The WS888 Multifunction Weather Station is a top-quality, highly comfortable universal weather measuring system
that can receive, process and display the data from up to eight remote wireless temperature and air humidity sensors
and one combination sensor over a range of up to 300 m (open-air range).
The weather station’s outdoor combination sensor collects the following weather data:
Temperature, air humidity, wind direction, wind speed, start of rainfall, amount of rain and sunshine duration.
The sensors for indoor temperature, indoor air humidity and air pressure are already integrated into the weather
station so that no external sensor is required.
The weather station has an excellent operating concept. It does not feature any of the usual control elements; rather
it is operated via a large touch screen and straightforward menus. The weather sensors are also quite easy to register.
The weather data of the combination sensor can be retrieved in real-time: just touch the corresponding display field
to start the data transfer (bidirectional wireless technology). The displayed data are thus always up to date.
In “Live Mode” the combination sensor can also be set to send its measured data in 2-second intervals for 20 seconds.
This allows you to track e.g. the wind direction and the wind speed in real-time for a period of 20 seconds.
The display can be lit permanently or at programmed times so that you can take your readings under nearly any
lighting conditions. In addition, the glass base and the transparent design frame of the station are lit.
The integrated DCF radio clock ensures the accurate time display and exact data acquisition.
The weather station has a large internal memory with capacity for 3000 data records in total making the weather
station suitable for long-time monitoring of the weather. The data records can be sent to your computer via USB port
where you can analyse and visualise the data using the “WeatherPro Edition 2007” analysis software that comes with
the weather station.
Please note!
The manual of the “WeatherPro Edition 2007” evaluation software is not a part of the weather station’s
manual. A separate manual is delivered with the software.
Please read all manuals carefully and completely before first starting the system to avoid malfunctions and
maloperations. Keep the manual for future reference.
You should pay special attention to the assembly and calibration instructions for the measuring sensors.
Any use other than the one described above damages the product. Moreover, it involves dangers such as e.g. short-
circuit, fire, electric shock, etc.
Please note all safety instructions and installation notes in this manual!
