NOTICE
Avoid connection faults!
In order to avoid connection problems between the devices, the following points must be observed
during commissioning.
1. Place the base unit (receiver) and sensor (transmitter) as close together as possible.
2. Connect the power supply to the base unit and wait until the indoor temperature is displayed.
3. Establish power supply for the sensor.
4. Set up/operate the base unit and sensor within the effective transmission range.
5. Make sure that the base unit and the radio sensor are set to the same channel.
When changing the batteries, always remove the batteries from both the base unit and the sensor and
reinsert them in the correct order so that the radio link can be re-established. If one of the two devices
is operated via a mains power connection, the power connection must also be briefly disconnected for
this device when the batteries are changed. If, for example, only the batteries in the sensor are re-
placed, the signal may subsequently not be received at all or not be received correctly.
Note that the actual range depends on the respective construction materials used for the buildings as
well as the respective position of the base unit and the outdoor sensor. External influences (various ra-
dio transmitters and other sources of interference) can greatly reduce the possible range. In such
cases, we recommend finding other locations for both the base unit and the outdoor sensor. Some-
times moving the sensor by just a few centimeters is enough!

9 The first steps

Follow the bullet points in order, to ensure a successful setup.
1. Setting up power supply (base station)
2. As soon as the radio signal icons for the outdoor sensors start flashing, insert the batteries into the
sensors immediately, otherwise the station will eventually switch to DCF radio signal search. No
outdoor sensors can be connected during the DCF radio signal search. If new outdoor sensors are
to be connected, please start from point 1 again.
3. When the radio signal next to the time flashes, the DCF radio signal is being searched for. During
this search, the outdoor sensors cannot be connected. The DCF search process may take up to
15 minutes and then restarts every hour if the DCF connection is not successful until the connec-
tion is successful.
