SETTING UP:
1. First, insert the batteries into the Weather Station (see “
How to install and replace
batteries in the Weather Station
”
below
)
. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of
the LCD will light up briefly and a short signal tone will sound. Following the display of the
time as 0:00, the seconds, the date as 1.1.04, the moon and stars icons, the weather icons,
air pressure 1013.0 hPa and some weather information, the indoor temperature and
humidity will be measured. If the indoor temperature and humidity are not displayed after 30
seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 15 seconds before reinserting them.
Once the indoor data is displayed proceed to step 2.
2. Within 3 minutes of activating the Weather Station, place the batteries into the transmitter
(see “
How to install and replace batteries in the Outdoor Thermo-hygro transmitter
“
below).
3. After inserting the batteries into the transmitter, the Weather Station will start receiving data
from the transmitter. The outdoor temperature and humidity should then be displayed on the
Weather Station. If this does not happen after 3 minutes, the batteries will need to be
removed from both units and reset from step 1.
4. The Weather Station can receive up to 3 remote Thermo-hygro transmitters. If you have
purchased additional transmitters, repeat from step 2 for all extra transmitters. However,
ensure that you leave 10 seconds in between the reception of the last transmitter and the
set-up of the following transmitter. The Weather Station will number the transmitters in the
order of set-up, i.e. the first transmitter will have the temperature and humidity displayed
with the number 1 against it and so on.
5. With less than 3 transmitters received, the weather station will try to pick up the remaining
one in approximately 3 minutes. If 3 transmitters are received, the weather station will stop
further reception.
6. Once the outdoor temperature and humidity reception has been completed and data had
been displayed on the Weather Station, the DCF-77 time code reception is automatically
started. This takes typically between 3-5 minutes in good conditions.
7. If after 10 minutes, the DCF time has not been received, use the SET key to manually enter
a time initially.
The clock will automatically attempt to receive the DCF time from 2:00 to
6:00 am for a successful reception. When DCF signal reception is successful, the received
time will override the manually set time. The date is also updated with the received time.
The next reception attempt will occur on the following day. (Please refer also to notes on
“Radio controlled Time Reception”
and
“Manual Time Setting”
).
HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE WEATHER STATION
The Weather Station uses 3 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries. When batteries need to be replaced,
the low battery symbol will appear on the LCD.
