The following is a table of reception loss vs. the transmission
medium. Each “wall” or obstruction decreases the transmission
range by the factor shown below.
Medium
RF Signal Strength Reduction
Glass (untreated)
5-15%
Plastics
10-15%
Wood
10-40%
Brick
10-40%
Concrete
40-80%
Metal
90-100%
Receiver /Indoor unit
After inserting the batteries into the Weather Station, all LCD segments
will be turned on for a few seconds, all possible display segments are
turned on for checking.
After this, the weather station will make initial measurement and start to
register the transmitter (the radio reception icon will be turned on). Do
not press any key before outdoor sensor data received, otherwise the
outdoor sensor learning mode will be terminated. When outdoor
transmitter has been registered, the base station will automatically
switch to the normal display mode from which all further settings can be
performed by the user
.
If no RCC signal is detected in the initial setup, the transmitter will try
once every two hours to get an RCC signal until a signal is received.
Once the transmitter receives the RCC signal it will transmit the signal
to the monitor. On the monitor the RCC tower icon will be displayed, if
the monitor doesn’t receive the RCC signal or loses the signal
continuously for 12 hours the RCC icon will not be display.
