Important Notes

 

 

System Start 

Insert  two  LR6  (AA  size)  batteries  into  the  transmitter.    The  LED  located  in  the  middle  on  the  front  of  the 
transmitter will  illuminate for 4 seconds then  go off.    The transmitter will make an initial data transmission 
and then start the radio controlled time reception routine.    If the time signal can be detected correctly the 
LED will flash 5 times and then remain on for 20s, indicating the time signal has been found correctly 

(note no 

time  signal  is  available  in  Aus/NZ)

.    When reception  of the time  signal is  not  possible the transmitter will 

terminate radio controlled time reception after no more than five minutes and resume normal transmission.   
During the radio controlled time reception period there is no transmission of the outdoor weather data to the 
console. 
 
Insert two LR6 (AA size) batteries into the Base Station.    The console will illuminate for a few seconds with all 
the display segments illuminated for checking.    After this the Base Station will make an initial measurement 
and start to register the transmitter (the Outdoor Reception Signal icon will be turned on). Do not touch the 
Base  Station  before  the  outdoor  data  is  received  or  the  outdoor  sensor  learning  mode  will  be  terminated. 
When the outdoor transmitter has been registered the  Base Station will automatically switch to the normal 
display mode from which all further settings can be adjusted by the user.         
 
If no radio controlled clock (RCC) signal is detected during the initial setup, the transmitter will try once every 
hour  to  get  the  RCC  signal  until  a  signal  is  received.    Once  the  transmitter  receives  the  RCC  signal  it  will 
transmit  the  signal  to  the  Base  Station  which  will  display  the  Radio  Controlled  Clock  icon  and  the  time  will 
synchronise to the RCC time.    If the Base Station does not receive the RCC signal or loses the signal the RCC 
icon will not be displayed. 
 

Positioning 

 

Once you have verified that all of the components of the weather station are working they can be positioned 
in their permanent places. Before permanently mounting make sure that all  the components work properly 
together at their chosen  mounting or standing locations. If there appear to be problems  with the  433 MHz 
radio transmission they can mostly be overcome by moving the mounting locations.       

 

Note:

 The radio communication between the receiver and transmitter in an open field can reach a distance of 

up  to  100m  providing  that  there  are  no  interfering  obstacles  such  as  buildings,  trees,  vehicles,  high 
voltage lines, etc. Radio interferences such as PC screens, radios or TV sets, can in bad cases entirely 
cut off radio communication. Please take this into consideration when choosing standing or mounting 
locations.       

 

Reconnecting Lost Signal 

If  no  outdoor  weather  data  is  displayed  as  a  result  of  loss  of  signal  during  set  up,  mounting,  changing  of 
batteries  in  the  transmitter  or  plugging  or  unplugging  cables,  simply  press  and  hold  the 

DOWN

  key  for  4 

seconds then release.    After this the Base Station will make an initial measurement and start to register the 
transmitter (the Outdoor Reception Signal icon will be turned on). Do not touch the Base Station before the 
outdoor  data  is  received  (this  may  take  several  minutes)  or  the  outdoor  sensor  learning  mode  will  be 
terminated. When the outdoor transmitter has been registered the Base Station will automatically switch to 
the normal display mode from which all further settings can be adjusted by the user.       
 

Note:

 When replacing batteries in the transmitter wait two minutes before re-inserting for a proper reset. 

 
Wind Direction 

On  the  edge  of  the  wind  direction  sensor,  there  are  four  letters  -  “N”,  ”E”,  ”S”  and  “W”  representing  the 
directions North, East, South and West. The wind direction sensor has to be adjusted so that the directions on 
the  sensor  are  matching  your  real  location.  A  permanent  wind  direction  error  will  be  introduced  when  the
