C) Rain Sensor; D) Weather Station - Conrad TE 857 Bedienungsanleitung

c) Rain Sensor

• Remove the upper collection container (45) by first unlocking the two lateral turn knobs (42). They must be turned
to the left by approx. 45° (counter-clockwise): Do not exert any force!
Afterwards the connection container (45) can be pulled out towards the top. Remember the right positioning.
• The battery compartment is on the side with the smaller vertical casing part (46, half-round battery form on the
back). The battery case lid is secured by 7 small screws; remove them.
• Insert two type AA/mignon batteries with correct polarity into the battery compartment (46) (observe positive/+ and
negative/-).
• Attach the battery casing lid properly and screw it on.
• When looking into the lower part, you will see a small integrated water level (41) that is later used for proper level
installation.
• Insert the collection container into the lower part. Ensure correct alignment. Only one is possible!
• Lock the two lateral turn knobs (42), by turning them to the right by 45° (clockwise). Do not exert any force!
• The rain sensor should be installed in a place where it is directly exposed to rain, e.g. on a car port.
Protect it from leaves and other things that may clog the runoff opening of the collection container. Therefore, the
runoff must be inspected regularly.
The four bases (44) can be used to attach the rain sensor.

d) Weather Station


First put all sensors into operation if this has not happened yet.
• Open the battery compartment cover (13) on the back of the weather station and insert four AA/mignon batteries
paying attention to the correct polarity (observe plus/+ and minus/-).

Connect the low voltage plug to the corresponding connector (11) of the weather station, and plug in
the mains adapter (230V~/50Hz).
When using the mains adapter, the batteries are for support in case of a power outage.
• All display segments appear briefly in the display after the batteries are inserted. Then the display for barometric
pressure measurement flash.
• Replace the lid of the battery compartment.
• Set the barometric pressure measurement units (mmHg, hPa/mBar or InHg) with the "–" (6) or "+" (7) buttons and
then briefly press "SET" (2) for saving. Usually, you should select "hPa/mBar".
• Then the display for the altitude units flashes ("meter" or "feet"). Select the desired unit with the "–" or "+" button
and then briefly press "SET" (2) for saving.
• Now the altitude value flashes. Set the approximate altitude of your position with the "–" (6) and "+" (7) buttons.
This is required for correct barometric pressure display. If you do not know the value at the moment, set any value
(e.g. 100m) and correct it later.
For a quick adjustment, hold the corresponding button for a longer period of time.
Save the setting by briefly pressing the "SET" button (2).
