2.2.4 SETTING UP THE MAIN UNIT
You are highly recommended to connect the AC/DC adaptor. For the feature of the automatic backlight control
function, the AC/DC adaptor must be used.
PLACEMENT TIPS:
Make sure that the main unit is within receiving range of all remote sensors. Ideally sensors should be within the line of
sight of the console unit. Transmission range may be affected by trees, metal structures and electronic appliances.
Test reception before permanently mounting your weather station.
The main unit measures indoor temperature, humidity, pressure and receives signals from all remote sensors and
radio-clock broadcasts. Avoid placing the console unit in the following areas:
• Direct sunlight and surfaces which radiate and emit heat.
• Near heating and ventilation devices, such as heating ducts or air conditioners.
• Areas with interference from wireless devices (such as cordless phones, radio headsets, baby listening devices) and
electronic appliances.
STARTING UP THE MAIN UNIT
Once the console unit is properly powered, the display will start showing some data and weather parameters. Wait for
a few minutes for the console to finish self-calibration and for the sensor readings to show up.
If “---” is still displayed for the sensor reading(s), check the wireless transmission path and the batteries for the
corresponding sensor.
