Power Supply

Power to the touch-screen weather station can be supplied by batteries or the included AC adapter.
3.2.1

Batteries:

First insert two AA 1.5 V batteries into the battery compartment of the remote temperature/humidity sensor.
•
Immediately following this insert three AA 1.5V batteries into the battery compartment of the touch-screen weather
•
station.
Please help in the preservation of the environment and return used batteries to an authorized depot.
3.2.2

AC Adapter:

First insert two AA 1.5 V batteries into the battery compartment of the remote temperature/humidity sensor.
•
Immediately following this connect the AC adapter to the touch-screen weather station and then plug it into a power
•
outlet.
Note: In both cases it is important to observe this order of succession since the remote temperature/humidity sensor will
send an identification code which has to be received and stored by the touch-screen weather station within the first few
minutes of operation.
3.2.3

Cable Connection:

One further feature of the direct cable connection mentioned in Item 3.1 above is that in case of AC adapter operation
power is provided not only to the touch-screen weather station but to the remote temperature/humidity sensor as well.
Note: Operating the system configured with a wired connection between the remote temperature/humidity sensor and
touch-screen weather station and power supplied by only batteries in the touch-screen weather station is not
recommended. The system will operate however there will be considerably shorter battery life due to the high power
requirements. The batteries may however remain in the unit for emergency supply in case of a power failure.
A change from cable operation to 433 MHz wireless transmission or vice versa is possible since the touch-screen weather
station will recognize this change and will automatically switch to the appropriate operating mode.
