12. Location and mounting
When placed outdoors, choose a shady and dry place for the transmit-
ter. Direct sunlight may trigger incorrect measurement and continuous
humidity damages the electronic components needlessly.
Place the base station in any room of the house.
Avoid being close to possible sources of interference that may affect
radio reception. It is recommended to keep a distance of at least 2
metres to possibly interfering sources (TV, computer, microwave, wire-
less phones, baby monitors) and large metal objects (e.g. refrigerator).
Within solid walls, especially ones with metal parts, the transmission
range can be reduced considerably. In extreme cases, please place the
unit close to a window to improve reception.
Check whether the transmission from the transmitter to the base sta-
tion is possible and whether the DCF radio clock signal can be received.
If necessary, choose, another position for the outdoor transmitter
and/or receiver.
If the transmission is successful, you can place or wall mount the base
station and the outdoor transmitter with the suspension device.
To wall-mount the transmitter, screw the holder to the wall and click the
outdoor transmitter into the holder.
Do not use the base station in the vicinity of radiators, other sources of
heat or in direct sunlight.

13. Battery replacement
As soon as the battery symbol will appear on the outdoor values dis-
play of the base station or on the display of the outdoor transmitter,
change the batteries of the outdoor transmitter.
Change the batteries of the base station, when the battery symbol
appears on the indoor values display. The instrument also works with-
out batteries. Than the battery symbol for the base station is perma-
nently shown on the display.
Please note:
When the batteries are changed, the contact between the outdoor trans-
mitter and the base station must be restored – so always restart both
devices or start a manual transmitter search.
14. Additional outdoor transmitters (optional)
When having more than one external transmitter, select a different
channel for each one with the 1/2/3 switch inside the transmitter's bat-
tery compartment. Insert two new AA 1.5 V batteries, polarity as illu-
strated. Start the base station operation or the manual search for the
outdoor transmitter:
Choose the respective channel by pressing the CHANNEL button.
Press and hold the CHANNEL button for three seconds. The last re-
gistered transmitter (channel) will be cancelled and the transmitter
search begins.
Press the TX button in the corresponding transmitter's battery com-
partment. The transmission of the outdoor data will take place imme-
diately.
The outdoor values and the channel number will be shown on the base
station display. If you have installed more than one outdoor transmitter,
press the CHANNEL button on the base station to change between the
channels 1 to 3.
You can also choose an alternating channel display. Press the CHANNEL
button. After the last registered channel (1 to 3) a circle symbol will
appear. To deactivate the function press the CHANNEL button again.
After a successful installation close the outdoor transmitter's battery
compartment carefully.
