  • Page 8: Installation And Commissioning

    The weather station must only be operated as stationary system, i.e. only in a fitted state and after completion of all installation and start-up works, and only in the environment intended for this purpose. Elsner Elektronik does not assume any liability for changes in standards after publication of this instruction manual. Location Select an assembly location at the building where wind, rain and sun may be collected by the sensors unobstructedly.

    interfering fields of electrical consumers (e.g. fluorescent tubes, illuminated advertising, switching power supply units, etc.). Fig. 3: The weather station must be mounted onto a vertical wall (or pole). Fig.4: The weather station must be mounted horizontally in the lateral direction. Attaching the mount The weather station comes with a combination wall/pole mount.

    Fig. 7: An additional, optional accessory available from Elsner Elektronik is an articulated arm for flexible wall, pole or beam mounting of the weather station. Examples for the application of the hinge arm mounting: Ex.1: With the hinge arm mounting, the weather station projects from beneath the roof.

Push the power supply and bus connection cable through the rubber seal on the bottom of the weather station and connect voltage LN and bus +/- to the provided clamps. Aligning the DCF77 antenna The antenna for DCF77 reception of date and time is located under the PCB in the housing.

  • Page 13: Details For The Installation

    Details for the installation Do not open weather station if water (rain) might ingress: even some drops might damage the electronic system. Observe the correct connections. Incorrect connections may destroy the weather station or connected electronic devices. Please take care not to damage the temperature sensor (small blank at the bottom part of the housing.) when mounting the weather station.

  • Page 14: Transmission Protocol

    Transmission protocol Units: Temperatures in degree Celsius Light in Lux Wind in meters per second The DCF signal may be slightly disturbed. It is possible that there is no radio clock reception for a longer period of time. Therefore only use the indicated time for synchronisation purposes of a clock which is operated parallel in your system.
