Precipitation Sensor
Manual
rain[e]H3 can issue the following errors:
• Overheating error
• Heating error
• Lower temperature sensor (in the interior) error
• Upper temperature sensor (at funnel and ring) error
• Initialisation RTC (real time clock) error
• Outer temperature sensor error
• Power supply error
Overheating error
This error occurs when one of the internal temperature sensors detects a temperature in excess of the configured
“maximum heating temperature”. The factory-provided threshold of the maximum heating temperature is 15 °C.
In this case
rain[e]H3
switches automatically OFF until the temperature falls below the error threshold.
Heating error
This error occurs when insufficient heating capacity is available and the heating current (measured internally)
falls below the threshold of 5.1 A.
Lower temperature sensor error
This error occurs when the lower temperature sensor for heater monitoring stops sending data.
Upper temperature sensor error
This error occurs when the upper temperature sensor for heater monitoring stops sending data.
Initialisation RTC (real time clock) error
This error occurs when the initialisation the RTC (real time clock) fails.
Outer temperature sensor error
This error occurs when the outer temperature sensor for heater monitoring stops sending data.
Power supply error
This error occurs when the quality of the supply voltage varies extremely.
To simulate precipitation amounts, and consequentially to check the output signals at the analogue and impulse
outputs, choose the desired precipitation amount in the rider “simulation” and click “simulate precipitation” (nimbus
symbol). After this, the outputs give the desired amount according to the settings.
