Set up Guide 

 

 

Before placing and installing all components of the weather station at there final destination, 
please set up the weather station with all parts being nearby for testing the correct function. 

 
Setting up the base station and transmitter 

Insert two pieces of LR6 (AA size) batteries into the transmitter, the LED located in the middle 
front case of transmitter will be turned on for 4 seconds, then it will be off and start to work 
normally. When there is a data transmission happened, the LED will be on for 20ms.   

 

After inserting the batteries into the Weather Station, all LCD segments will be turned on for a few 
seconds; all possible display segments are turned on for checking.         
   
After this, the weather station will make initial measurement and start to register the transmitter. 
Do not press any key before outdoor sensor data received, otherwise the outdoor sensor 
learning mode will be terminated. When outdoor transmitter has been registered, the base station 
will automatically switch to the normal display mode from which all further settings can be 
performed by the user

.

         

 

Register transmitter 

If no outdoor weather data is displayed or the signal to the sensors is lost during setting up, 
mounting, changing of batteries to the sensor or plugging or unplugging cables, simply press and 
hold the DOWN/- key for 4 seconds and a short beep will sound to synchronize the base station 
to sensors.    Without being synchronized, weather data will not be received. 

   

 

Note:

   

Commonly the radio communication between receiver and transmitter in the open field can reach 
a distance of up to 330 feet 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.    
 

Mounting the sensor 

 

Important Notes

On the edge of wind direction sensor, there are four alphabet letter of “N”,”E”,”S”and “W” 
representing for the direction of North, East, South and West. Wind direction sensor has to be 
adjusted so that the directions on the sensor are matching with your real location. Permanent 
wind direction error will be introduced when the wind direction sensor is not positioned correctly 
during installation. 
 
Wind speed sensor wire has to be inserted into the phone jacket on wind direction sensor. 
 
Wind direction sensor wire has to be inserted into the phone jacket located on the thermo-hygro 
sensor with marking of “Wind” on top. 
 
The rain sensor wire has to be inserted into the phone jacket located on the thermo-hygro sensor 
with marking of “Rain” on top.
