This sensor can also be freely addressed for display within the outdoor display area
at the top right of the display (refer to Page 6).
This address can be defined as required according to Section 2.3.4).
The electronics housing can then be installed at the required location and the tem-
perature sensor placed in or on the required object.
2.3.7 Outdoor radio sensor S 2010 A
The outdoor radio sensor S 2010 A enables the transmission of temperature and
humidity values related to the site of its installation.
This sensor can also be freely addressed for display within the outdoor display area
at the top right of the display (refer to Page 6).
This address can be defined as required according to Section 2.3.4).
The sensor should be installed in a shaded area because temperature information
in meteorological terms always relates to shaded areas. It can also be installed at
other sites, as required. It is only necessary to ensure that the solar cell which
provides the sensor with power is always exposed to light. The sensor should not
be located near obstacles, such as leaves, which cast shadows and interfere with
the power supply from the solar cell.
A good installation site, for example, is underneath a roof overhang.
The sensor is designed for installation on a mast or wall and should be mounted as
follows: Mount the sensor wall bracket either exactly vertical on a wall using four
screws or on a mast using the holding clamp.
Insert the sensor in the wall bracket and screw the parts together using the screws
supplied. The protective cover should be at the top and the solar cell exposed to
light.
During periods of darkness or bad weather with little or no sunlight, power is provi-
ded to the sensor by an internal, solar buffered, backup battery system.
2.3.8 Notes on storing the solar cell power supplied outdoor sensors
These sensors receive their operating power supply from a solar cell which buffers
an internal battery for periods of darkness. If such a sensor remains out of operati-
on for a longer period and receives no light, there is no risk to the internal battery if
the magnets, inserted to activate the operating voltage, are removed. The sensor
can thus remain stored, e.g. in its packing, for several years.
3. Operation
Following installation of the sensors and subsequently putting the base station into
operation (only terminate test mode after the last sensor test has been completed)
the data received appears in the
corresponding areas of the display. If nothing appears, refer to Section 6 ‘Faults’
note on eliminating faults.
Please note only that data is displayed for which the corresponding sensor as
been installed. This means, for example, that no rainfall measurement can be
displayed if no rainfall sensor has been installed.
