 41 ■ Setting up Requirements for the set-up location CAUTION ► When selecting the installation location, ensure that the appliances are not sub- jected to direct sunlight, vibration, dust, heat, cold and moisture. ► Do not set the appliance up in the vicinity of heat sources such as radiators. ► Fit the outdoor sensor at a maximum distance of 30 m from the temperature station. Ensure that there are no disruptive obstacles between the outdoor sensor and the temperature station. Otherwise, transmission can be disrupted. ♦ Both the temperature station and the outdoor sensor can be suspended from a screw using the hangers 7 and t. ♦ Alternatively, you can fold out the stand w of the temperature station to set it up on an even, horizontal surface. Operating the outdoor sensor ♦ Open the battery compartmention the rear of the appliance by pushing the bat- tery compartment coveroin the direction of the arrow. ♦ Insert two type AA batteries into the appli- ance’s battery compartmenti as shown.AFT 77 A1 ■ 42 

♦ Close the battery compartment

again. The control LED

on the front of the outdoor sensor lights up briefly. Afterwards, the control LEDr lights up once every minute to signal that transmis- sion is in progress. Operating the temperature station ♦ Open the battery compartmentqon the rear of the appliance by removing the battery compartment covere. ♦ Insert two type AA batteries into the appli- ance’s battery compartmentq as shown. ♦ Close the battery compartmentq again. Once the power supply has been established, the display will light up and go through a brief check of the display elements. The temperature station will now attempt to connect to the outdoor sensor. The reception symbol flashes on the outdoor temperature panel 4. NOTE If no outdoor temperature is displayed within around 3minutes, the temperature station will stop the reception search. The reception symbol goes out and is displayed on the outdoor temperature panel4.AFT 77 A1

 43 ■ NOTE It is possible that no signal can be received due to the surrounding buildings or because the distance is too great. If you are unable to establish an automatic connection to the outdoor sensor, you can do this manually: ♦ Press and hold the button0 until the reception signal flashes on the outdoor temperature panel4. The temperature station automatically starts to receive the DCF signal after 3minutes, irre- spective of whether the outdoor sensor recep- tion search has been successful or not. The reception symbol flashes on the time panel1. If the DCF signal is being received correctly, the current central European Time (CET) is displayed on the time panel1 and the date and weekday are displayed on the date panel3. In addition, the reception symbol is permanently displayed on the time panel1. If the appliance is unable to synchronise with the DCF signal, you can also set the time manually (see section Basic settings) or you can attempt the reception again. ♦ Press and hold the button9 for about 3 seconds to attempt the reception search again. The reception symbol flashes on the time panel1.AFT 77 A1 ■ 44 

The DCF signal The DCF signal (time signal transmitter) consists of time impulses which are transmitted by the most accurate clock in the world – near Frank- furt am Main, Germany. Under ideal conditions, the radio temperature station can receive the signals up to a distance of around 2000 km from Frankfurt am Main. Reception of these DCF signals normally takes between 3 and 5 minutes. If reception of the DCF signal fails, the temperature station will stop trying to establish reception after around 7 minutes. Reception can be considerably restricted by obstacles (e.g. concrete walls) or interference sources (e.g. other electronic appliances). If necessary, you should change the location of the temperature station (e.g. put it by a window) if reception problems continue. Displays in basic mode Once the temperature station has received the outdoor sensor signal and the DCF signal, it is in basic mode. In basic mode, the temperature station shows the following information on its display:AFT 77 A1

 45 ■ The time panel1 The time is shown in 24-hour format by default. If you select the 12-hour format in the basic settings, the abbreviation (Latin: “post meridiem” = afternoon) is shown in front of the time between 12 noon and 11.59 at night. The abbreviation (Latin: “ante meridiem” = morning) is shown in front of the time between 12 midnight and 11.59 in the morning. During the summer period, (daylight saving time) is displayed. This display is only shown if the DCF signal is being received. The date panel3 The current date appears under the display and the current month under the display . The abbreviation for the current weekday is shown to the right of the display . The language for this abbrevi- ation is preset to German but can be changed if required. Please refer to the section Basic settings for details.AFT 77 A1 ■ 46 

The indoor temperature panel2 The indoor temperature measured by the temperature station is displayed to one decimal place. The tempera- ture unit (degrees Celsius) is shown top right. The temperature unit can also be changed to (degrees Fahrenheit). If the temperature drops below the measuring range of 0°C to 50°C (or 32°F to 122°F) is shown; is shown if the temperature rises above this range. The temperature trend is shown to the left of the temperature display. The following displays are possible: = the temperature is rising. = the temperature is constant. = the temperature is dropping. If the battery symbol appears to the left of the temperature display, you should replace the batteries of the temperature station as soon as possible (see section Operating the temperature station).AFT 77 A1

 47 ■ The outdoor temperature panel4 The outdoor temperature is displayed to one decimal place. The temperature unit (degrees Celsius) is shown top right. The temperature unit can also be changed to (degrees Fahr- enheit). If the temperature drops below the measuring range of -20°C to 60°C (or -4°F to 140°F) is shown; is shown if the temperature rises above this range. The temperature trend is shown to the left of the temperature display. The following displays are possible: = the temperature is rising. = the temperature is constant. = the temperature is dropping. If the battery symbol appears to the left of the temperature display, you should replace the batteries of the outdoor sensor as soon as possible (see section Operating the outdoor sensor).AFT 77 A1 ■ 48

 55 ■ NOTE ► Only the values from outdoor sensors which are connected to the temperature station will be displayed. ► If you are using several outdoor sensors you should select a different radio chan- nel for each outdoor sensor. Troubleshooting Connection cannot be made to the outdoor sensor. ■ Disruptive obstacles or other interference sources such as concrete walls or other radio transmission appliances are located between the temperature station and the outdoor sensor. Change the installation location and try again. ■ Distance between weather station and outdoor sensor is too great. Decrease the distance. “Visual con- tact” between the outdoor sensor and the temperature station often improves the transmission. ■ The batteries in the temperature station or the outdoor sensor are dead. Replace the batteries.AFT 77 A1 ■ 56 

Synchronisation with DCF signal not possible ■ Disruptive obstacles or other interference sources such as concrete walls or other ra- dio transmission appliances are interfering with DCF signal reception. Change the installation location (e.g. near a window) and try again. ■ The batteries of the temperature station are dead. Replace the batteries. Cleaning CAUTION ► To avoid irreparable damage to the device, ensure that no moisture gets into it during cleaning. ► Do not use caustic, abrasive or solvent- based cleaning materials.
