TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Main unit

In the case of charging using batteries open the battery cover and insert three AAA alkaline batteries. Observe the marked polarities. When switching on all

segments the LCD display will light up for a moment and the device will beep. Then it will go into standard mode of measuring temperature and humidity.

In the case of charging using a AC/DC adapter connect the charging connector to the input socket at the meteorological station and then connect to an electrical

socket.

Reset the equipment by removing the batteries or disconnecting the adapter for at least five seconds. That will return the settings to their defaults and will delete

the memory. In the case of charging using batteries the display lights up and stays lit for eight seconds each time. In the case of charging using an adapter it is lit

constantly.

You can only pair up the main unit with three sensors. Each sensor is charged by two AAA alkaline batteries.

Initial settings: 24-hour time format shows 00:00, pressure is in hPa units, and temperature is in °C

We recommend using alkaline batteries with a rated voltage of 1.5V for

the LCD display to be the correct luminescence. Rechargeable NiMH

batteries usually have a 1.2V rated voltage and the luminescence of the

LCD display is therefore worse.

3. FUNCTIONS AND WORKING OF DEVICE

3.1. Time setting

In the real time mode press and hold the MODE button for more than three seconds. That gets you into time setup mode. The active segment starts flashing. The

order of setup is time zone –hours –minutes –years –months –days –language - exit. Pressing the UP button moves one step forwards; pressing the button for

longer than two seconds moves forwards at a speed of eight steps per second. Pressing the DOWN button moves one step back; by pressing the button for longer

than two seconds you can move backwards at a speed of eight steps per second. Pressing the MODE button confirms the settings. If you don't press any button

for ten seconds then the values get stored the way that you set them up.

3.2. Alarm setup

In standard mode pressing the MODE button switches between real time, alarm 1 and alarm 2. Default setting: alarm 1 is at 06:00 and alarm 2 is at 00:00.

In Alarm 1 setup mode (AL1) press the MODE button and hold it for more than two seconds. That way you enter Alarm 1 setup mode. The active segment begins

to flash. Order of setup: hour → minute → exit. Press the UP button to proceed one step forwards; holding it down for longer moves through the steps faster.

Pressing the DOWN button moves one step back; holding it down for long moves through the steps faster. Pressing the MODE button confirms the setting. If you

don't press any button for ten seconds then the values get stored the way that you set them up. To set up alarm 2 (AL2) proceed in the same way.

3.3. Wake-up function

In real time mode press the ALARM button to switch the alarm on and off in the following order: Switch on Alarm 1 (AL1) –Switch on Alarm 2 (AL2) –Alarm 1

(AL1) and Alarm 2 (AL2) switched on - Alarm 1 (AL1) and Alarm 2 (AL2) switched off. When the alarm starts to ring, the symbol appears on the display and

starts flashing together with the AL alarm symbol. Pressing SNOOZE/LIGHT postpones the alarm. Pressing any other button switches the alarm off. The alarm

switches itself off automatically after two minutes. When the alarm sounds no RCC signal is received, it gets renewed after the alarm is switched off. If the same

time is set for both alarms then AL1 flashes on the display. The alarm can be postponed for a discretionary time. Alarm sound is in the following order: a) 0-10

seconds: one beep per second, b) 10 –20 seconds two beeps per second, c) after 20 seconds –four beeps per second.

3.4. Snooze setup

In standard mode pressing the SNOOZE/LIGHT button for more than three seconds switches on the snooze setting (interval set up to you from three to twenty

minutes, the default setting is five minutes). The active segment starts flashing. Pressing the UP button moves one step forwards; holding it down for longer moves

faster. Pressing the DOWN button moves one step back; holding it down longer moves faster. Pressing the MODE button confirms the setting. If you haven't

pressed any button for ten seconds, the values will be stored the way that you set them up.

3.5. Sensor switching function

In real time mode pressing the CHANNEL button switches between channels (CH1, CH2, CH3 or cyclical repetition of all three channels). During cyclical repetition

the symbol appears on the display. In cyclical repetition display of three channels mode the values change by themselves. If less than three outdoor sensors

are connected then random data are displayed during cyclical repetition on channels that are not connected.

3.6. Sensor pairing function

First you have to set up different channels on individual sensors. Open the battery cover and use the positionable switch to set channel number 1, 2 or 3. Then

insert the batteries and close the cover. When switching the meteorological station on the first time the sensors will automatically get paired. However, if you

want to change the pairing then switch channel using the CHANNEL button and then hold it for more than two seconds. The pairing takes about three minutes. If

the pairing is unsuccessful then the meteorological station is apparently beyond reach of signal.

3.7. Temperature alarm setup function

In real time mode pressing the ALERTS button switches between a warning of the highest and lowest room and outdoor temperatures in the following order:

highest outdoor temperature –lowest outdoor temperature - highest room temperature –lowest room temperature.

Display with highest

outdoor temperature

Display with highest room

temperature

Display with lowest outdoor

temperature

Display with lowest room

temperature

In the maximum or minimum temperature display mode use the UP and DOWN buttons to switch the temperature alarm on and off. If the alarm is on then the

symbol appears on the display. In real time mode pressing and holding the ALERTS button for three seconds enters into the mode of setting a warning for

highest and lowest room and outdoor temperatures in the following order: highest outdoor temperature –lowest outdoor temperature - highest room

temperature –lowest room temperature - exit. Range of display: outdoor temperature -40°C to +70°C and room temperature 0°C to +50°C. The active segment

starts flashing. Pressing the UP button moves one step forwards; holding it down longer moves faster. Pressing the DOWN button moves one step back; holding

it down longer moves faster. Pressing the ALERTS button confirms the setting. If you don't press any button for ten seconds then the values get stored the way

that you set them up.

3.8. Reception of RCC control signal

Reception of RCC signal starts automatically after the device is switched on or reset. Forced reception of RCC signal: press the DOWN button for more than two

seconds. The signal is received automatically every day. Automatic reception takes place at the following times of day: 1:00, 2:00 and 3:00. In the event of an error,

there are more attempts to receive a signal at 4:00 and 5:00. If reception is unsuccessful, it gets repeated the next day at 1:00. If a signal is successfully received

at 4:00 then reception for the given day is not repeated. If reception of signal at 4:00 is unsuccessful then it is repeated at 5:00. In RCC signal reception mode the

icon flashes. If RCC signal is received then the icon flashes. If an RCC signal is successfully received then the icon lights up and reception of signal

ends. If the signal is weak or if the device is unable to distinguish what the correct signal is then only the symbol flashes. Pressing the DOWN button during

RCC signal reception ends its reception. Pressing the SNOOZE/LIGHT button switches on the under-lighting of the display and reception of RCC signal will not be

interrupted. If the alarm is activated in RCC signal reception mode, the device switches from reception mode into wake-up mode. After reset the RCC symbols go

away.

3.9. Weather forecast function

Six levels of weather forecast: sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, showers, thunderstorms, snow. The values on the barometer change every hour. The display constantly

shows 'LEARNING PRESSURE', meaning that it is continuously reading values of barometric pressure. Dynamic display of weather forecast.

3.10. Lighting of display and overview of abbreviations for days in calendar

If the meteorological station is powered by batteries, then by pressing any key the display lights up for eight seconds. If the under-lighting of the display is weak

then replace the batteries. If powering using an adapter, when the alarm is switched on the display lights up and then when it finishes it turns off. The display has

a sound sensor and it can be lit up by a sound signal, for example a clap, whistle or similar –that applies only for charging using batteries.
