WS 1907 digital rain gauge with DCF radio clock
Starting up
‚
Proceed in the order listed below and first
insert the batteries into the rain gauge. Only
then can the base station function properly.
‚
Do not use rechargeable batteries, since
their voltage is too low (only 1.2 V instead of
1.5 V). This affects, among other things, the
precision of the measurements.
‚
Where possible, use alkaline rather than
zinc-carbon batteries. Alkaline batteries
last longer, especially at low outdoor
temperatures.
