4.3.9 "CLEANING" menu, cleaning mode
As the display is touched on a regular basis this can make it dirty, so it must be wiped
with a dry linen cloth from time to time (a cleaning cloth for spectacles is ideally suited
to this task; do not use any cleaning fluids as this could damage the display). To ensure
that you do not change any settings on the station when wiping the display, you can use
cleaning mode, which locks all touch fields for 20 seconds.
- Select the "CLEANING" menu:
NEXT CLEANING
- Touch "ENTER" and the following appears:
CLEANING
- Touch "START" and the following appears:
CLEANING
- You can now clean the display. After 20 s the normal display will reappear.
4.3.10 "LIVE MODE" menu, calling the current weather data trend
In this mode, you can touch an additional field to prompt the combination sensor to send
its measured data at 1 second intervals for 10 seconds. So a single touch is all that is
needed to obtain the very latest weather data, enabling you to track the wind direction
and wind velocity trend, for example, for 10 seconds.
As the combination sensor switches to receive data more often when "LIVE MODE" is
active, it consumes more current, which has an adverse effect on battery life. Therefore,
the "LIVE MODE" menu can be used to set a period of time for which "LIVE MODE" will
remain active. During this period the main menu line will also display the "REQ" touch
field, which is used to request the live retrieval of data described above.
- Select the "LIVE MODE" menu:
NEXT LIVE MODE
- Touch "ENTER" and the following appears:

- Touch "+" or "-" to set the switch-on time for "LIVE MODE".
- Touch "BEGIN" and the following appears:
END
- Touch "+" or "-" to set the switch-off time for "LIVE MODE".
- Wait for a few seconds. The device will then return to normal mode and the data that
has just been set will become active.
- The menu line indicates that data is being transmitted to the combination sensor with
the message: "WAIT FOR TRANSMISSION". The weather station cannot be operated
for as long as this message is displayed.
- When "LIVE MODE" is active, the menu also displays the "REQ" touch field for retrie-
ving data:
