appear, the time is shown via the internal clock of the weather station. The DCF77 station is situated in

Frankfurt, Germany. The reception of the DCF77 time is basically possible in the whole of Western Europe.

During daylight saving time, ‘DST’ will appear underneath the symbol.

2.5 Pairing the weather station / outdoor unit:

type. After 15 seconds the weather stations enters the reception mode from the outdoor unit and starts

searching for a signal from the outdoor unit. Therefore, if you insert the batteries into the outdoor unit

the weather station will show the temperature transmitted by the outdoor unit. The weather station will then

switch to the reception of the DCF-77 time signal to synchronise with the station in Frankfurt (see Clock).

Manually:

If the units cannot be paired automatically, or after replacing the batteries, you can pair the

outdoor unit (again) with the weather station unit as follows:

1. press and hold the ▲ button on the weather station for 2 seconds until the

3. the units will have found each other (again) after several seconds

3. POSITIONING THE OUTDOOR UNIT

When the outdoor unit is registered on the weather station and everything is working properly, you may

place the outdoor unit with outdoor sensor (wind and rain sensor) outside. You may choose to place the

or on a pole (max. Ø 37mm. (not included)). In any case, make sure that the unit is situated at least 1.5

meters above the ground and that the unit is placed freely in the rain and wind. Lead the cable of the wind

and rain sensor through the post and feet base.

Because the outdoor sensor and outdoor unit are connected with a cable, the outdoor unit may be placed

closer to the weather station (max. distance 30 meters) or at eye-level to easily read the outdoor unit.

In case of wall-mounting, the weather station and outdoor unit may be suspended from a single screw. You

Outdoor unit placement tips:

To have the rain and wind meter function as accurate as possible, the rain and wind meter must be placed

exactly horizontal.

To be able to indicate from which direction the wind is blowing, the rain and wind unit must face the North.

Make sure that the wind vane is aimed to the front (the rear of the wind

vane is located above the arm and closest to the rain sensor. for this, see

the “direction for setting wind vane” marking above the rain and wind

meter. Use an accurate compass (not included) to properly aim the unit.

See 6.5 Wind Measurement - Wind Direction to activate the wind rose in

the display.

Weather conditions:

When the animation indicates rain, but one of the temperature displays is below

0°C, snow will be displayed in the animation.

Frost alert:

The frost alert icon

will appear in the display when the outdoor temperature is

between -2°C and +3°C.
