Selecting the unit for rainfall
measurement
The unit for the rainfall quantity is displayed in the field "RAIN"
where you can chose between l/m
Select the desired unit using the keys "+" and "-".
Press the "NEXT" key. After that, you can allocate the progression
display.

Allocating the progress display

You can allocate the following display types to the graphic progres-
sion display:
• atmospheric pressure
• interior temperature
• exterior temperature
If the progress display is allocated to one of the two temperature
displays, the symbol "

Overlay/identification in the display field:
P = atmospheric pressure
O = outdoor temperature
I = indoor temperature
Select the desired allocation using the keys "+" and "-".
Press the key "NEXT", after that, the unit for the wind velocity mea-
surement can be entered.
Selecting the unit for wind velocity
The following units can be set:

The display will take place in the field "WIND".
Select the unit with which you wish to display the wind velocity
using the keys "+" and "-".
Terminating configuration mode
Press "EXIT" to complete input. This can take place at any desired
position, e.g. after setting the time etc.

If the "NEXT" key is pressed, the year will appear again;
the input order can commence from the beginning again.
You could now, for example, monitor or alter the entries.
11. Troubleshooting
Observe the safety instructions contained in these operating instructions
Problem Remedy
No reception • The distance between the base station and outdoor sensors is too great.
Alter the position of the outdoor sensors.
• Objects or shielding materials are obstructing the radio reception.
Alter the position of the outdoor sensors and the base station.
• The batteries of the outdoor sensors are too weak or flat.
Insert new batteries into the sensors as an attempt.
• Another transmitter on the same or neighbouring frequencies is disturbing the
radio signal of the outdoor sensors. This can be, for example, radio headphones,
radio loudspeakers or similar devices.
Such products are not usually operated constantly; the radio reception can, for
example, be perfect the next day; this makes the search for the cause more diffi-
cult
If possible, set another frequency on the instruments which can eliminate the
reception problems of the weather station.
Disturbance of • The outdoor sensors transmit their data to the base station approx. every 3
other instruments minutes for a period of 0.1 (100ms) seconds. In this short period, disturbances in
through the outdoor other devices are also possible.
sensors For example, a very short disturbance signal can be audible from a radio head-
phone every 3 minutes.
Problems with the • When inserting the batteries into the outdoor sensors and the base station
synchronisation (observe this order exactly!), these devices are in synchronisation mode. A data
telegram is transmitted here every 4 seconds which accelerates the recognition
and registration of the outdoor sensors at the base station.
To enforce new synchronisation, remove the batteries from the base station and
outdoor sensors. After that, wait at least 60 seconds before you insert the batter-
ies into the outdoor sensors again and, lastly, into the base station (observe this
order without fail – first of all insert the batteries into all existing outdoor sensors,
only then into the base station.
In doing so, however, all values/data which the base station has stored (e.g. min-
imum values, maximum values and date/time etc.), are lost.
• Before you position the outdoor sensors, for example in your garden, carry out a
function test as described at the beginning of section 7.
