On the back of the radio weather station: 1. Insert button cells (2 x CR 2032 3 V) or connect the optional power adapter (see Page 13). Note the polarity shown. 2. Select the temperature unit with the °C/°F button. 3. Specify the unit for the air pressure display with the mb/hPa / inHg button. mb/hPa = millibar/hectopascal inHg = inches of mercury column 4. Push the Reset button with a pointed object. ✓ The radio weather station searches for radio sensors. The search is ended automatically after 5 minutes.
Replacing batteries Battery replacement indicator The weather station features two battery replacement indicators. The indicator in the weather forecast area indicates the battery level in the radio weather station. The battery indicator in the temperature/humidity area indicates the level of the batteries in the selected radio sensor. %RH COM If is shown on the radio sensor or on the weather station, new batteries must be inserted as shown starting on Page 4 for commissioning.
Selecting the installation site i Testing signal transmission Before final installation, ensure that the positioning of the radio sensor(s) and radio weather station enable proper signal transmission. Conditions for optimum operation: • For optimum readability, the radio weather station should be installed at eye level (approx. 1.7 m). • The radio sensor should be mounted firedamp outside. Direct sunlight, rain or snow can interfere with proper measurement by the outside sensor.
Installing the radio weather station The radio weather station can be installed with or without a cover frame. If installed on a flush-mounted box (when used with power adapter), the weather station must be installed with a cover frame. Cover frames Wall mounting attachment Mounting plate Box mounting attachment %RH Hr hPa mb Weather station Mode Set Memo Ch Installation with a cover frame is described in the following.
Box mounting 1. Connect power adapter to 230 V (see Page 13). 2. Place mounting plate and cover frame on the flush-mounted box. 3. Secure mounting plate to the support ring of the flush-mounted box with two screws. 4. Connect plug terminal and attach to the contact of the radio weather station. 5. Attach weather station to the mounting plate and snap it in. Hr %RH hPa mb Removing the radio weather station To open the radio weather station: 1.
Installing the radio sensor Find a suitable location for the radio sensor: Direct sunlight, rain or snow can negatively effect measurement. The radio sensor can be stood up or hung. Placing 1. Fold out stand on the back of the radio sensor and secure it there. 2. Stand up radio sensor in a suitable location. Hanging The radio sensor can be hung on a screw via the hanging eyelet on the back. 1. Screw the screw (not included) into the wall at the desired location. 2.
Operating the radio weather station with the power adapter Attention Installation and mounting of electrical devices may only be carried out by a qualified electrician. With the optional power adapter, the radio weather station can be operated with 230 V. The radio weather station must be installed on a flush-mounted box (we recommend a deep box) for this. The power adapter must be connected as follows: 1. Connect power adapter to 230 V. 2. Connect a suitable cable to the 9 V output of the power adapter.
Operating the radio weather station Front Weather forecast Animated weather forecast Battery level Power supply type (battery/power adapter) Temperature/Humidity Actual value, min./max.
Weather forecast The weather station creates a weather forecast for the next 12 to 24 hours for the area within a radius of 30 - 50 km. This forecast is based on air pressure trend measurements. The forecasted weather is indicated via animated symbols toward the top. Day Night (6:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.) (6:00 p.m. - 6:00 a.m.) Sunny/Clear Partially cloudy Cloudy Rain Snow If a temperature of 2 °C or lower is registered at the radio sensor on channel 1, snow is indicated instead of rain.
Temperature/Humidity The radio weather station can show the following information for each assigned radio sensor: %RH COM • Current, minimum and maximum measured values for temperature and relative humidity (in percent). • Comfort zone (WET, COM, DRY) and trend symbols (rising, falling, steady). Displaying temperature and humidity of the radio sensors The individual radio sensors can be selected manually to have them display, for example, the outside temperature: 1.
Displaying minimum/maximum values The radio weather station saves the minimum and maximum temperature and humidity values. These values can be polled as follows: 1. Press Mode until ▼ is found in the temperature/humidity area. 2. Choose between the inside temperature and the desired radio sensor (channels 1 through 5) with Ch. 3. Switch between the maximum, minimum and current values with Memo. The current values are displayed again 10 seconds after the last push of the button.
Calibrating display of inside temperature Depending on the installation site of the radio weather station, the displayed inside temperature may deviate from the actual room temperature. The display of the inside temperature can be adjusted by +/- 10° in 1° increments: 1. Press Mode until ▼ is found in the temperature/humidity area. 2. Select the display of the inside temperature with Ch. 3. Press and hold Set until the temperature display flashes. ✓ The current measured temperature - 10° is displayed. 4.
Barometer Hr hPa mb The weather station indicates the current air pressure and charts air pressure fluctuations to create a weather forecast. Displaying air pressure history The weather station saves the measured air pressure from the last 24 hours. These values are polled as follows: 1. Press Mode until ▼ is found in the barometer area. 2. Select the individual measured values with Memo. shows the time of the measurement here. Hr ✓ The current air pressure is displayed again approx.
Radio controlled clock The radio sensor automatically sets the time and date using official time signals from Mainflingen, Germany (near Frankfurt am Main) or Rugby (Great Britain). The time signals are received by the radio sensor if it is located within approx. 1,500 km from the time signal transmitter and are forwarded to the radio weather station. The initial reception can last 2 - 10 minutes and is started when the Search button on the radio sensor is pressed.
Setting time, date and language 1. Press Mode until ▼ is found in the clock area. 2. Press and hold Mode until the time zone compensation flashes. 3. Set the time zone compensation (+/- 23 hours) with Set and confirm with Mode. 4. Make the following settings in the exactly the same way.
Display symbols Trend display The temperature, humidity and air pressure trends are displayed via the following symbols: rising steady falling Moon-phase indicator The weather station calculates the corresponding phase of the moon using the date: 22 waning crescent waning gibbous new moon full moon waxing crescent waning gibbous waxing crescent (first quarter) waning gibbous (last quarter)
House symbols The house symbol in the temperature/humidity area provides information on the selected channel and the reception status: Weather station is searching for radio sensors. Radio sensor on channel 1 transmitting data. (The number of the radio sensor is displayed). Weather station displays the data of the inside temperature and inside humidity.
