The rain sensor measures the rainfall and sends the data to thermo-hygro sensor, which in turn transmits the
data to the base station. Operating power is taken from the thermo-hygro sensor by a cable connection
3. Set up Guide
3.1 Battery install
Note: To avoid operating problems, please take note of battery polarity before/when inserting any
Alkaline Batteries. Use good quality Alkaline Batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries. Since the
radio controlled time receiver is built inside the sensor, please do not put the sensor close to area
with mass metal or obvious shielding objects around.
1) Pull away the shower proof casing of the thermo-hygro sensor to reveal the two sockets (for the wind
sensor and rain sensor)
2) Connect the attached cables of wind and rain sensors to the corresponding sockets of the thermo-hygro
sensor by clicking them into place. Make sure that rain and wind sockets not swapped when plugging the
phone jacket.
3) Open the base station’s battery cover located at the back of the unit and insert 3 x AA, 1.5V Alkaline
batteries into the battery compartment and close the battery cover
4) Open the battery cover of the thermo-hygro sensor located below the two sockets and insert 2 x AA, 1.5V
Alkaline batteries and close the cover
Every time the thermo-hygro sensor is powered up (for example after a change of batteries), the LED
indicator will light up for 4 seconds (if no LED light up or is lighted permanently, make sure the battery is
inserted the correct way or a proper reset is happened). After the thermo-hygro sensor is powered up, the
sensor will transmit weather data for 24s, and then the sensor will start radio controlled time reception. During
the RCC time reception period (maximum 5 minutes), no weather data will be transmitted. The LED indicator
will be blinking 5 times once RCC signal was synchronized and the LED indicator will not light during any
future regular RCC reception routines. Regular RF link will be established once RCC reception routine is
finished.
When the base station is powered up, a short beep will sound and all LCD segments will light up for about 3
seconds before it enters into learning mode to learn the sensors security code.
Note: DO NOT PRESS ANY KEY during the first 10 minutes learning period or before radio controlled time is
displayed on the receiver. After both outdoor weather data and radio controlled time are displayed you can
place your remote sensor outdoors and set your time (if no RCC reception is possible). If there is no
temperature reading in the indoor station, make sure the units are within range of each other or repeat the
battery installation procedure. If a key is pressed before the weather station receives the temperature signal,
you will need to follow the battery installation procedure again. Please wait minimum 10seconds before
