3.1.1.General settings

Illumination settings

To switch on the illumination, press any touch screen field on the display. The illumination will now remain switched on for the programmed time (after the last key press).

As standard, the illumination is active for 10s with battery operation and continuously on when using the AC power adaptor.

To switch off the illumination manually, press the “LIGHT OFF” key (bottom left, field 23). The times for the illumination can be set up in configuration mode.

Cleaning mode

As the display becomes dirty in use, it must be cleaned from time to time with a dry linen cloth (a cloth for cleaning eye glasses is most suitable, do not use cleaning fluids as the display could be damaged). In order that the set-up of the station is not altered when wiping the display, there is a cleaning mode where all touch screen fields are blocked for 30s. To activate the cleaning mode, press the top right hand touch screen field “HUMIDITY ” (field 6) for approximately 4seconds.

The display will then go off and only the time will be displayed. The display can now be cleaned. The normal display is resumed after 30s.

WWVB and sensor reception

Every day at 3 o’clock a WWVB reception is initiated as long as this has not been deactivated. If reception is not possible at this time, further attempts are made at 4:00, 5:00 and 6:00 o’clock.

HF sensor synchronization takes place each morning at 7:30 for 6 minutes. During this phase, new sensors or lost sensors are automatically recorded in the reception administration.

If a signal from a sensor is not received for approximately 12 hours (240 reception failures), then “ – – – ” will be displayed instead of the value. No further attempts will be made to receive the signal from the sensor.

However, if the sensor should be detected again at any time, it will be re-recorded in the weather station’s sensor administration at 7:30 in the morning (synchronization phase).

3.1.2.Configuration

Many of the weather station ’s parameters can be set up manually and individually in configuration mode:

-Illumination time for AC adaptor operation

-Illumination time for battery operation

-Rainfall per rocker stroke

-Air pressure correction

-Temperature display unit

-Rainfall display unit

-Air pressure display units

-Key confirmation tone

-Form of presentation for the history display

-Threshold value for registering sunshine

-Setting of date and time

-Sensor administration

The configuration mode is activated by pressing touch screen field 29, “ALARM VALUES”, for 3 seconds. The following diagram shows an example of a display with the configuration mode activated.

You can exit the configuration mode by pressing the “END ” key.
