Frequently Asked Questions - WS10KS JUNG

How do I align the combination sensor for correct brightness measurements?

Align the sensor so that the precipitation window points to North. Use a compass for accurate orientation. This ensures the brightness sensors are correctly aligned with the cardinal points (East, South, West).

What is the maximum cable length for connecting the sensor to the weather station?

The sensor comes with a 10 m cable. It can be extended up to 50 m maximum using a shielded cable like LiYCY 6 x 0.25 mm².

How do I check if the wind wheel is working properly?

Ensure the wind wheel can turn freely. At low wind speeds, visually check if it rotates without obstruction. Any blockage may lead to inaccurate wind speed measurements.

How do I log in the combination sensor to the weather station?

Switch on the power. The sensor emits two brief tones every 5 seconds. Hold the supplied magnet against the integrated Reed contact until you hear 5 brief tones. The sensor will then transmit data to the weather station.

How do I optimize DCF77 time signal reception (for model WS 10 KSDCF)?

After login, hold the magnet against the Reed contact. The sensor indicates reception with brief tones at 1-second intervals. If tones are irregular, rotate the antenna (accessible from underside) with a screwdriver through 45° until a steady 1-second tone is heard. If still poor, relocate the sensor.

Can the sensor be used in freezing conditions?

Yes, the combination sensor has an integrated heating function to ensure trouble-free operation even in frost. The power supply must provide sufficient current (max 600 mA).

How do I clean the sensor?

Rainfall is usually sufficient to clean the enclosure surfaces where brightness and precipitation sensors are located. Avoid dust deposits for accurate measurements. Do not use harsh chemicals.

What is the minimum installation distance from a wall?

A minimum spacing of 0.5 m must be maintained to prevent incorrect measuring values due to negative influences on the sensors.

What is the power supply requirement for the sensor?

The sensor requires an external 24 V AC/DC ±15% supply (e.g., JUNG Art. no. WSSV10) with a maximum current consumption of 600 mA. The power consumption is 14.4 W max including heating.

How do I connect the sensor cable to the weather station?

Use the color-coded wires: pink (supply 24 V), grey (supply ground), green-yellow (shield), green (system voltage DC 24 V, >15 mA), yellow (data), white (sync.), brown (system ground). Connect the shield to earth potential if possible; otherwise leave unconnected.

USER MANUAL WS10KS JUNG

Operating Instructions Combination sensor

Black industrial-style telephone receiver with two dials and a bell (no visible text or symbols)

1. Safety warnings

Attention:

Electrical equipment must be installed and fitted by qualified electricians only and in strict observance of the relevant accident prevention regulations. Failure to observe any of the installation instructions may result in fire and other hazards.

2. Function

- The combination sensor can measure wind speed, precipitation brightness and twilight. Brightness can be measured separately for the cardinal points East, South and West.

- The combination sensor can be directly connected to a weather station (e.g. Art. no. 2224 REG W) which ensures further processing of th measured data and transmission to the bus in the form of switching or value telegrams. Bus subscribers as, for instance, the Info-Display ..2041.., the „Facility-Pilot“ visualization software and the LCD annunciator and control panel MT 701 can thus intervene into control processes, generate messages, or control weather-dependent processes. Resulting applications are in building services management control engineering, greenhouse control, or in further processing of the collected data in control and operating units.

- The combination sensor Art. no. WS 10 KSDCF is equipped with DCF77 receiver which can receive the legal German time and transmit the signals to the KNX/EIB bus (e.g. to synchronize KNX/EIB clocks).

- To ensure trouble-free service even in case of frost, the combination sensor can be heated.

- The combination sensor needs an external 24 V power supply, Art. no. WSSV10.

3. Installation

Important: Combination sensor with DCF77

Check the place of installation for optimal reception of the DCF77 time signal. Reflexions can cause reception interference. If no interference-free reception is possible, change the place of installation by a few meters until the combination sensor receives the time signal without interference (see chapter „Antenna orientation“).

• For installation on a tubular mast (∅ 35 ... 50 mm), a stainless-steel mounting bracket is supplied with the sensor (FIG.(1) .
• The combination sensor must be installed unobstructed by obstacles in all directions.

• When the combination sensor is installed in front of a wall, a minimum spacing of 0.5 m must be respected to prevent incorrect measuring values due to negative influence on the sensors.
• To enable the brightness sensors to clearly determine the sun's actual position, the combination sensor must be aligned with the help of a compass in such a way that the precipitation window points to the North (see FIG. 2). In this case, the brightness sensors are correctly aligned with the cardinal points (FIG.3).
• To ensure perfect wind speed measurements, the wind wheel must be able to turn freely. This can be checked visually at low wind speeds.

• To ensure perfect wind speed measurements, the wind wheel must be able to turn freely. This can be checked visually at low wind speeds.
• The part of the enclosure where the brightness and precipitation sensors are located (side and top of the device) should be free from dust deposits to avoid incorrect measuring values. In operation, rainfall is mostly sufficient to clean the enclosure surfaces.

3.1. Connection

- The combination sensor is provided with a 10 m-long connecting cable. The cable may be extended up to 50 m max. (recommended cable: LiYCY 6 x 0.25 mm _2 , shielded).

Connect the combination sensor to the weather station (FIG. 4):

(a) pink : supply AC/DC 24 V, 600 mA
(b) grey : supply ground
(c) green-yellow : shield
(1) green : system voltage DC 24 V, > 15 mA
(2) yellow : data
(3) white : sync.
(4) brown : system ground

④

- If possible, connect the shield of the combination sensor (yellow-green, (c)) to earth potential (not to GND!). If this is not feasible, the shield must remain unconnected. When the shield is connected with GND, trouble-free operation of the device cannot be guaranteed.

4. Commissioning

Commissioning includes logging in of the combination sensor at the weather station and pointing of the antenna for best reception. This can be done without a project and before final installation (e.g. at the workshop).

Log-in of the combination sensor

• Switch on the power. The combination sensor confirms that it is ready for operation by two brief tones repeated every 5 s (FIG. 5).
• Log in the combination sensor at the weather station. Hold the magnet supplied with the device against the integrated Reed contact (FIG. 6) so that 5 brief tones will be heard (FIG. 7). The combination sensor is now transmitting data to the weather station.
• Weather station and combination sensor will now be reset. The combination sensor confirms this action by a brief tone.

• Hold the magnet supplied with the device against the integrated Reed contact (FIG. 6) so that 5 brief tones will be heard (FIG. 7). Hold the magnet in this position.
• The combination sensor indicates reception of the time signal by brief tones (at 1-second intervals; interruption after each full minute) (FIG. 8).
• Important: The quality of the time signal is independent of tone length.
• If the tones are heard only irregularly or not at all, the receiving antenna must re-orientated. The antenna is accessible from the underside of the combination sensor (FIG. 9). The antenna can be turned through 45°. Turn the antenna with a screwdriver until a brief tone signal is heard every second.
• Important: If – after re-orienting the antenna – the reception is still not good enough, install the device at another location.
• Take the magnet away from the sensor. The combination sensor confirms the removal with 5 elong tone (FIG.10).
