10. Setting up the base station
a) Connection
Before setting up the base station, mount and configure the outdoor sensor (see section 9).
• Connect the low-voltage power-in plug on the power adapter to the
power-in socket (8) on the base station.
• Plug the power adapter into a standard mains socket.
• The LED indicator (5) between the stand and the base station (see
diagram in section 8a) will turn red; when you start the base station
for the first time, the LED indicator will flash green for a few seconds.
The LED indicator shows the status of the base station:

The base station will automatically search for a signal from the outdoor sensor.
To manually search for a signal, press the Wi-Fi/sensor button (1).
If the base station does not detect the outdoor sensor, check whether the batteries in the sensor
are empty or inserted incorrectly. If necessary, press the reset button (16) on the outdoor sensor.
This weather station does not come with an indoor sensor, therefore the indoor sensor LED
indicator (4) has no function and should be ignored.
