

4.2. Replacing the batteries
Measuring station

• Open the battery compartment (24), remove and properly dispose of the dead batteries and insert two new AAA batteries with the correct polarity. Replace the battery compartment cover.

Base station

• Open the battery compartment (23), remove and properly dispose of the dead batteries and insert two new AA batteries with the correct polarity. Replace the battery compartment cover.

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

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 –todo.

• 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 30 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 the specialized dealers 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 (22) to position the base station on a level surface.
• Alternatively, you can install the base station on a wall using the opening (21) on the back.

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 recess.

Operation

Note –Input
Hold down the ▲ button (16) or the button (14) to select the values faster.
6.1. Connection to the measuring station

Note

• Initial setup takes approx. 2minutes.
• During connection, the wireless symbol on the measuring station will flash (1).
• 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 (4) and outdoor (3) measurement data are displayed.
• The measured value is automatically updated by the base device about every 45 seconds.
• If the temperature is outside of the measuring range, –.- (lower than minimum temperature) or –.- (higher than maximum temperature) will appear on the temperature display.
• If the base station still does not receive a signal from the measuring station, press and hold the button (14) for approx. 3seconds to start the manual search for the

Note –Faulty transfer of measured values

• In isolated cases, interference -e.g. from a WLAN network, computer, or 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.

6.2. 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. Visit www.hama.com for suitable measuring stations.
