BEARWARE 303717 Weatherstation - Initial use

Initial use

  1. Take the product out of the package and remove all the packaging material. Open the battery compartment of the outdoor sensor and insert two 1.5V AA batteries. Pay attention to the correct polarity of the contacts.
  2. Open the battery compartment on the weather station and insert three 1.5V AAA batteries. Pay attention to the correct polarity of the contacts. Alternately, connect the provided 5V DC coaxial ower adapter to the weather station.
  3. connect the power adapter to a properly installed socket.

Note: If the weather station is only used with 1.5V AAA batteries, the backlight is  not permanently switched on. Press the “ALARM/SNOOZE” button to briefly turn on the backlight.

Connection with the outdoor sensor
1.Select the desired channel using the “Channel” button in the battery compartment of the outdoor sensor.
2.After being switched on, the weather station attempts to connect with the outdoor sensor. Ensure that both devices are within each other’s range. The connection icon “ ” starts flashing in the “Outdoor temperature” display of the main unit. To start scanning automatically, press the “Sensor” button on the back of the device.
If the main unit cannot establish a connection with the outdoor sensor within 2 minutes, then it stops searching. The connection icon stops flashing and the temperature display
shows “–%” and “–.°C” on the display.
If a connection cannot be established, then this could be, for example, due to thick walls, or to a long-distance of the sensor from the main unit. In this case, position the sensor and the main unit closer to each other. To restart scanning, press and hold the “Sensor” button on the back of the main unit for2 seconds until the connection symbol in the display starts flashing.
If the outdoor sensor signal is interrupted and the connection cannot be restored within an hour, then the display shows “Er” (error) in the temperature and humidity display.
If the signalis still not available after 48 hours, the display shows “Er” permanently. Press the “Sensor” button on the back of the device to reconnect the device.

Basic settings

DCF signal
You can enable (auto) or disable (off) this function as the penultimate item in the basic settings.
The DCF signal is a time signal which is sent out by one of the most accurate clocks in the world. It is located near Frankfurt am Main. Under ideal conditions, your weather station can receive the signal from a distance of up to 1500 km.
If the weather station has detected the signal, then it displays the current Central European Time, the date, and the day of the week depending onthe basic settings. The DCF symbol ” ” is then shown on the display. The weather station scans for a signal and attempts to synchronize every day at 02:00 and 17:00 hrs.
You can start the signal scan automatically by pressing the “RCC” button in the battery compartment of the outdoor sensor.
Once the attempt to receive a signal fails, the weather station stops scanning after about 5 minutes. The DCF symbol disappears from the display.
Caution! Remember that some devices may be sources of interference for receiving the signal, such as televisions, computers, etc. You may have problems in receiving the signal in closed areas such as airports, factories, cellars, etc.

You can choose between the two setting options using the “CHANNEL/ +” and “MEM/ -” buttons. Confirm your entry using the “BARO” button.
Dew point
The “DEW POINT” is the temperature at which dew forms depending on the humidity. The more humidity in the air, the higher is the dew point temperature. Press the “INDEX” button to change between the dew point and the “heat index” display.
Heat Index
The “HEAT INDEX” indicates the perceived temperature based on the actual air temperature and relative humidity measured.
Press the “INDEX” button to change between the dew point and the “Heat Index” display.

DCF symbol:
The weather station synchronizes the time every night. The symbol begins flashing during synchronization. If the time has been successfully received, then the symbol glows continuously until the next synchronization.

Indoor temperature display:
The indoor temperature is measured by the base station and is shown to an accuracy of one-tenth of a degree. The configured temperature unit is displayed to the right of the measured value. The temperature unit can be changed between °C and  F. Slide the °C / °F  witch on the back of the weather station to the desired position. The display shows “HI” when the measured temperature exceeds the maximum value. The display shows “Lo” if the value falls below the minimum. Press the “°C / °F” button to shift between  celsius and Fahrenheit.
Low battery status
If the battery symbol appears, then the inserted batteries are discharged and should be replaced with new batteries as soon as possible. This applies to the outdoor sensor as well as to the base station. If the empty battery icon appears next to the inside temperature, the battery of the weather station is empty.
Outdoor temperature display:
The outdoor temperature is measured by the outdoor sensor and shown to an accuracy of one-tenth of a degree. The configured temperature unit is shown to the right of the measured value. The temperature unit can be changed between °C and °F. To do this, slide the °C / °F switch on the back of the weather station to the desired position. The display shows “HI” when the measured temperature exceeds the maximum value. The display shows “Lo” if the value falls below the minimum.
Press the “°C / °F” button to shift between Celsius and Fahrenheit.

Channel display
The weather station receives the signal of the outdoor sensor automatically. You can switch between the different channels using the “CHANNEL/+” button. Select the same  channel, which you select for the outdoor sensor. The channels of the outdoor sensor can be selected on the device directly using a toggle switch.
Receiving the outdoor sensor signal
The outdoor sensor sends a signal twice a minute, which is automatically received by the base station. You can also manually enable signal reception. To do this,press the  “Sensor” button on the back of the device until the connection icon starts flashing. Once the signal has been successfully received, the symbol stops flashing and the received temperature and humidity are shown on the display of the weather station.
Frost icon
When the temperature falls below the 3°C marks in the outdoor display, the display shows a “ ” symbol.
