Installation

Battery Installation:

Inserting the batteries into the outdoor sensor suite will power up the station and activate the attached sensors.

  1. Locate the battery compartment underneath the Rain Collector. Turn the screw anti-clockwise to loosen the metal latch which can be moved aside to gain access to the battery compartment.

  1. Insert 2 x AA Alkaline batteries into the battery tray, then firmly slide the tray back into the battery compartment. Ensure that the station is powered-up by making sure that the LED next to the battery tray illuminates for 4 seconds.

Battery Installation Continued:

Now power the display console by inserting 3 x AA batteries into the battery compartment at the back of the unit. When the console initially starts up, all segments of the display will illuminate briefly to ensure the screen is functioning correctly.

Following this, the weather station will make an initial measurement and begin receiving the outdoor readings. Do not press any keys before the outdoor data is received, as this will stop the console from searching for the outdoor sensor suite and the connection will not be established. After the outdoor readings have been registered, the console will enter the normal display mode and all functions will be available. Every time there is a transmission of data between the sensor suite and the display console, the LED next to the battery compartment will flash.

The display console will then begin searching for the Radio Controlled Clock (RCC) signal in order to automatically set the time and date. Once this signal has been received, the time will automatically adjust and the RCC tower icon will be displayed on the console. If no signal is detected during the initial setup phase, or if the signal is lost for over 12 hours, the transmitter will attempt to receive this signal at 2-hour intervals until it is picked up. The best time to receive the RCC signal is during the night – normally between 0:00 and 4:00 when there is significantly less atmospheric interference.

Please note: If you change the batteries in the outdoor transmitter unit, the display console will take around three hours to receive the outdoor signal again. If you'd like to speed this synchronization process up, you can re-insert the batteries into the display console again so that the new identification code is learned straight away, but any stored weather data and alarm settings will be lost.

The ClimeMET CM2026 has a transmission range of 100 metres in an open field - please remember that any obstacles such as buildings or trees will reduce this range. Nearby electronics such as computers, radios and televisions can also interfere with the radio signal used by the station, so please keep this in mind if you encounter any problems and re-locate the system accordingly.

Sensor Assembly

Before mounting the station at your chosen location, it's worth setting up the weather station properly so that all functions can be tested prior to installation. If there are any problems during the assembly of the sensors, it may not be so easy to access the system later on.

The ClimeMET CM2026 uses a mast that will already have the majority of the sensors installed – the thermo-hygro transmitter, rain collector and wind direction sensor will already be attached. The only sensor that needs to be connected is the set of wind cups.

Attaching the Wind Cups:

  1. Push the wind cups firmly onto the steel shaft at the bottom of the anemometer unit, directly underneath the wind vane. Look closely at the shape of the shaft to be sure the cups are being attached securely.
  2. Using the Allen Key supplied, tighten the set screw on the side of the wind cups.
  3. Spin the wind cups in order to test they are connected correctly. If the wind cups rotate freely and do not 'stick', the anemometer is ready for installation.

Sensor Assembly Continued

Please note: On the edge of the wind direction sensor there are the letters N, E, S & W representing the four cardinal directions. When installing the weather station in your chosen location, it's vital to ensure that the sensor suite is properly oriented otherwise the wind direction readings will be incorrect. It's also important to make sure that the sensor suite is level – please use the bubble level to verify this.

Choosing Your Location

The ClimeMET CM2026 uses a fixed sensor-suite, which ensures that the system is straightforward to install and requires low maintenance. As all of the sensors are part of one unit, choosing the location to install the system can have a significant impact on some of the parameters that the station will measure. It generally won't be possible to attain a scientific-standard installation with a fixed sensor-suite, so you may want to compromise depending on which readings are of most-interest. Please consider the following:

Air Temperature is typically measured at 1 to 1.5 Metres above ground level. The shield covering the temperature sensor ensures that the sensor itself is shaded and ventilated, which will maintain the accuracy of the temperature readings. A general rule for achieving the best accuracy is keeping the station at twice the distance of any nearby object's height, so for example 20ft away from a 10ft tree.
- Rainfall is normally measured at around 30cm above ground level. At elevated heights, higher-wind speeds will have an effect on the catchment of rainfall so readings may be reduced. Further down the line, the rain collector may also need to be cleared if any leaves or debris create a blockage, so it's worth considering the accessibility of the station beforehand.
- The optimal height for wind speed measurements is around 10 metres above ground. This will typically not be possible for residential installations, so it's often advised to mount alongside a chimney or existing mast if available. If doing so, try to have a clearance of at least a metre in height between the weather station and roof line.

Console Setup

While on the home screen, press and hold the SET key for two seconds to enter the Setup menu. When you enter the setup menu, the time will no longer be shown on the display console and you will instead see flashing values that can be altered. To move through each different option in the setup menu, simply press the SET key. While on a section that you wish to change, use the + key to increase the values and the MIN/MAX key to decrease. Holding down either of these keys will change these values quicker. To exit the Setup menu at any time, press the HISTORY key.

The different sections of the Setup menu are as follows:

  • LCD Screen Contrast - Can be changed from 0 (lighter) to 8 (darker)
  • Time Zone Setting – Please note: This console receives the DCF77 Radio Signal broadcast from Frankfurt, Germany. This means that the Time Zone values are one hour ahead of regular GMT time zones. For example, when the time zone is set to '0' it will display German time as received through the DCF77 signal, so for use in the UK this would need to be set to '-1'
  • 12/24 Hour Display
  • Manual Time Setting (Hours/Minutes)
  • Date Format - DD/MM or MM/DD
  • Calendar Setting (Year/Month/Date)
  • Wind Speed units – km/h, m/s, bft, mph or knots
  • Wind Direction
  • Rainfall Units - mm or inch
  • Temperature Units – Celsius or Fahrenheit

Programme Mode

Quick Display Mode:

While on the home screen, press the SET key to enter the Quick Display mode. Pressing the SET key multiple times will scroll through the following values:

  • Wind speed - Pressing the + key while viewing this figure will toggle between Wind speed and Gust speed.
  • Rainfall figures - Pressing the + key will scroll through the selectable time periods of 1 hour, 24 hours, week, month and total. If you need to clear your rainfall reading, use + to scroll until you are viewing the total reading, then press and hold SET for two seconds to reset this value to zero.
  • Outdoor Temperature / Wind Chill / Dew Point – Press the + key to scroll between these three measurements.

Calibration Mode

To enter the Calibration Mode, press and hold the HISTORY key for eight seconds. You can then press the SET key to scroll through each menu and press the + or MIN/MAX keys to increase or decrease the values accordingly. To exit the Calibration mode press the HISTORY key at any time.

Calibration options are as follows:

  • Wind Speed Calibration (Default 1.0, adjustment range 0.75 to 1.25)
  • Rainfall Data Calibration (Default 1.0, adjustment range 0.75 to 1.25)
  • Historic Rainfall Calibration
  • Outdoor Humidity Calibration
  • Outdoor Temperature Calibration
  • Indoor Humidity Calibration
  • Indoor Temperature Calibration

Please take care when changing any data, as certain figures will affect other measurements calculated by your console. For example, the wind chill measurement will be worked out using a combination of the wind speed and outdoor temperature readings. Therefore, if the outdoor temperature reading is calibrated using this menu, please be wary that this would also change the calculation of the wind chill readings.

Wind Speed:

Wind speed is the parameter most-affected by the possible constraints of the installation. Ensure that the weather station isn't located close to buildings, trees or other obstructions. The wind gain multiplier can be changed to increase/decrease your wind speed readings if you can be certain they are being significantly affected by the surroundings and you have an appropriate, calibrated source to compare these to.

Rainfall:

The rain collector is calibrated to tip per 0.3mm or rainfall. If you believe this reading to be incorrect, place a 5" diameter cylindrical rain gauge next to the station at the exact same height – small rain gauges will not be comparable. With the rain gauges placed next to each other, compare the rainfall totals for three storms and develop an average based on this to determine how far off the readings are.

Temperature:

It may be possible for temperature readings to be affected when placed too close to a heat source, such as a nearby surface that radiates heat. If you need to calibrate the temperature, we'd recommend comparing this to a spirit thermometer as some digital thermometers will have their own margin of error. Comparing temperature readings to another nearby station is also not generally recommended due to discrepancies in timing, height, location and surrounding objects, as well as potential calibration errors residing in the other system. If you need to calibrate the temperature, place the ClimeMET CM2026 in a shaded, controlled environment next to a fluid thermometer and allow the sensor to stabilize for 48 hours. You can then compare the temperature reading to that of the fluid thermometer and adjust the console as necessary.

Humidity:

Humidity can be a difficult parameter to measure electronically as the reading can drift over time. Location can also have an adverse effect on humidity readings – installing above dirt as opposed to over grass, for example. Industrial systems often recalibrate humidity sensors on a yearly basis – typically using an accurate source such as a sling psychrometer.

Please remember that calibration is optional and is only recommended if you have a known calibrated-source to compare your readings against. Calibration can correct your readings against electronic variation and degradation of moving parts, which may happen over time. Do not compare the readings obtained by your ClimeMET CM2026 too closely to those found on the internet or radio – the purpose of your weather station is to measure the conditions of your own surroundings, which will vary significantly from location to location.

Maintenance & Troubleshooting

The ClimeMET CM2026 has been designed with dependability in mind and will require minimal attention once set up. After the system has been installed, you should find that the only maintenance required will be an occasional check and clean of the sensors in order to ensure they provide you with years of service. This weather station uses 2 x AA batteries to power the outdoor sensor-suite - it will depend on the quality of the batteries used, but we'd normally expect these to last for around 12 months. At the same time you access the station to change the batteries, you may want to clean the sensors and carry out some brief checks.

If it appears that any problems are occurring with your weather station, please see the below guide for further information:

Display Console:

Outdoor data is not displaying and dashes are shown instead

Ensure that the outdoor sensor suite is within range of the display console – the maximum range is 100 metres, or just over 300 feet. Please note that obstacles such as trees/walls/etc will have an impact on this communication range, so try to make sure the line of sight is as clear as possible.

Check that the batteries inside the sensor suite are not depleted – insert new batteries if you cannot be sure.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Indoor Temperature and Humidity:

Temperature readings are too high/low

If the indoor temperature readings appear to be high, make sure that the display console has not been placed in a location where it will be in direct sunlight during the day. This can cause the plastic casing to heat up which takes some time to cool down again, which may ultimately result in false readings. If the indoor temperature readings seem too low, check that the display console has not been mounted against an interior wall that cools down significantly throughout the day, as this could be affecting the readings measured. It's also worth checking that the console is not in the path of any air-conditioning units or located near an air vent. Similarly, make sure the outdoor sensor suite is not placed too close to surfaces that will radiate heat or affect nearby temperatures in a similar manner.

Dew Point:

Dew Point figure appears to be incorrect

Dew point measurements depend upon the outdoor temperature and humidity figures, so it's vital to make sure that these readings are correct in order to calculate the dew point reading. Each of these measurements can be calibrated if required.

Wind:

Wind readings appear to be lower than expected

Wind readings can be significantly affected by the location of the system. Make sure that there is nothing in the surrounding area that could be shielding the CM2026 from the effects of the wind as this will reduce the strength of the readings received. Please remember that mounting the station a few feet higher or lower can alter the readings considerably.

Wind Chill:

Wind chill figure appears to be incorrect

Wind chill readings are reliant upon the wind speed and outdoor temperature measurements. If your wind chill readings appear to be inaccurate, please check these readings and calibrate them slightly if necessary in order to improve the wind chill calculation.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Cleaning your Wind Sensors:

It's also a good idea to keep your wind sensors clean in order to ensure they can move freely enough to produce accurate readings. Use the supplied Allen key to remove the wind vane and cups and then use a cloth to clean the metal shaft to remove any built-up dirt or grit. Over time this can cause the wind sensors to 'stick' slightly, so keeping these clean and firmly tightened will ensure the sensors will operate as they should.

The wind sensor can also be fully unscrewed from the sensor suite for easier cleaning.

ClimeMET CM2026 - Cleaning your Wind Sensors: - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a hand using a tool to adjust or install a mechanical component, with no visible text or symbols.

Rainfall:

Low/No Rainfall readings are being received

The rainfall readings are measured by a tipping mechanism within the rain collector – for these readings to be correct it is vital that this part is able to move freely. As the rain gauge requires a small opening for rainfall to fall through and activate the mechanism, it's also possible that over time some form of debris may block this opening, or alternatively get stuck around the internal mechanism preventing it from moving fully. If your rainfall readings remain at zero, or appear to be significantly lower than expected, it's worth clearing around the rain gauge and cleaning the internal tipping-mechanism to ensure that nothing is preventing it from operating as it should.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Cleaning your Rain Collector:

Over time, you may find that blockages are created in your rain gauge due to leaves, insects or something else. Though these items may be small, they can prevent the tipping-mechanism from moving freely and therefore impact upon your rainfall readings if they are left to build up.

To access the mechanism, firstly locate the three holes on the underside of the rain collector as shown. Inside each of these holes is a screw which must be removed using a Philips screwdriver.

Once these screws have been removed, you can carefully lift the rain collector cover in order to access the tipping-mechanism.

Any blockages should be obvious but it's a good idea to carefully clean around the mechanism itself, as well as making sure the slits found at the base are clear in order to allow the water to empty out. Once all appears to be correct, simply fit the cover back into place and insert the screws to securely re-attach the rain gauge.
