    3.4.2 Display Console Set Up It is recommended to plug in the power supply to reduce the battery consumption and extend the service life. Note: The sensor array must be powered and updating before powering up the console, or the console will time out searching for the sensors.
  • Page 9 Replace the battery door, and fold out the desk stand and place the console in the upright position. The unit will instantly display indoor temperature, humidity, pressure, tendency, moon phase, and time. The wind speed, wind gust, wind direction, rain, outdoor temperature and humidity will update on the display within a few minutes.
  • Page 10 Figure 10 2: Insert the DC plug correctly ; as shown in Figure 11 Figure 11 3: If you want to put it on a table or cabinet, opened the desk stand and turn the DC plug up until 90 degrees; as shown in Figure 12.
  • Page 11 Figure 12 4: If you want to hang on the wall, turn the DC plug down until 0 degrees and closed the desk stand; as shown in Figure 13. Figure 13 Note: If the power adapter is plugged in, BL ON will display in the time area for three seconds when powered up.
  • Page 12: Sensor Operation Verification

    3.4.2 Sensor Operation Verification The following steps verify proper operation of the sensors prior to installing the sensor array. 1. Verify proper operation of the rain gauge. Tip the sensor array back and forth several times. You should hear a “clicking”sound within the rain gauge.

    56’ away. Use common sense. If the weather station is installed next to a tall building, the wind and rain will not be accurate. 4. Wireless Range. The radio communication between receiver and transmitter in an open field can reach a distance of up to 300ft, providing there are no interfering obstacles such as buildings, trees, vehicles, high voltage lines.
  • Page 14 5. Final Installation of Sensor Integrated outdoor transmitter installation. Professional Wireless Weather Station can be used in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Prior to installation, you will need to calibrate the wind direction. 5.1. Northern Hemispheres (NOR). The cardinal directions (N, S, E, W) molded on the body of the outdoor sensor are indicators for the Northern Hemisphere only.
  • Page 15 Southern Hemispheres Figure 14 5.2. Southern Hemispheres (SOU). For Southern Hemisphere installations, ignore these(N, S, E, W) and face the solar panel to the North (and in a sunny position) when installing the Integrated outdoor transmitter. Step 1: Install the Integrated outdoor transmitter and face the solar panel North.

    9. Other Console Features The following section describes additional features and display icons. 9.1 Weather Forecasting Note: The weather forecast or pressure tendency is based on the rate of change of barometric pressure. In general, when the pressure increases, the weather improves (sunny to partly cloudy) and when the pressure decreases, the weather degrades (cloudy to rain).

    Pressure is falling and the previous condition is partly Cloudy cloudy or Pressure is rising and the previous condition is rainy. Pressure is falling and the previous Rainy condition is cloudy. 9.3 Moon Phase The following moon phases are displayed based on the calendar date. Figure 17...
  • Page 26: Pressure Threshold Setting

    9.4 Pressure Threshold Setting The pressure threshold (the negative or positive rate of change of pressure signifying a change in the weather) can be adjusted from 2 mbar/hour to 4 mbar/hour (default level 2 mbar/hour). The lower the level pressure threshold setting, the higher sensitivity for weather forecast changes.
