Frequently Asked Questions - WS 9060 TECHNOLINE

How to set the time manually on the WS 9060 station?

Press and hold the T. SET button for more than 2 seconds to enter setting mode. Use ▲/WAVE or ▼/CH to change values (temperature unit, pressure, time, language, year, month, day, date format, time zone, hour and minutes). Press T. SET to confirm each step. The mode exits automatically after 30 seconds of inactivity.

How to activate and deactivate the alarm?

Use the ON/OFF switch on the main unit. Set it to ON to activate the alarm (alarm icon displayed). Set to OFF to deactivate. To set the alarm time, press and hold AL. SET for 2 seconds, then set the hour and minutes with ▲/WAVE and ▼/CH.

How to connect an outdoor wireless sensor?

Insert 2 AA batteries into the sensor observing polarities. Make sure the channel selector (CH1, CH2 or CH3) is set. The main unit automatically searches for the sensor for about 3 minutes after power on. If connection fails, press and hold ▼/CH for 2 seconds to restart the search. The RF antenna icon should remain lit on success.

What do the HH or LL displays on the screen mean?

HH (High High) indicates that the measured temperature or humidity exceeds the allowed display range. LL (Low Low) indicates a value below this range. Check specifications: indoor temperature: -9.9°C to +50°C; outdoor: -40°C to +60°C; humidity: 20% to 95%.

How to change the backlight color?

Press the COLOR: RAINBOW button to choose among 8 fixed colors (white, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple). If the power adapter is plugged in, press COLOR: LOOP to activate automatic color change (over 70 colors). Press and hold COLOR: LOOP to speed up the change.

How many outdoor sensors can I connect?

You can connect up to 3 wireless sensors on different channels (CH1, CH2, CH3). Use the channel selector on each sensor to assign a unique channel. The main unit displays data from the selected sensor or automatically scrolls every 5 seconds in scan mode.

How to clear the maximum and minimum temperature and humidity values?

Press the MEM button to display the max (once) and min (twice) values. To clear the records, press and hold MEM for 2 seconds. The display shows '--' for 2 seconds, then current values reappear.

The station does not receive the DCF time signal, what to do?

Make sure the station is placed near a window, away from interference sources (TVs, computers, metal structures). Press and hold ▲/WAVE for 2 seconds to start manual search. Reception is better at night. Avoid basements and reinforced concrete buildings. The backlight turns blue during search.

Can I use a different power adapter than the one provided?

No, only use the specified power adapter (5V DC, 1A) supplied with the device. Using another adapter may cause radio signal reception problems or damage the station.

How to charge a device via the USB port?

Connect your portable device's cable to the USB port on the back of the main unit (label B11). The output is 5V, 1A, allowing charging of smartphones, tablets or other compatible devices. Ensure the main unit is powered by the power adapter or batteries.

Initial Operation :

• Open the weather station battery compartment cover.
• Insert 2 x AA batteries observing polarity [ "+" and "-" marks]. These batteries are intended as back-up for adapter.
• Insert the power adaptor and connect to the power socket
  After power on, all icons on the LCD will briefly light up for 3 seconds, and you will hear a beep tone, and indoor temperature, air pressure and humidity will appear.
• The weather station will now start to search for the wireless remote sensor. This operation takes about 3 minutes and RF antenna symbol " " will flash.
• Open the outdoor remote sensor battery compartment and insert 2 x AA batteries (observing polarity "+" and "-marks").
  After receiver has received the remote sensor, it will then enter into the radio controlled time reception mode and the outdoor temperature and humidity data will be shown on the outdoor section of weather station.

Note:

After the main device powered on, RF will be switched on for 3 minutes. If the wireless remote sensor's signal is not received by the main device within 3 minutes, it will automatically enter the radio signal receiving.

Reception of the radio signal

• DCF: radio signals transmission tower is located in Frankfurt /Germany, radio frequency is 77.5 KHz, under ideal conditions, product can receive the radio signal to calibrate the time within a radius of 1500KM.
• When the product is receiving the radio signal, the radio mast icon " " will flash. The clock automatically starts the DCF signal search for about 7 minutes of any restart or changing of new fresh batteries.

After the DCF signal is received successfully, the radio mast icon " " will always show on the screen, while the product will automatically complete the time calibration.
At 1:00 /2:00 / 3:00 am, the clock automatically carries out the synchronization procedure with the DCF signal to correct any deviations to the exact time. If this synchronization attempt is unsuccessful (the radio controlled icon disappears from the display), the system will automatically attempt synchronization again at the next full one hour. This procedure is repeated automatically up to total 5 times.
- Manual DCF signal reception, you can press and hold down the “▲/WAVE” button for two seconds to manually receive. If no signals received within 7 minutes, then the DCF signal search stops (the radio controlled icon disappears) and starts again at the next full one hour.
- During RC reception, other button will have no operation function instead of "SNOOZE/LIGHT" button, press and hold down the "▲/WAVE" button for two seconds to stop radio signal searching and continue other setting.

Note:

• Display backlight color will change to blue while DCF signal reception is active.
