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.
• Only install the stations once the appropriate settings have been made and a stable wireless connection is established.

Note

• The wireless transmission range between the measuring and base stations is up to 100 metres 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 temperature, according to the German Meteorological Service, is 2 m (6.5 ft) above ground.

Warning – Batteries

• Buy special or suitable installation material from a specialised 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 installation, and make sure that there are no electrical wires, water, gas or other lines in the wall at the installation site.
• Do not mount the product above locations where persons might linger.
• We recommend installing the measuring station securely on an outdoor wall.
• Install an anchor, screw, nail, etc. in the wall of your choice.
• Hang the measuring station using the opening intended for this purpose (2).

Operation

6.1. Connection to the measuring station

• To connect the base station and the measuring station, place the two devices as close together as possible.
• After you insert the batteries, the base station automatically searches for a connection to the measuring station and performs initial setup.
• If the device does not connect automatically, the manual search program on the base station must be started.

Note

• Initial setup takes approximately 2 minutes.
• During the connection attempt, the radio symbol on the base station 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 setup process is completed when the indoor and outdoor measurement data is displayed on the base station.
• 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.

6.2. Selecting the channel/Other measuring stations
Note
• Ensure that the base station and measuring station are set to the same channel. Suitable base stations can be found at www.hama.com
• The transmission channel on the supplied measuring station can be changed/set (CH1, CH2, CH3).
• The measuring station is suitable for the following base stations: 186314, 186420

6.3. Low battery charge
Measuring station
If the batteries need to be replaced, the symbol for low battery charge will appear next to the outdoor temperature display on the base device.
