Before starting operation

NOTICE

Avoid connection faults!

In order to avoid connection problems between the devices, the following points must be observed during commissioning.

  1. Place the base unit (receiver) and sensor (transmitter) as close together as possible.
  2. Connect the power supply to the base unit and wait until the indoor temperature is displayed.
  3. Establish power supply for the sensor.
  4. Set up/operate the base unit and sensor within the effective transmission range.
  5. Make sure that the base unit and the radio sensor are set to the same channel.

When changing the batteries, always remove the batteries in both the base unit and the sensor and reinsert them in the correct order so that the radio connection can be re-established. If one of the two devices is operated via a mains power connection, the power connection for this device must also be disconnected briefly when changing the battery. If, for example, only the batteries in the sensor are replaced, the signal cannot be received or can no longer be received correctly.

Note that the actual range depends on the building materials used in the building and the position of the base unit and outdoor sensor. External influences (various radio transmitters and other sources of interference) can greatly reduce the possible range. In such cases, we recommend finding other locations for both the base unit and the outdoor sensor. Sometimes a shift of just a few centimetres is enough!

Setting up power supply

Basestation

  1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
  2. Insert the batteries into the battery compartment. Ensure that the battery polarity (+/-) is correct.
  3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
  4. Wait until the indoor temperature is displayed on the base station.

Remote sensor

  1. Loosen the screws at the battery compartment cover with a small Philips screwdriver and remove the cover.
  2. Insert the batteries into the battery compartment. Ensure that the battery polarity (+/-) is correct.
  3. Replace the cover and retighten it with the screw.

Battery replacement

  1. Press the RESET button on the sensor after every battery change.
  2. Press the SCAN button on the base station to re-establish pairing.

Attaching rubber linings

Attach the supplied self-adhesive rubber pads to the clamps as shown to ensure a firmer fitting of the mounting rod.

Remote sensor installation and mounting

Depending on the desired location, the remote sensor can be put on the table or mounted on the wall.

NOTICE! During the installation make sure that the device is minimum 1.5 meters off the ground.

The location should be as free as possible from obstacles to ensure an accurate measurement. The remote sensor should be installed / mounted horizontally and within 100 m of the base unit.

Installation on a vertical tube (maximal tube diameter: 26 mm)

  1. Place the back of the mounting base of the remote sensor on the tube and press the mounting clamp against the tube from the other side.
  2. Slide 4 screws through the bore holes of the mounting clamp and through the bore holes of the mounting base on the other site.
  3. Put on the 4 nuts and tighten the screw connection by hand.

Automatic time setting

After the power supply was established, the clock will automatically search for the radio signal. It takes about 3-8 minutes to complete this process.

If the radio signal is received correctly, the date and time will be set automatically and the radio control signal icon turns on.

If the clock fails to receive the time signal, go ahead with the following steps:

  1. Press RCC button on the base station until radio signal symbol flashes.
  2. If the device is still not receiving the signal, the time must be set manually.

Manual time setting

To set the time / date manually, first disable the reception of the time signal by pressing the RCC button for approx. 8 seconds.

  1. Press and hold CLOCK button for approx. 3 seconds to change to time setting mode.
  2. Digits to be set are flashing.
  3. Press UP or DOWN button to change the value.
  4. Press CLOCK button to confirm and continue to the next setting.
  5. Settings order: 12/24-hours mode > Hours > Minutes > Year > Month and Day > Day and Month > Time offset > Language > Daylight Saving Time (DST)
  6. Finally press the CLOCK button to save the settings and exit the setting mode.

Wake-up call setting

Setting the alarm time

  1. Press the ALARM button for approx. 2 seconds to enter the alarm time settings mode.
  2. Digits to be set are flashing.
  3. Press UP or DOWN button to change the value.
  4. Press the ALARM button to confirm the entry and move to the next setting.
  5. Settings sequence: Hours > minutes
  6. Finally, press the ALARM button to save the settings and exit the settings mode.

Switching the alarm clock (and frost warning) on/off

  1. Press the ALARM button to display the alarm time.
  2. Press the ALARM button again to enable the alarm. The symbol will displayed on the LCD.
  3. Press the ALARM button once more to activate the frost warning alarm time. The symbols and are shown on the display.
  4. To deactivate the alarm and frost warning, press the ALARM button until the alarm icons are no longer displayed.

Snooze function

  1. When the alarm sounds, press the SNZ/LIGHT button to activate the snooze function. Wake-up call sounds again after 5 minutes.
  2. When the alarm sounds, press any other key to stop the alarm until the set alarm time is reached again.
  3. If no key is pressed, the alarm is automatically switched off after 2 minutes.

Receiving measurements automatically

Once batteries are installed, the base station will display the measurement readings. Readings from the remote sensor will be displayed within 3 minutes after powering it on.

Rainfall

The base station displays how many millimeters / inches of rainfall are accumulated over a time period, based on the current rainfall rate, that is updated every minute.

Select display mode

Press the RAIN button several times until the desired time range is displayed:RATE: Current rainfall rate in past hourHOUR: Total rainfall rate for current hourDAY: Total rainfall rate within the current day, from midnightWEEK: Total rainfall rate for current weekMONTH: Total rainfall rate for current monthYEAR: Total rainfall rate for within a year (from first day of the year)

The measurement unit (millimeter or inch) for rainfall is selected via the MM / IN sliding switch.

Graphical histogram

  1. The Histogram presents an easy view of rainfall change pattern over a a period of time in a graphical manner.
  2. The time scale of the graph automatically changes according to the rainfall display modes. Settings order: Rate> Hour > Day > Week > Month > Year
  3. By default, the graph is presented in hourly scale.
  4. There is no graphical display when yearly rainfall is selected.

To Check history data:

  1. Press RAIN button to select rainfall display modes.
  2. Settings order: the last 24 hours > the last 31 days > the last 52 weeks > the last 12 months > the last 5 years

Since function for rainfall

  1. Press the SINCE button to display the total rainfall from a customized point in time.
