Getting Started

1. Connect the adapter to the station, then insert batteries first into the weather station (3× 1.5 V AAA), then into the wireless sensor (2× 1.5 V AAA). The battery compartment of the sensor is protected by screws; use a suitable screwdriver.

2. When inserting the batteries make sure the polarity is correct to avoid damaging the weather station or sensor. Only use alkaline batteries of the same type; do not use rechargeable batteries.

3. Place the two units next to each other. The weather station will automatically detect the sensor signal within 3 minutes. If signal from the sensor is not detected, long-press the button on the weather station to repeat the search.

4. We recommend placing the sensor on the north side of the house. The range of the sensor may decrease substantially in areas with large number of obstacles.

5. The sensor is resistant to dripping water; however, it should not be exposed to sustained rain.

6. Do not place the sensor onto metal objects as this will reduce its transmission range.

7. If the low battery icon is displayed, replace batteries in the sensor or weather station.

Switching Channel and Connecting Additional Sensors

1. Choose the desired channel 1, 2, or 3 for the sensor by repeatedly pressing the button. Then, long-press the button; the icon will start flashing.

2. Unscrew the cover from the battery compartment on the rear of the sensor and set the sensor switch to the desired sensor channel number (1, 2, 3), then insert batteries (2× 1.5 V AAA). Data from the sensor will be loaded within 3 minutes.

3. If sensor signal is not found, remove the batteries and proceed again in accordance with steps 1 and 2 or press the TX button.

Displaying Data from Multiple Sensors, Automatic Cycling through Values from Connected Sensors

Press the button repeatedly to display data from all connected sensors on the weather station, one by one.

You can also activate cycling through data from all connected sensors:

1. turning on cycling

Repeatedly press the Ⓞ button until the display shows the 📊 icon.

Data from all 3 sensors will be shown automatically and repeatedly one after another.

2. turning off cycling

Repeatedly press the Ⓞ button until the 📊 icon disappears.

Radio Controlled Clock (DCF77)

The wireless sensor will automatically start searching for DCF77 (hereinafter referred to as DCF) signal for 5 minutes after pairing with the weather station; the Timpn is flashing. (The DCF sensor is located in the sensor).

Signal detected – the icon stops flashing and displays the current time with the DCF icon. Signal not detected – DCF icon will not be displayed. DCF signal will be synchronised daily between 2:00 and 3:00 am.

Note: If the weather station detects DCF signal but the current time on the display is incorrect (e.g. shifted ±1 hour), you must always set the correct time zone for the country where you are using the station, see Manual Settings.

In standard conditions (at safe distance from sources of interference, such as TV sets or computer monitors), the reception of time signal takes several minutes. If the weather station does not detect the signal, follow these steps:

1. Move the weather station to another location and try to detect DCF signal again.
2. Check the distance of the clock from the sources of interference (computer monitors or television sets). It should be at least 1.5 to 2 m during the reception of signal.
3. When receiving DCF signal, do not place the weather station near metal doors, window frames and other metal structures or objects (washing machines, dryers, refrigerators, etc.).
4. In reinforced concrete structures (cellars, high-rise buildings, etc.), DCF signal reception is weaker, depending on the conditions. In extreme cases, place the weather station close to a window toward the transmitter.

Reception of the DCF 77 radio signal is affected by the following factors:

• thick walls and insulation, basements and cellars,
• inadequate local geographical conditions (these are difficult to assess in advance),
• atmospheric disturbances, thunderstorms, electrical appliances with no interference elimination, television sets and computers, located near the DCF receiver.
