Operation Manual
Setting up using the AC adaptor:
1) Power up all the sensors as described in setting up using
batteries above
2) Using the AC adaptor (included), plug it into the mains
outlet and power up the base station by inserting the
adaptor jack into the 6.0V DC socket located on the side
of the base station
Every time the thermo-hygro sensor is powered up (for exam-
ple after a change of batteries), a random security code is
transmitted and this code must be synchronized with the base
station to receive weather data.
When the base station is powered up, a short beep will sound
and all LCD segments will light up for about 5 seconds before
it enters into a 15 minute learning mode to learn the sensors
security code. After the learning mode (or by pressing the
MIN/MAX key at anytime), the base station will start the
DCF77 radio controlled time reception.
Note for DCF77 Radio Controlled Time:
The time and date display is based on the signal provided by
a highly accurate Caesium atomic clock operated by the
Physikalisch Technische Bundesamt in Braunschweig (Ger-
many). This radio-controlled clock does not only provide for
the weather station’s time and date display but also functions
as the time source for all of this weather station’s memory and
history values using time and date information.
LED backlight:
When using the power adaptor or under battery operation, the
LED backlight will switch on for 15 seconds when any key is
pressed.
6. Operation using cable connection or wireless
433MHz
Cable Connection:
Using this method of operation will provide interference free
transfer of the weather data from the sensors to the base
station. The data sending interval from the sensors to the
base station will also be more frequent compared to using
