Before commissioning

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

Place the base unit (receiver) and sensor (transmitter) as close together as possible.
Connect the power supply to the base unit and wait until the indoor temperature is displayed.
Establish power supply for the sensor.
Set up/operate the base unit and sensor within the effective transmission range.
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 andreinsert 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 receivedcorrectly.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 centimeters is enough!

Setting up power supply

Base unit

Remove the battery compartment cover.
Insert the batteries into the battery compartment. Ensure that the battery polarity (+/-) is correct.
Replace the battery compartment cover. Thermo-Hygrometer
Remove the battery compartment cover.
Insert the batteries into the battery compartment. Ensure that the battery polarity (+/-) is correct.
Replace the battery compartment cover.

NOTICE! The power supply of the wind / rain gauge is ensured via the cable connection to the thermo-hygrometer. (For more information, see the chapter ‘Installing the multisensor set’)

Installing the multisensor set

Illustration 4: Mounting example

Assemble the individual parts of the mounting tube.
Carefully run the connection cable from the windmeter/rain gauge through the mounting tube and the mounting shoe.
Insert one end of the mounting tube into the opening below the windmeter/rain gauge and the other end into the opening of the mounting shoe.CAUTION! Make sure that the cable is not being damaged when inserting the tube!
Attach the windmeter/rain gauge and the mounting shoe to the mounting tube with the fixing screws through the drill holes.
Attach the mounting shoe to a horizontally and vertically aligned pole or a wall with the enclosed mounting material in at least 2 meters height.
Remove the battery compartment cover of the thermo-hygrosensor.
Insert the modular plug on the other end of the cable into the modular socket of the thermo-hydro sensor.CAUTION! Before inserting or removing the modular plug, press down the locking lug!
Mount the thermo-hygrosensor below the windmeter/rain gauge.

Automatic time setting

After the power supply was established, the clock will automatically search for the radio signal. Theclock will automatically search for the radio signal.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 DOWN/RAIN HISTORY button and UP/RCC/ALARM button for approx. 2 seconds to re-initiate radio signal reception.2. If the device is still not receiving the signal, the time must be set manually.Read the detailed manual for more information about manual time settings and other user-defined settings (see download information on page 2).

Barometric / Atmospheric PressureAtmospheric Pressure is the pressure at any location on earth, caused by the weight of the column ofair above it. One atmospheric pressure refers to the average pressure and gradually decreases as altitude increases. Meteorologists use barometers to measure atmospheric pressure. Since variation in atmospheric pressure is greatly affected by weather, it is possible to forecast the weather by measuring the changes in pressure.

Press the BARO button to enter the setting mode.
Press the BARO button again, to change the unit between inHg / mmHg / hPa.
Press the BARO button for 3 seconds to change between absolute and relative atmospheric pressure.• ABSOLUTE: the absolute atmospheric pressure of your location.• RELATIVE: the relative atmospheric pressure based on the sea level.Set relative atmospheric pressure value
Get the atmospheric pressure data of the sea level (it is also the relative atmospheric pressure data of your home area) through the local weather service, internet and other channels.
Hold the BARO button for approx. 3 seconds, until ABSOLUTE or RELATIVE flashes.
Press the UP or DOWN button to switch to RELATIVE mode.
Press the BARO button again, and the number for RELATIVE flashes.
Press UP or DOWN button to change the value.
Press the BARO button to save and exit the setting mode.NOTE
The default relative atmospheric pressure value is 1013 mb/hPa (29.91 inHg), which refers to the average atmospheric pressure.
When you change the relative atmospheric pressure value, the weather indicators will change along with it.
The built-in barometer can notice the environmental absolute atmospheric pressure changes. Based on the data collected, it can predict the weather conditions in the forthcoming 12 hours. Therefore, the weather indicators will change according to the detected absolute atmospheric pressure after you operate the clock for 1 hour.
The relative atmospheric pressure is based on the sea level, but it will change with the absolute atmospheric pressure changes after operating the clock for 1 hour.

Wind speed and direction

Reading the wind direction

Wind direction indicator	Meaning
	Real-time wind direction
	Wind directions appeared in the last 5 minutes (max. 6)

Select display modePress the WIND button several times until the desired rate is displayed:• AVERAGE: average of all wind speed numbers recorded in the previous 30 seconds• GUST: highest wind speed (gust) recorded from last reading

The wind level provides a quick reference on the wind condition and is indicated by a series of text icons:

Wind level	LIGHT	MODERATE	STRONG	STORM
Speed	1 – 19 km/h	20 – 49 km/h	50 – 88 km/h	> 88 km/h

Select wind speed unit

Press the WIND button for approx. 3 seconds to enter the setting mode.
Press the UP or DOWN button to change the unit between mph (miles per hour), m/s (miles per second), km/h (kilometer per hour) or knots.
Press the WIND button to save the settings and exit the setting mode.

Wind chill factorThe wind chill factor is shown in the “WIND CHILL” field on the display.Note:The wind chill factor is based on the common effects of temperature and wind speed.The displayed wind chill is calculated solely from temperature and wind speed and is measured by the outdoor sensor.
