Important Notes
System Start
Insert two LR6 (AA) size batteries into the transmitter first and replace the battery cover.
The LED located on one side of the battery compartment, towards the wind sensors at
the front of the sensor array will illuminate for 4 seconds, then go off and begin to flash
intermittently (approximately every 48 seconds). If the LED does not light up or stays
on permanently make sure the batteries are inserted the correct way.
Note:
The LED can be hard to see in bright light.
Insert three LR6 (AA size) batteries into the Base Station/Console. 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.
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 adjusting the mounting locations.
Note:
The radio communication between the receiver and transmitter in an open
field can reach up to 100m providing that there are no interfering obstacles such as
buildings, trees, vehicles, high-voltage lines, etc. Sources of radio interference such as
PC screens, radios, or TV sets, can in extreme 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 because 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 radio reception
icon will be turned on). Do not touch the Base Station before the outdoor data is
