Details for the installation of the weather station 

Do not open the weather station if water (rain) might ingress: Even some drops 
might damage the electronic system.  
Observe the correct installation. Wrong installation might destroy the weather 
station and the control electronics.  
 
Please take care not to damage the temperature sensor (small circuit board at the 
bottom part of the housing.) when mounting the weather station. Please also take 
care not to break away or bend the cable connection between the circuit board 
and the rain sensor when connecting the weather station. 
 

Installation of operating unit 

The operating unit is battery-powered and communicates with the weather 
station per radio. 
When you select the assembly site, please avoid direct sun because this would 
distort the measurements of the indoor temperature. The appropriate sensor is 
integrated in the lower part of the operating unit. For the same reason, the 
operating unit should not be installed above the heater. Please make also sure 
that there is no direct air supply coming from windows or doors which would 
distort measured values.  

The operating unit may be installed and operated in dry  

interior rooms only. Relative air humidity may not exceed 80%.  

Avoid condensation.  

 

Notes on radio installations 

When planning facilities with devices that communicate via radio, adequate radio 
reception must be guaranteed.  The range of wireless control will be limited by 
legal regulation and structural circumstances. Avoid sources of interference and 
obstacles between receiver and transmitter, that could disturb the wireless 
communication. Those would be for example: 

•

 

Walls and ceilings (especially concrete). 

•

 

Metal surfaces next to the wireless participants (e. g. aluminium 
construction of a conservatory). 

•

 

Other wireless devices and powerful local transmitters (e.g. wireless 
headphones), which transmit on the same frequency (868,2 MHz). Please 
maintain a minimum distance of 30 cm between wireless transmitters for 
that reason.
