It is beneficial to tentatively put the system into operation in close
proximity (e. g. on a table) in order to ensure correct function in the
configuration it is intended to be used.
5 System
Start
After inserting the batteries or respectively connecting the AC adapter
the LCD of the touch-screen weather station will for a few seconds
display all possible segments.
Immediately after this the unit will enter the check mode during which
for about 15 minutes all measured and received weather data are being
switched through, updated and displayed.
This phase allows the user of the touch-screen weather station to check
all cables for correct connection and all components for correct
function.
After completing the check mode – which can also be terminated
prematurely by once touching the TIME display in the upper left section
of the LCD – the touch-screen weather station will automatically switch
to the normal display mode from which all further setting can be
performed by the user.
Note:
•
Reception of the radio-controlled time information will only take
place after completion of the check mode (approx. 15 minutes).
This mode can however be discontinued and the time and date can
be set manually.
•
Prior to manual setting or reception of WWVB radio-controlled time
information there will be no recording of weather history data.
6 Placement
After the touch-screen weather station has been checked for correct
function with regard to the above points and found fit, the mounting of
the system components can take place. It must be ensured however
that all components work properly from their chosen mounting or
standing locations. If there appear to be problems with the 433 MHz
wireless transmission they can mostly be overcome by slightly moving
the mounting locations.
