Frequently Asked Questions - WS 6462 TECHNOLINE

How to set the time manually?

Press and hold the ⚙ button for 2 seconds. Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to set successively: temperature unit, pressure unit, 12/24h format, DCF activation, time zone, hour, minutes, date and language. Press ⚙ to confirm each step.

How to connect the outdoor sensor?

Insert 2 AA batteries into the sensor. The station automatically searches for the signal for about 3 minutes (flashing RF symbol). If connection fails, press and hold the ▼ button on the station for 3 seconds to force reception.

What does the flashing antenna symbol mean?

The flashing antenna symbol indicates that the station is searching for the DCF time signal. If it is steady, the signal is received correctly. If it disappears, synchronization failed; the station will automatically retry at the next full hour.

How to turn the alarm on or off?

Press the (bell) button to enter alarm mode. Press again to turn on (ON) or off (OFF). The bell symbol is displayed when the alarm is active.

How to change the outdoor sensor channel?

On the sensor, set the CHANNEL switch to 1, 2 or 3. On the station, press the ▼ button to select the corresponding channel. For manual reception, press and hold ▼ for 3 seconds.

Why does the outdoor temperature display '-' '-'?

This means the station is not receiving the signal from the outdoor sensor. Check the sensor batteries, distance (max 60 m) and interference. Press and hold the ▼ button for 3 seconds to restart the search.

How to reset the minimum and maximum values?

Press the MEM button to display the max or min values. Press and hold MEM for about 2 seconds to clear all records and replace them with current values.

How to set the outdoor temperature alert?

Press and hold the (alert) button for 2 seconds. The high limit symbol flashes: set with ▲/▼ and confirm with ⚙. Then set the low limit. Press to turn the alert on/off.

What to do if the time does not synchronize automatically?

Make sure DCF reception is enabled (ON in settings). Place the station near a window, away from interference sources. You can start a manual search by pressing and holding ▲ for 2 seconds. If the problem persists, disable DCF and set the time manually.

How to replace the outdoor sensor batteries?

Open the battery compartment of the sensor. Remove the old batteries and insert 2 new AA batteries, observing polarity. Close the cover. The station should reconnect automatically within a few minutes.

Initial operation:

• Connect the station with the household socket by using the adapter. Only use the power supply unit included in the scope of delivery.
• When the station is powered, all icons on the LCD display will light up for 3 seconds, and you will hear a beep tone.
• The weather station will now start to make a connection to the outdoor remote sensor. This operation takes about 3 minutes and is displayed by a flashing reception RF antenna symbol in the “OUTDOOR” display area on the receiver.
• Remove the outdoor sensor battery compartment cover and insert 2 x AA batteries observing polarity [“+” and “−” marks]. Then close the battery compartment.
• After station has created a connection to the outdoor remote sensor, it will then enter the radio control time reception mode.

Optional: batteries for back-up

Environmental reception effects

The station obtains the accurate time with wireless technology. Same as all wireless devices, the reception is maybe affected by the following circumstances:

• long transmitting distance
  • nearby mountains and valleys
• near freeway, railway, airports, high voltage cable etc.
• near construction site
• among tall buildings
  • inside concrete buildings
  • inside moving vehicles

- near electrical appliances (computers, TV's, etc) and metallic structures

Place the station at a location with optimal signal, i.e. close to a window and away from metal surfaces or electrical appliances.

Precautions

• This main unit is intended to be used only indoors. The outdoor sensor is intended to be used outdoors.
• Do not subject the unit to excessive force or shock.
• Do not expose the unit to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, dust or humidity.
• Do not immerse in water.
• Avoid contact with any corrosive materials.
• Do not dispose this unit in a fire as it may explode.
• Do not open the inner back case or tamper with any components of this unit.

Batteries safety warnings

• Use only alkaline batteries, not rechargeable batteries.
  • Install batteries correctly by matching the polarities (+/-).
  • Always replace a complete set of batteries.
• Never mix used and new batteries.
• Remove exhausted batteries immediately.
• Remove batteries when not in use.

• Do not recharge and do not dispose of batteries in fire as the batteries may explode.
