Setting up using batteries:

Important: To avoid operating problems, please take note of battery polarity if inserting any
batteries. Also do not press any buttons after start up until all sensor information has
been displayed and the radio controlled time has set. Doing so may interrupt
communication between the sensors and display or interrupt the WWVB time
reception.
Setting up using the AC adaptor:
1) Power up all the sensors as described in setting up using batteries above
2) Using the AC adaptor (included), plug it into the mains outlet and power up the base
station by inserting the adaptor jack into the DC 6.0V socket located on the side of the
base station
Every time the thermo-hygro sensor is powered up (for example after a change of batteries), a
random security code is transmitted and this code must be synchronized with the base station to
receive weather data.
When the base station is powered up, a short beep will sound and all LCD segments will light up
for about 5 seconds before it enters into a 15 minute learning mode to learn the sensors security
code. After the learning mode (or by pressing the MIN/MAX key at anytime), the base station will
start the WWVB radio controlled time reception.
Note for WWVB Radio Controlled Time:
The time and date display is based on the signal provided by the highly accurate government
operated atomic clock in Ft. Collins, Colorado. This radio-controlled clock does not only provide
for the weather station's time and date display but also functions as the time and date source for
all of this weather station's memory and history values using time and date information.
Thermo-Hygro Sensor
Battery Cover
1) Pull away the rain cover of the thermo-hygro sensor to reveal the
three sockets (for the wind sensor, rain sensor and the base
station)
2) Connect the attached cables of wind and rain sensors to the
corresponding sockets of the thermo-hygro sensor by clicking
them into place
3) Open the battery cover of the thermo-hygro sensor located
below the three sockets and insert 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V
batteries and close the cover
4) Open the base station's battery cover located at the back of the
unit and insert 3 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries into the battery
compartment and close the battery cover
