6.Check the cable for correct connection and test all the components for correct functionality by manually turning the wind-gauge; tilting the optional rain sensor to hear the impact of the internal moving seesaw, etc. (See Positioning below).

7.Time and date must be manually set (See Manual Setting below).

8.After the Weather Center has been tested and found fit, the initial set up of the weather station system is finished and the mounting of the system components can take place. Ensure that all components work properly together at their chosen mounting or standing locations before permanent mounting.

For example, if there appears to be problems with the 915 MHz radio transmissions, they can often be overcome by slightly changing the mounting locations or turning the base station.

NOTE:

The radio communication between the receiver and the transmitters in the open field reaches distances of up to 330 feet/ 100 meters, provided there are no interfering obstacles such as buildings, trees, vehicles, high voltage lines, etc.

9.Radio interferences created by cordless phones, PC screens; radios or TV sets can in some cases entirely cut off radio communication. Please consider this when choosing standing or mounting locations.

NOTE:

∙After batteries are installed in the transmitter, install the batteries in the weather center to receive the signal from the transmitters as soon as possible. If the weather center is powered more than 5 hours after the transmitter is powered, the weather center will never receive signal successfully from the transmitters. In this case, you will need to reinstall the batteries from all the transmitters to redo set-up procedure.

∙After batteries are installed, there will be synchronization between Weather Center and the transmitters. At this time, the signal reception icon will be blinking. When the signal is successfully received by the Weather Center, the icon will be switched on (If it is not successful, the icon will not be shown).

∙The short blinking of the icon shows that a reception is in progress.

∙If the signal reception is not successful on the first frequency (915MHz) for 45 seconds, the frequency is changed to 920MHz and the learning is tried another 45 seconds. If still not successful, the reception is tried for 45 seconds on 910MHz. This will also be done for re-synchronization.

HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE THE BATTERIES INTO THE THERMO-HYGRO TRANSMITTER
