4. Open the base station’s battery cover located at the back of
the unit and insert 3 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries into the
battery compartment and close the battery cover
Setting up using the AC adaptor:
1) Power up all the sensors as described in setting up using
batteries above
2) Using the AC adaptor (included), plug it into the mains outlet
and power up the base station by inserting the adaptor jack
into the DC 6.0V socket located on the side of the base
station
Every time the thermo/hygro sensor is powered up (for example
after a change of batteries), a random security code is
transmitted and this code must be synchronized with the base
station to receive weather data.
When the base station is powered up, a short beep will sound
and all LCD segments will light up for about 5 seconds before it
enters into a 15 minute learning mode to learn the sensors
security code. After the learning mode (or by pressing the
MIN/MAX key at anytime), the base station will start the WWVB
radio controlled time reception.
Note for WWVB Radio Controlled Time:
The time and date display is based on the signal provided by the
highly accurate government operated atomic clock in Ft. Collins,
Colorado. This radio controlled clock does not only provide for
the weather station’s time and date display but also functions as
the time and date source for all of this weather station’s memory
and history values using time and date information.
