Technical data

1. First, remove the cover of the battery compartment.
2. Then put two AA batteries in the compartment. Remember to keep the polarity of batteries
while putting them into the compartment according to the markings inside.
3. In the end, place the battery compartment cover back in place.
Warning!
The external transmitter handles transmissions in an open space without obstac-
les, for a distance up to 30 m. The actual transmission range may vary depending
on the signal route. Each obstacle (roof, walls, floors, ceilings, high trees etc.)
reduces the transmission range by half.
Once a channel is assigned to a sensor, you can change it only by removal
of batteries or the use of the RESET button. Then, press the [SENSOR]
button to pair it with the station.
Remember to place the sensor to protect it against direct sunlight, rain
and snow.
Preparation of the external sensor to operation

s1 weather station configuration

1. First, connect the power adaptor to a permanent power supply.
2. Then press [RESET] button to restart the clock and to start an automatic synchronisation
with time signal transmitter.
3. To pair the station properly with the sensor, first power sensor on and then press the
[RESET] button on the station (the sensor does not have to be reset now).
Warning!
The material of the building, as well as the location of the receiver and transmitter one
to another can affect the range of the device. Try to place them in different places to
achieve the best range.
In order to limit the impact of interferences, place both units away from metal items and
electric devices. The station and sensor should be at a distance necessary to reach an
effective range: the distance an open space should be 30 at maximum.
Preparation for the use of the station

then in the afternoon at 2:00 PM and 8:00 PM.
Place the station beyond the range of possible sources of interferences, for example
TVs or computers.
Do not place the station near metal partitions.
It is recommended to use the station in enclosed spaces, such as airport, production
sites etc.
