Once you have found a favourable location, insert the earth peg deep into the ground in order to
ensure the stability of the combination sensor.
When selecting the installation site, take the safety of children, pets, vehicles,
etc into consideration.
Any risk of the combination sensor’s falling poses the risk of injury or danger
of damaging vehicles or other objects.
You can also use a hammer to insert the earth peg into the ground. However,
use a suitable piece of wood or similar in order not to damage the top end of
the pipe as this makes it impossible to connect the other pieces of pipe (loss
of warranty)!
Make sure that there are no pipes or similar installed in the area where you wish
to insert the peg into the ground (e.g. hoses for irrigation systems or similar).
b) Commissioning additional sensors
If you wish to use one or several additional temperature / humidity sensors, for example of
the type „ASH 2200US“, insert the batteries now into the sensor(s) with the right polarity.
You can operate up to 8 sensors.

c) Commissioning the base station
• Open the battery compartment on the back of the base
station (remove the installation base, if applicable).
• Insert four batteries (LR6/mignon/AA) with the correct
polarity into the battery compartment.
Use preferably alkaline batteries.
It is possible to use accumulators but these
reduce the operational life due to their lower
voltage / capacity.
• Close battery compartment.
• After you have inserted the batteries, all segments of the LCD are displayed briefly.
• After that, the base station activates the synchronisation mode for 5 minutes. During this
period, the device displays all received radio weather sensors in succession.
If all sensors used have already been received, you can terminate synchronisation mode
prematurely by pressing any key.
It must be guaranteed that the combination sensor has
already left its test mode, otherwise a normal reception isn’t possible. In case of doubt
the synchonisation mode of the base station should not be terminated manually.
• Normal display of all weather data takes place after synchronisation. Only the sunset and
sunrise together with the moon phase are not yet displayed because the time and the calendar
have to be set for this purpose.
• You can either hang the base station on a wall (there is a corresponding opening on the back)
or place it on a level surface with the installation base.
• If you want to use the foot, first put the front central spike of the foot into the supports on the
back side of the base station. Then, swing the foot a little bit back till the two rear spikes lock
into the catch supports at the buttom of the base station.
