resynchronised each time after you change
the batteries in the measuring or base
station.
• To do this, remove the batteries from the
other station and then reinsert them, or
change them as required.

5. Installation
Note – Installation
• We recommend initially placing the base
and measuring stations in the intended
locations without installing them and
making all the settings described in
6.
Operation
– to do.
• Only install the stations once the
appropriate settings have been made and a
stable wireless connection is established.
Note
• The wireless transmission range between
the measuring station and base station is
up to 30 m in open spaces.
• Before installation, ensure that wireless
transmission will not be disrupted by
interference or obstacles like buildings,
trees, vehicles, high-voltage lines, etc.
• To avoid transmission interference, do not
operate adjacent wireless devices on the
same frequency (433 MHz).
• Before the final installation, ensure that
there is sufficient reception between the
intended installation locations.
• When installing the measuring station,
ensure that it is protected from direct
sunlight and rain.
• The international standard height for
measuring air temperature is 1.25 m (4 ft)
above ground.
Warning
• Buy special or suitable installation
material from a specialised dealer for
wall-mounting.
• Ensure that no faulty or damaged parts
are installed.
• Never apply force during installation. This
could damage the product.
• Before installation, ensure that the chosen
wall is suitable for the weight to be
mounted, and make sure that there are no
electrical wires, water, gas or other lines at
the installation site on the wall.
5.1 Base station
• Use the base to position the base station on
a level surface.
5.2 Measuring station
• You can also position the measuring station
on a level outdoor surface.
• We recommend installing the measuring
station securely on an outdoor wall using the
recess (27).
• Install an anchor, screw, nail, etc. in the wall
of your choice.
• Hang up the base/measuring station using the
opening (27) intended for this purpose.
6. Operation
6.1 Connection to the measuring station
• When the batteries have been inserted, the
base station automatically searches for a
connection to the measuring station and to
the radio signal.
