Description

The 

Weather Station P03i-GPS

 for WS1/1000 Color/Style and WS1000 Connect

measures temperature, wind speed and brightness. It recognises precipitation and
receives the GPS signal for time and location (international time signal and positi-
on).

The weather station is suitable as accessory for KNX WS1000 Color/Style and as
spare part for WS1 Color/Style and WS1000 Color/Style which were produced from
July 2016 on. For older models of the controls please ask Elsner Elektronik for the
suitable weather station model. 

1.1. Scope of delivery

Weather station with a combination wall/pole mount

1.2. Technical specifications

The product conforms with the provisions of EU directives.

Installation and commissioning

2.1. Installation notes

Installation, testing, operational start-up and troubleshooting should 
only be performed by an electrician.

CAUTION!
Live voltage! 

There are unprotected live components inside the device.

National legal regulations are to be followed.

Ensure that all lines to be assembled are free of voltage and take
precautions against accidental switching on.

Do not use the device if it is damaged. 

Take the device or system out of service and secure it against
unintentional use, if it can be assumed, that risk-free operation is
no longer guaranteed.

The device is only to be used for the intended purpose described in this manual. Any
improper modification or failure to follow the operating instructions voids any and
all warranty and guarantee claims.

After unpacking the device, check it immediately for possible mechanical damage.
If it has been damaged in transport, inform the supplier immediately.

The device may only be used as a fixed-site installation; that means only when as-
sembled and after conclusion of all installation and operational start-up tasks and
only in the surroundings designated for it.

Elsner Elektronik is not liable for any changes in norms and standards which may
occur after publication of these operating instructions.

2.2. Installation position

Choose an installation position in the building where wind, rain and sun can be mea-
sured unhindered by the sensors. The weather station must not be installed under-
neath any structural parts from which water can still drip onto the rain sensor after
it has stopped raining or snowing. The weather station must not be shaded by an-
ything, such as building structures or trees. 

At least 60 cm of clearance must be left all round the weather station. This facilitates
correct wind speed measurement without eddies. The distance concurrently pre-
vents spray (raindrops hitting the device) or snow (snow penetration) from impai-
ring the measurement. It also does not allow birds to bite it.
Please take note that an extended awning does not shade the device from sun and
wind.

Temperature measurements can also be affected by external influences such as by
warming or cooling of the building structure on which the sensor is mounted, (sun-
light, heating or cold water pipes). 

Magnetic fields, transmitters and interfering fields from electricity consumers (e.g.
fluorescent lamps, neon signs, switched-mode power supplies etc.) can interfere
with or even cut out reception of the GPS signal.

2.3. Attaching the mount

The weather station comes with a combination wall/pole mount. The mount comes
adhered by adhesive strips to the rear side of the housing.

Fasten the holder vertically to the wall or pole.
