Frequently Asked Questions - 301519 Brandson

How do I set up the weather station?

Insert 2 AAA batteries into the main unit and 2 AAA batteries into the outdoor sensor. Place the sensor outdoors within 100 meters of the main unit. The main unit will automatically sync with the sensor and display readings.

Why is the outdoor sensor not connecting?

Ensure the batteries are fresh and correctly inserted. Check that the sensor is within range (up to 100 meters in open area). Avoid obstacles like thick walls or metal. Press the 'Reset' button on both units.

How accurate is the weather forecast?

The forecast is based on barometric pressure trends and is about 70-80% accurate. It predicts weather for the next 12-24 hours within a 30-50 km radius.

Can I use rechargeable batteries?

Yes, you can use rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. However, note that the low battery indicator may not work correctly with rechargeables due to lower voltage.

How do I change between Celsius and Fahrenheit?

Press the '°C/°F' button on the back of the main unit to toggle between temperature units.

What does the moon phase display show?

The moon phase display shows the current lunar phase (new moon, first quarter, full moon, last quarter) based on the date and time settings.

How do I set the time manually?

Press and hold the 'TIME' button for 3 seconds. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to adjust hour, minute, and date. The unit will exit setting mode after a few seconds of inactivity.

Why is the display showing inaccurate humidity?

Humidity sensors may be affected by rapid temperature changes or placement near drafts. Allow the unit to stabilize for 1-2 hours in a stationary location.

How often does the outdoor sensor transmit data?

The sensor transmits data every 30-60 seconds. The main unit updates the display accordingly.

What should I do if the device gets wet?

Remove the batteries immediately and dry the unit with a soft towel. Do not use heat sources. Leave it to dry completely for 24 hours before reinserting batteries. If issues persist, contact Brandson support.

5 Initial use

Take the device out of the package and remove all the packaging material.

Insert two 1.5 AA batteries into the sensor unit and three 1.5 V AA batteries into the main unit. Make sure the polarity of the contacts is correct. Then close the battery covers of the devices.

Note: Due to the low battery voltage of only 1.2V, the functioning of the weather station cannot be guaranteed with all types of rechargeable batteries. Malfunctions or shortened battery life is also possible. We recommend using 1.5V batteries.

6 Assembly

Before assembly, make sure the transmission between the sensor unit and the main unit is not disrupted or affected by interfering signals or large obstacles. Before assembly, make sure there is sufficient signal strength at the installation sites of the devices.

Position the sensor unit in such a way that it is protected against direct exposure to sunlight or rain.

If you wish to mount the sensor unit to a wall, make sure there are no electrical, water or gas lines, etc. present at the installation place.

Mount the sensor unit onto a wall using the recess on the rear side. Alternatively, you can place the sensor unit at a location that is protected against direct exposure to sunlight and rain. Subsequently, place the main unit with the stand on a flat surface.

The red LED on the front side of the sensor unit lights up as soon as the signal is successfully received.

If the weather station does not receive any signal within 7 minutes, place the main unit and sensor unit closer to each another and press the “CH +” and the “CH -” button in order to change the channels. Alternatively, press and hold the “CH” button until an arrow appears in the display. Now the weather station connects through all 3 channels.

7 Setting the time and date manually

To manually set the time, keep the "MODE" button on the rear side of the main unit pressed.

You can make the desired settings using the "Wave +" and "Wave -" buttons. Confirm your setting by pressing the "MODE" button.

Make the following settings one after the other:

1. 12/24 Hours
2. Temperature setting (°C or °F)
3. Time zone
4. Hours
5. Minutes
6. Year
7. Month
8. Day

Display Meaning
always on	"DST" signal synchronised
blinking	"DST" signal is active
off	"DST" signal is inactive

1. Country (GE = Germany, EN = England, FR = France, IT = Italy, SP = Spain)

Alternatively, the weather station will attempt to receive a "DST" signal to synchronise the time and date.

If no signal is received, press the "Wave +" and "Wave -" buttons simultaneously to start the search for a "DST" signal manually.

8 Sunrise and sunset display

Press the “CITY” button on the rear side of the weather station. This will bring you to Cities setting. Using “Wave +” and “Wave -” buttons you can select your desired city out of more than 100 different cities worldwide.

To add a town or place manually, hold down the "CITY" button until the display starts blinking. Now you can enter the abbreviation of the city using the "Wave +" and "Wave -" buttons. Confirm the entry by pressing the "CITY" button. If the abbreviation is set, you must subsequently set the time zone. Confirm the time zone by using the "CITY" button, too

After that, you must set the longitude and latitude of your desired city.

When you complete these settings, the sunrise and sunset time of the entered values will be displayed.

9 Moon phase

The main station has a "moon phase" function.

The current moon phase is shown automatically on the display of the weather station.

10 Alarm function

Press the "MODE" button to set the alarm time. As soon as the alarm time is displayed, press the "MODE" button until the alarm time starts to blink. First set the hour. You can set the desired alarm time using the "Wave +" and "Wave -" buttons. Subsequently, set the minutes. Also use the "Wave +" and "Wave -" buttons for this purpose. Press the "MODE" button. The alarm time is shown on the display. Now, press the "Wave +"-button to turn on the alarm.

Press the “MODE” button. The alarm time is shown on the display. Press the “Wave +” button in the alarm display to turn the alarm on or off. This is illustrated by a “bell” symbol.

Press the "LIGHT/SNZ" button on the rear side of the weather station to activate the snooze mode. The alarm will sound again after approx. 5 minutes.

11 Display backlight

Press the "LIGHT/SNZ" button on the rear side of the weather station to activate the backlight of the weather station display.

12 Barometric pressure

The barometric pressure is indicated in mb/hPa or in HG. Using the "HISTORY" button on the rear side, you can look back up to 12 hours to see the barometric pressure at a certain time.

13 Weather forecast

The provisional weather forecast can be found in the top left area of the screen. The weather forecast is shown in symbols (sunny, slightly overcast, overcast, rainy, snow). This symbol changes depending on the weather. The trend is shown with arrows. An explanation for the trend can be found in the chapter "4 Trend".

Note: The weather forecast is calculated by evaluating the barometric pressure fluctuations and may deviate from the actual weather.

14 Maximum and minimum daily values

Press the "Wave +" -button when the weather station is in standard mode to display the maximum and minimum daily values. A "MAX" or "MIN" symbol appears on the display of the outdoor and indoor temperature. If none of these symbols illuminate, the current temperature and humidity will be displayed. Keep the "Wave +" button pressed to reset the stored values.
