6. Definition of terms
Dew Point:
The dew point (Dew Point) refers to the point at which
the air releases water vapour in the form of fog and/or
condensate.
Example: if the air is cooled down constantly and
the air humidity stays the same, the relative air hu-
midity increases to 100%. This means that the dew
point has been reached and the cooled air contains
the maximum possible water vapour at this temperature.
Heat Index:
The heat index (Heat Index) is the air temperature
felt on the human body taking into consideration
the measured air temperature and the air humidity.
Wind Chill:
The wind chill (Wind Chill) refers to the difference
between the measured (air temperature) and the tem-
perature felt on the human body, which depends on
the wind speed. The wind chill is the measurement
used for wind-dependant cooling of an object.
Humans feel this wind chill particularly on the face.
As wind chill can only be calculated for temperatures
close to or under the 0°C limit, it is mostly replaced
by the heat index for higher temperatures (Heat Index).

8. Commissioning
WARNING!
Familiarize yourself with the weather station, wind
gauge and rain gauge before assembly. The operating
instructions are easier to understand if you are hold-
ing the devices in your hand while reading them.
Setting up the weather station:
The weather station comes with a pre-assembled
stand, making it easy to set up the weather station
in the desired position.
1
PH0 0.5x 3
ø 5mm 5mm
10mm
Weather station – wall mounting:
1. Mark the drill holes (horizontal distance approxi-
mately 11.3cm) for the weather station and
make sure that no electrical or water lines will be
damaged before drilling the holes (ø 5mm).
2. Push the dowel into the drilled hole until it is
flush with the wall.
3. Screw the supplied screws into the dowels,
allowing them to protrude slightly for the weather
station to be hung on.
The pre-assembled stand can be removed from the
weather station. Fold the stand downwards and pull
it out of the slot. To attach again, follow the same
procedure in reverse order.

Wind gauge assembly:
Choose a suitable location for your wind gauge.
– The wind gauge must be set up outdoors.
– The wind must be able to access the wind
gauge from all sides to enable the wind force
and wind direction to be measured accurately.
– Ensure that the vane and the wind wheel are not
blocked to guarantee accurate measurements.
– The wind gauge must be assembled within the
signal transmission range. Walls reduce the
transmission range. Check the signal reception
on the weather station before final assembly.
Ideally, the wind gauge should be mounted on a
mast or roof of a house, where the wind can act
directly on the wind gauge.
A mast is required with a diameter of approx.
25–31mm (not included) which stands stable and
vertical. Mount the wind gauge as shown below
with the hexagonal socket head bolt, washers,
mounting screws and nuts provided. After assembly,
ensure that the wind gauge is positioned horizontal-
ly with a stable hold.
The wind gauge must be positioned horizontally to
guarantee accurate measurements.

Setting up the rain gauge:
Choose a suitable location for the rain gauge.
– The rain gauge must be positioned outdoors.
The device must not be impaired by objects and
obstructions. Do not position under trees or next
to walls.
– The rain must be able to fall on the rain gauge
without obstructions to achieve an accurate
rainfall measurement.
– Ensure that rain water does not accumulate under
the rain gauge. It must be able to flow off freely.
– The rain gauge must be assembled within the
range of the signal transmission. Walls reduce
the transmission range. Check the signal reception
on the weather station before final assembly.
When you have found a suitable position, ensure
that the surface is completely horizontal to guarantee
accurate rainfall measurement.
The rain gauge can simply be stood in the desired
position or fixed with the screws provided.
1. Mark the drill holes using the rain gauge before
drilling the holes (ø 5mm), ensure that no elec-
trical cables or water pipes can be damaged.
2. Push the supplied dowel into the drilled hole
until it is flush with the wall.
3. Fix the rain gauge with the screws provided.

cent fastening screws on the housing of the rain
gauge.
– Lift the housing carefully off the base of the device.
– To open the battery compartment, loosen the
4 cross-head screws on the battery compart-
ment cover.
– Lift off the battery compartment cover.
– Insert the batteries (2x1.5V type AA) ensuring
correct polarity.
– Place the battery compartment lid on the battery
compartment again. Ensure that the sealing ring
on the battery compartment is positioned cor-
rectly in the recess. Only then is the battery

11. Preparing the wind gauge and
rain gauge and registering on
the weather station
11.1 Calibrating the wind gauge
The wind gauge must be recalibrated after every
battery change. Follow the procedure outlined below:
– Before inserting the battery, point the vane north.
– Ensure that the wind wheel does not turn.
– Insert the batteries, ensuring correct polarity
(see the instructions listed under Point 9. Inserting
and replacing batteries/Wind gauge).
– The transmission signal LED lights up briefly.
The wind gauge is now calibrated.

11.2 Preparing the rain gauge
– Insert the batteries in the rain gauge (see the
instructions listed under Point 9. Inserting and
replacing batteries/Rain gauge).
– Remove the transport protection which holds
the rain rocker.
11.3 Automatic wind gauge and
rain gauge registration on
the weather station
After inserting batteries in the wind gauge and the
rain gauge, insert batteries in the weather station
(see the instructions listed under Point 9. Inserting
and replacing batteries/Weather station).
The weather station searches automatically for the
transmission signals from the wind gauge and rain
gauge. The process takes approx. 4 minutes.
11.4 Manual wind gauge and rain
gauge registration on the
weather station
After the batteries have been replaced in the wind
gauge and rain gauges, they must be registered
again on the weather station. After replacing the
batteries and calibrating the wind gauge, press the
CHANNEL/SEARCH button on the weather station
for approx. 5 seconds. The entry is confirmed with
a confirmation tone. The measurement value dis-
plays now flash on the wind gauge and rain gauge
displays. The process can take up to 4 minutes

This functions sets the time and date automatically.
Press to activate the synchronisation for radio-
controlled DCF-77 time information.
Press and the symbol appears on the display.
When the transmission signal is received, a symbol
appears. If no radio waves appear, no DCF 77
reception is available in this location. If the reception
is stable, the symbol is shown continuously on
the display after approx. 3–5 minutes.
Press again to deactivate the DCF-77 synchroni-
sation.
WARNING!
The displays for time and date in Central Europe are
transferred via DCF-77 radio signals. The transmitter
is close to Frankfurt and transmits on a transmission
radius of approximately 1500km. If your weather
station receives this signal, it is not necessary to
switch to and from daylight savings time.
The reception quality can be restricted by the geo-
graphical location (e.g. deep valleys) or structural
conditions (e.g. behind concrete walls).
Electromagnetic fields can also have a negative in-
fluence on signal (DCF) reception. Position the
weather station and the external sensor in a suitable
location. Follow the instructions listed under “DCF-77
synchronisation” to switch on the transmission signal
again.
12.3 Setting the time zone
You can switch between local time and the selected
zone time while the time is displayed. The time zones
are divided into 24 zones. You can select a time
zone from +12 hours to –12 hours.
Setting the time zone:
Press and hold the ZONE button for approximately
3 seconds. A confirmation signal sounds and 0 flashes
on the display.
Press ▲ and ▼ to set the time zone. You can select
a time zone from +12 hours to –12 hours.
Press the ZONE button to return to the time display.
If no setting button is pressed for 60 seconds while
in the time zone setting mode, the weather station
automatically returns to the time display.
You can use the ZONE button to display the selected
time zone. ZONE appears next to the time. By pressing
the ZONE button again, you are returned to your
local time.
