10 Preparation for mounting
Select an appropriate installation location. The following points/criteria must be noted.
10.1 Wireless signal transmission range
The transmission range of the wireless signal between the outdoor sensor and the weather station is up to 150 m
underoptimalconditions.However,theserangevaluesrefertotheso-called“free-eldrange”.Thisidealarrangement
(e.g. weather station and outdoor sensor on a plain, even meadow without trees, houses, etc.) never exists in practice.
The weather station is usually set up in the house, and the outdoor sensor is installed on or in a carport, a garage or
inthegarden.Differentobjectshaveadifferentimpactontherange;therefore,nospecicrangecanbeguaranteed.
Therangeshouldbesufcientforuseinadetachedhouse.Iftheweatherstationdoesnotreceiveanydatafrom
the outdoor sensor (despite new batteries being inserted), reduce the distance between the weather station and the
outdoor sensor. The range can be reduced considerably due to:
Walls and reinforced concrete ceilings
Coated/vapour-deposited insulating glass panes, aluminium windows, etc.
Vehicles
Trees, bushes, soil and rocks
Proximity to metal and conductive objects (e.g. radiators)
Proximity to human bodies
Broadband interference, e.g. in residential areas (DECT telephones, mobile phones, radio-controlled head-
phones, radio-controlled speakers, other weather stations operating on the same frequency, baby monitoring
systems, etc.)
Proximity to electric motors, transformers, power adapters
Proximity to mains sockets and network cables
Proximity to poorly shielded or uncovered computers or other electrical appliances
Otherdevicesoperatingonthesametransmissionfrequency(433or868MHz)
The following table shows the effect that different materials have on wireless transmission when placed between the
weather station and the outdoor sensor.
Obstacle Reduction in signal strength (in %)
Glass (not wired or metal-coated) 5 – 15%
Plastic 10 – 15%
Wood 10 – 40%
Brick 10 – 40%
Concrete 40 – 80%
Metal 90 – 100%
Choose the installation site of the outdoor sensor in a way that allows measuring precipitation. The outdoor
sensor must be exposed to the sky to ensure that the precipitation is measured accurately. There should be
no obstacles in the immediate vicinity. Wind must be able to blow onto the wind sensors on all sides to ensure
accurate wind readings. Avoid areas with downdraughts or turbulence (e.g. behind chimneys or between close-
spaced roofs).

18
10.2 Tips for safe installation
Metal objects and the tops of tall buildings are susceptible to lightning strikes. Never install the outdoor
sensor during storms. Wait for a dry day with good weather.
Use fall protection equipment such as a safety harness and a net in the following scenarios:
When you are working on/above water or other areas into which you may sink in the event of a fall (e.g.
a pond), regardless of your height above the ground.
Above 1 m: When you are working on a stable surface, staircases/landings and wall openings.
Above 3 m: When you are working on a roof.
All other surfaces that are more than 2 m above the ground.
Secureanyholesinoors,ceilingsandroofswithprotectiveequipmentfortheentiredurationoftheinstallation
process!
Secure materials and tools to the surface to prevent them from falling off!
The area below the installation surface must be cordoned off when you are working.
Markthehazardousareabelowtheinstallationsurfacewithwarningsignssuchas“Warning,roofworkinpro-
gress”, or close off the area to unauthorised personnel.
If you are mounting the detachable parts in an elevated position, secure them with a separate device in addition
to the mounting mast.

19
11 Mounting the outdoor sensor and putting it into operation
Before installing the weather station on the place of operation, we recommend placing the weather station at a
temporary location with easy access for one week. This applies more to the outdoor sensor, as the indoor station
is usually accessible anyway. This will let you check all functions, ensure proper operation, and get familiar with
the weather station and its calibration procedures.
Youwillneedacross-headscrewdriver(sizePH0)andamediumat-headscrewdrivertoperformtheinstallation.
11.1 Inserting the batteries in the outdoor sensor
The two batteries serve as backup power source for the outdoor sensor. The solar cell and the included power
adapter are the principal power sources.
When the outdoor temperature drops below 0 °C for a sustained period, we recommend using lithium batteries
for the outdoor sensor instead of alkaline ones.
Unscrew the slotted screw xing the battery
cover (S)usingaat-headscrewdriver.
The screw secures the cover.
Remove the battery cover.
Insert 2 AA batteries (not included) into the
battery compartment.
Ensure the polarity is correct. Observe the
corresponding marks on the top of the battery
compartment.
Replace the cover and carefully screw the slot-
ted screw back in.
The status LED (on top of the sensor) (P)
lights up for about 3 seconds and then normal-
lyashesevery8.8seconds(sensortransmis-
sion update period).
11.2 Attaching the rubber ring
Unless already mounted, place the rubber ring
on the outdoor sensor before mounting the
outdoor sensor.
ÆThis ring protects the outdoor sensor from
moisture.
Seegureontheright.

20
11.3 Installing the outdoor sensor
The outdoor sensor can be mounted on a pipe, pole, rod, etc., with a diameter of 2.54 cm (1 inch).
Important!
Ensure the pipe (or similar) is level before mounting the sensor on it. Otherwise, this may damage the sensor and
result in inaccurate readings. If necessary, use a spirit level for alignment.
When mounting the outdoor sensor, ensure it
is aligned correctly.
Orient the sensor so that the north alignment
mark (N) points north. Use a compass if nec-
essary.
ÆFailing this, wind direction will not be de-
termined correctly.
First,loosenthexingnutontheundersideof
the outdoor sensor (N).
Normally, it is enough if it is screwed on about
halfway.
Push the sensor onto the pipe (or similar) as
far as it will go.
Caution!
When the connection cable for the power
adapter (T) should be laid in the pipe (or sim-
ilar), unscrew the xing nut (N) completely
and route the connection cable (T) inside.
This is how you feed the cable into the pipe.
The connection cable for the power adapter
must also be drawn in the pipe and connect-
ed to the outdoor sensor before mounting the
sensor. Please refer to the next chapter.
Tightenthexingnut(N) by hand until the sen-
sor is secure.
