15. Troubleshooting

Problem
The basis station will not adjust
to the DCF data or cannot find
the outdoor sensor.
Measured values deviate from
other devices
The rain sensor shows wrong
data
The weather forecast is not
right.
The wind direction is wrong

Remedy
• The DCF receiver is integrated into the temperature/humidity sensor. The time
and date from the DCF signal are transmitted to the basis station from the
outdoor sensor by radio signal.
If the outdoor sensor is too far away or the rechargeable batteries in the out-
door sensor are weak or flat, the basis station will no longer display the proper
time after the DCF signal either.
• Remove the batteries from the basis station and the rechargeable batteries
from the outdoor sensor. Cover the solar module. Wait for a few seconds. First
insert the batteries into the basis station.
When the basis station shows the measured data for indoor temperature/in-
door humidity after a few seconds, it will start the scan for the outdoor sensor.
Now insert the rechargeable batteries in the outdoor sensor (remove the cover
from the solar module again).
The LED (23) must light up for 6 seconds. If this is not the case, the recharge-
able batteries are discharged and must be charged for at least one day at full
sunlight in the outdoor sensor first.
Wait for 10 minutes. Do not push any button at the basis station. The sensor
scan would be interrupted at once.
• Set the time and date of the basis station manually if reception is bad. Switch
off DCF reception first.
• Start registration ("REREGISTER TRANSMITTER"), see chapter 10. c). Then
briefly push the "RESET" (29) button at the bottom of the solar module.
• You can set an offset to be added to or subtracted from the displayed values
("CALIBRATION SETTING"), see chapter 10. c).
• Check if any leaves or anything else has gotten into the funnel of the rain
sensor; remove them.
• The weather forecast is calculated based on the observations of the baromet-
ric pressure progress. Only an accuracy of about 70% can be reached here.
• Check that the wind direction sensor is aligned north (see label "N" on the
wind direction sensor). A storm may have turned the outdoor sensor as well.
