Mounting options
The weather station is intended to be located on flat surfaces, such
as on tables or in cabinets. Through the loop on the rear of the
transmitter, the transmitter is suitable for mounting on walls.
Please mount the sensor outside in a sheltered place to avoid
direct heavy rain and direct sunshine for best results & readings.
Operating conditions
Set the weather station on in a dry interior and away from sources of
interference, such as televisions or metal plates. The transmitter
should be mounted protected from rain and direct sunlight.
Before putting in the batteries:
First of all, find your location altitude, this will be needed as you
set up this weather station’s barometer correctly, the easiest
way to get this is to put your postcode into the following site:
https://www.daftlogic.com/sandbox-google-maps-find-
altitude.htm
and / or search on Google for "daftlogic altitude" or any
other site on where you feel fit to find the correct altitude for
location, Make a note of your altitude in to round up or down to
the nearest 10 meters. Now using the table in the back of this
instruction book, find your nearest city and make a note of the 3
digit code to enter later. And after this follow the next Initial
operation setup.

~ 10 ~
Initial Operation Set Up:
Open the battery compartment located on the rear side of the
outdoor sensor and weather station. Place the batteries in the
battery compartment of sensor first, then in weather station, please
pay attention to the polarity;
As soon as weather station main display unit have power, The
altitude flashes ( for 20 seconds ) with in these 20 seconds ,
please use “+“, “-“ buttons to set the altitude of your position (in
meters).
Using “+“, “-“ button and go to 0 ( Zero ) first and then by
pressing “+“, “-“ button , choose. Your location altitude,
then press “HISTORY”, button.
After pressing history button , weather symbol flashes, press the
"+", "-" button to select the weather symbol that fits the current
weather , then press “HISTORY”, button , after that hPa flashes,
then please use “+“,“-“ button to select between the air pressure
units hPa and inHG and then press “HISTORY”.
Now leave the weather station and don’t do any thing.
(Please note: If cannot enter altitude within 20 seconds, No
worries, then remove batteries and then start again fresh) .
Weather station now will start connecting to the outdoor sensor.
This process takes about 3 minutes. Then the display shows the
outdoor temperature and humidity, in case of failure of reception

~ 11 ~
please press and hold “CHANNEL“ button for more than 3
seconds to restart the search process again.
Then the automatic reception of the MSF radio signal starts after 3
minutes of outdoor reception.
While the RCC reception process is going on, the flashing symbol
“radio tower “appears in the time display area, ( Weather station
may require for 5 to 20 minutes for it to pick up the radio control
signal, it may fail, if it is near a computer or TV or WiFi hub or
moblie phones or similar electrical equipment etc , due to
interference, so keep it away from those sorts of things. Also
please note in some areas, it can take longer , from few
mintues to few hours or max by 1am to 5 am
Once radio signal reception was successful, the display shows a
static “radio tower“ symbol with correct time and date. After this
only thing you would need to change is correct display of your
nearest city and for this Hold Mode button for 3 seconds, then you
will see year flashing, after this keep pressing the Mode button
until the country/city is flashing, now cycle through this with the
plus or minus key until you find your required, the city code , This
will or can take a good few clicks. Once you see your required
city code then press mode button one more time, after this you all
set. This will setup the sunset and sunrise times, these are
approximate based on the nearest city, the moon rise/set times will
also be set. The rise/set times may take several minutes before
they update, and it isn't unusual to see the moon rise or set time
as ----- ---- ----- ---- , this just means it will show with next few
mintues to next 24H.
If, due to bad reception, or no RCC automatic time reception is
possible, follow the steps below for manual time setting, as described
in the section "Manual Settings".

MSF Reception of radio controlled Information:
Automatic time change for Spring & Autumn and automatic
time checks, accurate to 1 second in 10 million years, have
automatic set up for time and calendar (where applicable),
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) which is the UK's
home of measurement and the nation's timekeeping. NPL is
responsible for operating the national time system and
making accurate time available across the UK. This clock
keep accurate time by picking up the NPL's radio signal,
called MSF, which is transmitted on 60KHz from Cumbria.
This transmission carries a date and time code that the radio
controlled products use to set themselves to the correct time
and date. The signal is controlled by atomic clocks at the
radio station and are adjusted to keep in step with the
national time maintained at NPL laboratory in London.
Reception of radio controlled signal Information:
MSF radio signal search starts automatically about 3 minutes after
battery exchange. The “radio tower” signal is flashing.
Press“+“ and “-“ together for more than 3 seconds to enter or quit
the radio controlled signal reception
The clock synchronizes with the MSF radio signal automatically
and daily from AM 1:00 am to 3:00 am to correct time deviations
each hour. If the synchronization is unsuccessful (“radio
tower“ symbol disappears), a further synchronization attempt is
made from 4:00am and
5:00 am until success. This process is repeated up until 5:00 AM.
If still not successful, the daily reception stops.
Flashing “radio tower” symbol is displayed, while MSF radio signal
reception is running.

~ 13 ~
A static “radio tower” symbol is displayed after the MSF radio
signal reception was successful.
Please keep a minimal distance of 2.5m to sources of interference
such as televisions or computer screens.
The radio signal reception is weaker in rooms with concrete walls
(e.g. in the basement) and in office buildings. For extreme cases,
please put the clock near a window.
There are less atmospheric disturbances at night. A radio time
signal reception is usually possible at that time. One
synchronisation per day is sufficient to keep the time display
accuracy at 1 second.
Tip:
You can adjust the time manually in case the clock cannot receive the
MSF radio signal (due to interferences, large distance to the sender,
obstructions like mountains, etc.) As soon as the radio signal can be
received, the clock will be adjusted automatically. Radio signal
sender coverage up to 1500km distance to from signal is transmitted
from Anthorn Radio Station in Cumbria.

The bar graph indicates the air pressure history trend over the last 12
hours in 6 intervals: 0h, -1h, -2h, -3h, -6h, and -12h. The “0h”
represents the current full hour air pressure recording. The columns
represent the “hPa” (0, ±2, ±4, ±6) or inHg (0, ±0,06, ±0,12, ±0,18) at
specific time. The “0” in the middle of this scale is equal to the current
pressure and each change (±2, ±4, ±6 or ±0,06, ±0,12, ±0,18)
represents how high or low in “hPa“ or “inHg” the past pressure was
compared to the current pressure.
For accurate barometric pressure trends, the weather station should
operate at the same altitude for recordings (i.e. it should not be
moved from the ground to the second floor of the house). When the

Outdoor transmitters must be distributed to different channels.
Trouble shooting
The weather station obtains the accurate time with wireless
technology. Same as all wireless devices, the reception is maybe
affected by the following circumstances:
• Long transmitting distance
• Nearby mountains and valleys
• Among tall buildings
• Near freeway, railway, airports, high voltage cable etc.
• Near construction site

~ 20 ~
• Inside concrete buildings
• Near electrical appliances (computers, TV’s, etc)
• Inside moving vehicles
• Near metallic structures
Place the station at a location with optimal signal, i.e. close to a
window and away from metal surfaces or electrical appliances.
Keep in mind that the outdoor transmitter only has the optimal
transmission range in open area with no obstructions. Each
obstruction between the transmitter and the station (roof, walls, floors,
ceilings, thick trees, etc.) will effectively cut the transmission range in
half.
