After inserting the batteries and connecting the AC/DC adapter, the
LCD of the Weather Station will, for a few seconds, display all possible
display segments for checking.
Immediately after this, the unit will enter the “play mode”, during which
for about 15 minutes all measured and received weather data are
being switched through, updated, and displayed. During this time
period there will be no reception of the WWVB time information.
Note: The play mode phase allows the user of the Weather Station to
check all cables for correct connection and all components for
correct function. The latter will be possible by manually turning
the wind-gauge, moving the weather-vane, etc.
After completing the play mode, the Touch Screen Weather Station will
automatically switch to the normal display mode from which all further
settings can be performed by the user. At this point of time, the unit will
also automatically start reception of the WWVB time information.
Important Note:
Reception of the radio-controlled time information will only take
place after completion of the play mode (approx. 15 minutes). If
the user wants to start the system without waiting for completion
of the play mode it can be terminated prematurely by touching
the TIME display once in the upper left corner of the LCD.
Prior to manual setting or reception of radio-controlled time
information there will be no recording of weather history data.
Once you have verified that all of the components of the weather
station are working, they can be positioned in their permanent places.
Before permanently mounting, make sure that all components work
properly together at their chosen mounting or standing locations. If e.g.
there appear to be problems with the 433 MHz radio transmission they
can mostly be overcome by moving the mounting locations.
