temperature  signal,  you  will  need  to  follow  the  battery  installation  procedure  again. 

To  perform  a  proper 

reset  wait  a  minimum  of  10  seconds  after  removing  the  batteries  before  re-inserting  for  both  the 

transmitter and receiver. 

 

Note: 

If the batteries are changed on the transmitter, the base station will resynchronise with the transmitter 

within the following 3 hours. If you want to shorten the time it takes to receive data, you must re-install the 

batteries in the base station so the new security code can be learnt right way. However the previous weather 

data and alarm value settings in the base station will be lost. 

 

Note:

 When batteries require replacement in the base station,  the low battery  indicator  will light up on the 

LCD.   

 

Please participate in the preservation of the environment by properly disposing of all used batteries at designated 

disposal points. Never dispose of batteries in a fire as this may cause an explosion/risk of fire or leakage of 

dangerous chemicals and fumes. 

 

 
 

3.2 Mounting 

1)  The base station 

With one foldable leg at the back of the unit the base station can be placed onto any flat surface or 

wall  mounted  using  the  hanging  holes  on  the  back  of the  unit.  It  is  important  to check  that  outdoor 

sensor data can be received before permanently mounting any of the units. 

 

2)    The remote sensor 

For accurate results, the remote sensor mast should be securely mounted in an open area away from 

trees or other coverings where rainfall or wind speed may be reduced causing inaccurate readings. 

 

a)   Mounting the wind sensor onto mast 

Firstly, check that the wind-fan can rotate freely before fixing the unit. The wind sensor should now 

be  mounted  using  the  screw  and  mast  provided  to  allow  the  wind  to  travel  around  the  sensor 

unhindered from all directions.

b) Mounting the rain sensor
