1. General information and functioning
The WS-2510 Touch Screen Wireless Weather Station represents a high-quality, extremely
convenient universal weather measuring system, which can record, process and display data
from up to 8 external wireless temperature and humidity sensors, a wireless wind sensor, a
wireless rainfall sensor and a wireless brightness sensor.
The operating concept of the weather station is remarkable. It does not use any operating
elements, but is operated solely via a large, touch-sensitive LC display.
The display can be illuminated permanently or on a time basis, so that it can be easily read under
nearly all light conditions.
The weather station can optionally be powered by means of batteries or with the plug-in power
adaptor provided (particularly recommended when the display is continuously lit or lit for any
length of time).
The display and control possibilities of the WS-2510 at a glance:
Display of the indoor temperature (in °F or °C) and humidity
- Can be switched over to display the dew point indoors
- Storage of the minimum and maximum temperature with the time/date of occurrence
- Storage of the minimum and maximum humidity with the time/date of occurrence
- Alarms can be set for high temperature, low temperature, high humidity and low humidity
- Comfort zone indicator
- Graphical history display for the last 24 h or 8 days (user selectable)
Display of one of 8 (max.) outdoor sensors (temperature in ºF or ºC and humidity)
- Can be switched over to display the dew point or the wind chill temperature
- Storage of the minimum and maximum temperature with the time/date of occurrence
- Storage of the minimum and maximum humidity with the time/date of occurrence
- Alarms can be set for high temperature, low temperature, high humidity and low humidity
- Comfort zone indicator
