Connecting Mode" Menu - HomeMatic WDC7000 Operating Manual

- Select the "SYSTEM" menu then the "ALTITUDE" option (via BEEP, DCF, DST and
INTERVAL) and the following appears:
ALTITUDE
- Touch "ENTER" and the following appears:
ALTITUDE
- Touch "+" or "-" to set the geographical height of the location above sea level in
metres.
- Wait for a few seconds. The adjusted data for the relative barometric pressure will then
appear on the display.
Alternatively, the value can also be entered via the PC program.
"RAIN CAL", entering the rain sensor adjustment value
The rainfall measuring system is factory-set to a high degree of accuracy, so it does not
usually need to be adjusted.
The adjustment value must first be calculated in normal mode, as described in the
section titled "Adjusting the rainfall measuring sensor".
- Select the "SYSTEM" menu then the "RAIN CAL" option (via BEEP, DCF, DST,
INTERVAL and ALTITUDE) and the following appears:
RAIN CAL
- Touch "ENTER" and the following appears:
RAIN CAL
- Touch "+" or "-" to set the previously calculated value.
- Wait for a few seconds. The device will then return to normal mode.
Alternatively, the value can also be entered via the PC program.
"SUN CAL", configuring the brightness threshold for hours of sunshine
The WDC7000 weather station works in conjunction with the WDS100-C6-O combina-
tion sensor to determine the hours of sunshine. The threshold value is set on the base
station and transmitted to the combination sensor. This sensor then evaluates the data:
Brightness received at sensor greater than threshold value → sun shining
Brightness received at sensor lower than threshold value
The user can set the brightness threshold on an individual basis in order to adapt the

sensor to local conditions. The threshold value should be defined as when the sun co-
mes up or goes down so that the current brightness value can be used to calculate the
threshold.
Example: After sunrise the brightness value is 131, for example. This means that the
threshold value should be set to 131 so that the hours of sunshine start to be counted
from that point.
- Select the "SYSTEM" menu then the "SUN CAL" option (via BEEP, DCF, DST,
INTERVAL, ALTITUDE and RAIN CAL) and the following appears:
SUN CAL
- Touch "ENTER" and the following appears:
SUN CAL 131 + 085 -
- Touch "+" or "-" to set the threshold value. The setting range runs from 0 to 255.
- Wait for a few seconds. The device will then return to normal mode.

"CONNECTING MODE" menu

In connecting mode you can teach-in the internal sensors of the WDC7000 to other
WDC7000 stations and to the HomeMatic central control unit. To do this, you must set
the corresponding connection partners and the WDC7000 to teach-in mode.
CONNECTING MODE
- To launch teach-in mode touch "OK" and the following appears:
CONNECTING
The WDC7000 is now in teach-in mode. Once the teach-in procedure has been comple-
ted successfully, teach-in mode and the configuration menu are exited. If no teaching-in
is performed for 20 seconds, teach-in mode and the configuration menu are exited.
