    Low battery indicator Table standing or wall mounting The Outdoor Thermo-hygro Transmitter Remote transmission of outdoor temperature and humidity to Weather Station by 868 MHz Display alternately the outdoor temperature and humidity readings on LCD Shower proof casing Wall mounting case (Mounting at a sheltered place. Avoid direct rain and sunshine)
  • Page 3: Battery Change

    The outdoor temperature and humidity from the second transmitter and the "channel 2" icon should then be displayed on the Weather Station. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and reset from step 1.
  • Page 4: Dcf Radio Controlled Time

    Unsuccessful 868MHz signal reception. Malfunction on the units. Batteries replacement. For resetting, remove all batteries from the units. Wait at least for 1 minute before powering up the Weather station again. Proceed from step 1 in “Setting Up”. DCF RADIO CONTROLLED TIME The time base for the radio controlled time is a Cesium Atomic Clock operated by the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig which has a time deviation of less than one second in one million years.

    Transmitter identification number (if more than 1 transmitter is used) * When the signal is successfully received by the Weather Station, the outdoor transmission icon will be switched on. (If not successful, the icon will not be shown on LCD). The user can then easily see whether the last reception was successful (icon on) or not (icon off).
  • Page 7: Time Zone Setting

    Confirm with the SET key and enter the Manual time setting. MANUAL TIME SETTING: In case the Weather Station cannot detect the DCF-signal (for example due to disturbances, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be manually set. The clock will then work as a normal Quartz clock.
  • Page 8: Calendar Setting

    Month and date (12hr time format) The date default of the Weather station is 1. 1. 2006. Once the radio-controlled time signals are received, the date is automatically updated. However, if the signals are not received, the date can also be set manually.

    Use the OUT/+ key to toggle between “hPa” or “inHg” unit Confirm with the SET key and enter the Relative air pressure value setting. Note: Units of weather icon sensitivity and air pressure history are not affected. They are always expressed in hPa. RELATIVE AIR PRESSURE VALUE SETTING The default relative pressure value is 1013 hPa (29.92 inHg).

    If the icons do not change, then it means either the air pressure has not changed or the change has been too slow for the Weather station to register. However, if the icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no change of icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse (with rainy icon) since the icons are already at their extremes.
  • Page 12: Air Pressure History (Electronic Barometer With Barometric Pressure Trend)

    Note: For accurate barometric pressure trends, the Weather Station should operate at the same altitude for example, it should not be moved from the ground to the second floor of the house. Should the unit be moved to a new location, discard readings for the next 12-24 hours.
  • Page 13: About The Outdoor Transmitter

    Note: When the 868MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the transmitter or Weather station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see “Setting up”...
