base station to the sensors otherwise no weather data will be received. Some weather readings such as wind speed and direction may not appear immediately on the LCD if the wind-fan or vane of the wind sensor is moved. This is due to the set reading time intervals for the wind readings. - Page 14 Mounting the Wind Sensor onto a mast Wind-vane Mast Wind-fan Firstly, check that the wind-fan and the wind-vane can rotate freely before fixing the unit. For correct and accurate readings it is important to mount the sensor so that the front (marked E) is pointing in East-West direction.
- Page 15 When securing into place, check that rain excess will not collect and store at the base of the unit but can flow out be- tween the base and the mounting surface (test by pouring clean water). After mounting the rain sensor, connect the cable to the thermo-hygro sensor at the corresponding socket so power supply can be received and data be transmitted to the base station...

Page 16: Resetting & Factory Settings
Resetting & factory settings: As previously mentioned, in the event of a power reset to the sensor (for example a change of batteries), the base station has to synchronize to the sensor again otherwise no weather data will be received. To do this, simply press and hold the PLUS(+) key for 2 seconds and a short beep will sound to synchronize the base station to the sensor. - Page 17 alarm Outdoor temperature 0.0ºC (low) 40.0ºC (high) alarm Indoor humidity 35%RH (low) 65%RH (high) alarm Outdoor humidity 45%RH (low) 70%RH (high) alarm Wind chill alarm 10.0ºC (low) 30.0ºC (high) Dew point alarm 0.0ºC (low) 30.0ºC (high) Rainfall 24h alarm 50.0mm Rainfall 1h alarm 1.0mm Wind Speed...

Page 34: Auto-Memory For Stored Values
example, if the high temperature alarm is set to +25°C and the current value moves to +25°C, the alarm will be activated (if it has been enabled). Now when the temperature drops to +24.9°C or below and thereafter again increases to beyond +25°C, the data will be blinking, but no alarm will be activated. -
Page 35: Accessories: Extensions Cables
Accessories: adding cable extensions For your convenience, additional telephone cables to increase the connection distance between each of the units may be purchased from any reputable hardware store. Simply add these to the current cables to extend your cable connection distance. - Page 36 Once the sensor is powered up, press and hold the PLUS(+) key for approx. 2 seconds in the normal display mode, the base station will sound a short beep and synchronize to the sensor otherwise no weather data will be received. Battery change only in the base station: Connect power adaptor to base station and power outlet.
