CAUTION! When choosing where to position the weather station, make sure
that it is not exposed to direct sunlight, vibrations, dust, heat, cold or moisture. Do

13GB
not place the devices close to sources of heat, e.g. radiators. Otherwise they may
be damaged.
Do not place the devices on valuable or sensitive surfaces unless these are
appropriately protected. Otherwise they may be damaged.
Please ensure that neighbouring devices are not operated at the same frequency
of 433MHz. Such devices may cause interference to the radio connection.
Do not place the devices next to or on metal plates. Otherwise the quality of
radio wave transmission may be reduced.
Do not install the devices in buildings made of reinforced concrete, e.g. airports,
high-rise buildings, factories or cellars. Otherwise the transmission of the radio
waves between the devices may be severely impaired.
Preparing to use the outdoor sensor
Remove the battery compartment cover from the back of the outdoor sensor.
Remove the battery safety strip. The outdoor sensor is now ready for operation
and the control LED 41 lights up briefly.
Close the battery compartment cover.
Installing the Outdoor Sensor:
Note: You will need an electric drill for this step.

14 GB
Find an appropriate place for the outdoor sensor.
Note: Please ensure that you install the outdoor sensor within a radius of 30m
from the weather station. Check that there are no obstacles between the outdoor
sensor and the weather station. Otherwise there may be interference of the
transmission of data.
For wall mounting:
Hang the outdoor sensor with the mount 42 on one screw.
Preparing the weather station for use
Removing the battery safety strip:
Open the battery compartment 40 on the back of the weather station.
Pull out the battery safety strip.
Then close the battery compartment.
As soon as the battery safety strip has been removed, the weather station starts to
receive the radio signal.
Note: Do not move the weather station while it is receiving the signal. This may
disrupt reception.

15GB
Connecting the weather station with the outdoor sensor and the
DCF radio signal:
After removal of the battery safety strip the weather station attempts to establish a
connection with the outdoor sensor. This process can take a few minutes. The symbol
will keep flashing for few minutes. On successful connection with the outdoor sensor,
the selected channel symbol 27 appears in the LC display with the channel of the
outdoor sensor (if necessary you can change the channel of the outdoor sensor as
shown in the section “Setting the channel”). If the connection with the outdoor sen-
sor is not established automatically, this can be done manually as follows:
1. Press the channel button (CH) 37. The icon of the selected channel 27 will
flash in the LC-display.
2. Then press the RESET button 43 of the sensor.
As soon as the weather station has established a connection with the outdoor sensor
it automatically begins to receive the DCF radio signal. This process takes several
minutes and is indicated in the LC display by a flashing radio tower symbol 5.
When the DCF radio signal is being successfully received, the radio tower symbol
is shown permanently in the display. If at the time of putting the device into opera-
tion it is not possible to synchronise with the atomic clock, you can also carry out
the clock adjustments manually (“Setting the 12/24 hour mode/°C/°F/hPa/
inHg/time zone/time/date/language manually”).

16 GB
Radio signal (DCF):
The DCF signal (time signal transmitter) consists of time pulses emitted by one of
the most accurate clocks in the world close to Frankfurt/Main, Germany.
In ideal conditions, your weather station can pick up this signal over a distance of
up to approx. 2000km around Frankfurt/Main. Reception of the radio signal
generally takes approx. 3–10 minutes.
Reception can be considerably impaired by obstacles (e.g. concrete walls) or sources
of interference (e.g. other electrical devices). In the event of reception problems,
change the position of the weather station (e.g. to somewhere near a window).
Operation
Receiving the DCF radio time signal
After a connection with the outdoor sensor is established or 3 minutes after the battery
safety strip is removed, the weather station automatically begins to search for the
DCF radio signal. The search is shown in the LC display by the radio tower symbol 5
flashing.
Note: In buildings made of reinforced concrete the reception of the radio signal
may be severely impaired (see “Setting up the devices”).

17GB
In order to correct any deviations from the exact time, the clock is automatically
synchronised with the DCF radio signal every day at 1:00, 2:00 and 3:00.
Reception of the DCF radio signal can also be started manually on the weather station.
Press the + and – button 35, 36 at the same time. The weather station attempts
to receive the DCF radio signal. This process takes several minutes and is indi-
cated in the LC display by a flashing radio tower symbol.
If the connection with the DCF radio signal cannot be established, the search is stopped.
Note: If the clock of the weather station cannot receive the DCF radio signal due
to errors, too great a distance from the transmitter or similar reasons, it is possible
to set the time manually. If reception of the DCF signal is successful, the manual
settings are overwritten.
Setting the 12/24 hour mode/°C/°F/hPa/ inHg/
time zone/time/date/language manually
The reception of DCF radio signal where the weather station has been positioned may
become degraded or interrupted. If this happens you can set the device manually.
Follow these steps:
1.
Press and hold down the MODE button
34
for about 3 seconds. “12Hr” or “24Hr”
blinks in the display. Press the + or – button
