C) Rain Sensor; D) Weather Station - Conrad TE831X Bedienungsanleitung

c) Rain sensor

• Remove the top receptacle (36) by unlocking the two rotary knobs on the side (33) first. Turn those approx. 45°
counter-clockwise to the left. Do not exert any force!
Afterwards the receptacle (36) can be lifted off towards the top. Remember the right orientation.
• The battery compartment is located on the side with the smaller vertical housing part (37, hemispheric battery
shape on the back). The battery compartment cover is secured with 7 small screws. Please unscrew these.
• Insert two batteries of type AA/mignon with correct polarity into the battery compartment (37, observe positive/+
and negative/-).
• Replace the cover of the battery compartment again and screw it down firmly.
• If you look into the bottom part, you will see a small integrated spirit level (32) there. This serves for correct horizontal
installation.
• Insert the receptacle into the bottom part. Observe the correct orientation. Only one is possible!
• Lock the two rotary knobs on the side (33) by turning them once again clockwise to the right by 45°. Do not exert
any force!
• The rain sensor should be directly exposed to precipitation. Please remember this when selecting the installation
site (e.g. on a carport or similar).
Protect it from leaves and similar, as these may clog the drainage opening in the receptacle. Check the drainage
opening from time to time for this reason.
You can also attach the rain sensor using the four feet (35).

d) Weather station


Commission all sensors first if you have not already done so.
• Open the battery compartment cover (10) on the back of the weather station and insert two AA batteries (mignon)
paying attention to the correct polarity (observe plus/+ and minus/-).

The enclosed power pack unit is required to use the automatic background illumination at darkness.
Connect the round low-voltage plug to the corresponding socket (15) of the weather station and plug
the power pack unit into a mains outlet (230V~/50Hz).
When using the power pack unit, the batteries serve as backup in case of a power failure.
• After inserting the batteries, the display briefly shows all display segments. Afterwards, the display for the air
pressure units blinks.
• Replace the cover of the battery compartment.
• Set the units for measuring the air pressure (mmHg, hPa/mBar or InHg) with the buttons " " (6) or " " (7) and
briefly press the button "SET" (5) to save. In general, you should select "hPa/mBar".
• Afterwards, the display for the altitude units blinks ("meters" or "feet"). Select the desired unit with the buttons " "
or " " and briefly press the button "SET" to save.
• The value for the altitude blinks now. Set the approximate altitude for your region with the buttons " " or " " here.
For a quick setting, keep the corresponding button depressed for a longer period of time.
Save the value; briefly press the button "SET".
• Now the weather station measures the air pressure and indicates this on the display (e.g. "1016.4 hPa/mBar").
