Wireless Desktop Weather Station
3. Setup Guide
3.1 Battery Installation:
Note:
To avoid operating problems, please take note of battery polarity be-
fore/when inserting any Alkaline Batteries (permanent damaged could be
introduced by inserting the battery in wrong direction). Use good quality Alkaline
Batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries.
1)
Insert two AAA batteries into the remote sensor.
2)
Insert three AA batteries into the weather station straight afterward.
3)
Within 3 minutes (but probably sooner) the outdoor temperature
should be received by the weather station.
Do not press any keys
before the outdoor sensor data is received
.
4)
Once the outdoor connection has been established, mount the units
ensuring that the receiver can still pick up the signal from the
transmitter. Position the remote sensor at the desired location
indoors/outdoors and it will transmit the temperature from its location.
Every time the remote sensor is powered up (for example after a change of
batteries) a random security code is transmitted that must be synchronized with
the base station to receive weather data. Therefore, if the batteries from the
remote sensor were changed, then the display console must also be powered
up again to re-learn the transmitter so it can receive data. The most effective
way to do this is to remove all batteries from both parts, wait one minute with
both units unpowered, then re-insert all batteries again within a 30-second time
period.
When the display console is powered up, a short beep will sound and all LCD
segments will light-up for 3 seconds before it enters learning-mode in order to
identify the remote sensors security code. Following this period, the base
station will then start the DCF radio controlled time reception. The console will
commence Radio-Controlled Clock reception period and no weather data
will be received during this period of time. If the RCC signal can’t be found
within 1 minute, the search process will be cancelled and will automatically
re-attempt every two hours until the signal is successfully received. The regular
radio-frequency link will be resumed once the RCC reception routine has been
completed.
