Safety Notes for Installation
Installation, checking, start-up and correction of faults in the Weather Station
must be carried out only by a qualified technician.
When connecting the Weather Station, ensure that there is no voltage on the
intended wiring (switch off fuses in the conservatory circuit).
Take safety measures against unintentional switching on.
Pay attention to correct wiring connections. Awrong connection can lead to
destroying the Weather Station or the electronic devices connected to it.
When the Weather Station is damaged it must not be put into operation.
Do not open the Weather Station whenever water (rain or snow) can enter. Even
small drops can damage the electronics.
When installing, it is important that the temperature sensor (a small chip on the
underside of the housing) is not damaged.
The wiring connections between the chip and rain sensor must not be torn off or
bent.

1.3 Technical Data
1.4 Application
The Weather Station measures temperature, wind speed as well as brightness. It
recognises rain and receives a DCF radio signal for date and time. The Weather Station
is included in delivery with the conservatory controls Climax, as well as AS 315N and
intended for use in combination with these.

2 Installation
Select the position for installation on the building or in the conservatory where wind and
rain can be determined by the sensors without hindrance. No construction parts may be
placed above the Weather Station from which water drops can fall onto the rain sensor
after it has stopped raining or snowing. The Weather Station may not be positioned in the
shade of the building or in tree shade. 60 cm free space must be allowed under the Wea-
ther Station in order to attain a correct wind measurement and to hinder snowing-over in
snowy conditions.
Metal constructions or large surface metal sheets directly behind or near the Weather Sta-
tion reduce the receiving quality of the built-in radio receiver. Please take this into consi-
deration when selecting the position for installation. Likewise, magnetic fields, transmitters
and interference from electrical devices (e.g. strip lamps, lighted signs, switching circuits
etc.) can negatively influence the reception of the DCF signal.
2.1 Installation
2.1.1 Installation Recommendations
Secure the Weather Station on a vertical wall or mast.
•Install the Weather Station in the horizontal position.
Note: The supply cable must not exceed 30m in length.
Attention: Setting up, checking, start-up and correcting faults in the
system must be carried out only by a qualified technician
(VDE 0100 - 0200)!
Connect the intended wiring for installation without voltage.
Ensure safety measures against unintentional switching on.
• secure the holder vertically on the wall or mast.
With wall installation:
• Install the holder with the flat side facing the wall. The
shoulder (1) must be facing upwards.

2.1.2 Installation of the wall / mast holder
With mast installation:
• Install the holder with the rounded side to the mast. The
shoulder (1) must be facing downwards.
• Secure the holder with two suitable screw-thread clamps
(not included in delivery). 1
Note: When installing the Weather Station on a wall, pipe or on a
beam, the optional arm bracket, Ref. 9014588, can be used.

2 Installation
• Take off the top part of the Weather Station housing.
Be careful not to tear off the wiring connections
between the chip in the under part of the rain sensor
(wire with plug).
• Feed the cable (voltage supply, bus connection) through
the rubber seal (1) on the bottom of the Weather Station
and connect voltage and bus to the intended clips (2).
The supply line to the Weather Station must not
exceed 30m in length. The connection is made with
standard telephone cable, (J-Y(ST)Y 2 x 2 x 0,8).

2 Installation
Using the adjusting screw (1), the antenne can be turned
in an angle of 180° for optimum positioning. Reception
occurs when the LED control light (2) blinks once per
second (in the 59th second blinking will stop once).
Note: The antenna for DCF reception of date
and time is situated in the housing under
the chip.

• Close the housing by bringing the top part of the
housing over the base.
The top part must click in with a clear “click“ sound.
• Move the Weather Station from above in the mounted
holder.
The edged peg sides of the holder must click in to
the grooves of the housing
The Weather Station can be taken off the holder by
pushing it upwards carefully against the resistance of the
grooves.
3 Servicing the Weather Station
The Weather Station should be checked regularly twice a year for dirt and cleaned
when necessary. When the wind sensor is subject to a lot of dirt it may malfunction by
recognising a continuous rain message or that there is no more sunshine.
Attention: When servicing the Weather Station and damage is identi-
fied, it must be taken out of operation.
