3.4.1 Initial Display Console Set Up

Note: The sensor array must be powered and updating before powering up the console, or the console will timeout searching for the sensors. Perform this step last.

Make certain the weather station sensor array is at least 10’ away from the console and within 300’ of the console. If the weather station is too close or two far away, it will not receive a proper signal.

Insert two AA batteries into the battery compartment on the back of the display. After inserting the batteries into the console, all of the LCD segments will light up for a few seconds to verify all segments are operating properly.

The unit will instantly display indoor temperature, humidity, barometer, tendency, date and time. The wind speed, wind direction, rain, and outdoor temperature and humidity will update on the display within a few minutes. Do not Press any menu keys until the outside transmitter report in, otherwise the outdoor sensor search mode will be terminated. When the outdoor transmitter data has been received, the console will automatically switch to the normal mode from which all further settings can be performed.

If it does not update, please reference the troubleshooting guide in Section 9.

3.4.2 Radio Controlled Clock (RCC)

After the remote sensor is powered up, the sensor will transmit weather data for 30 seconds, and then the sensor will begin radio controlled clock (RCC) reception. During the RCC time reception period (maximum 10 minutes), no weather data will be transmitted to avoid interference.

If the signal reception is not successful within 1 minute, the signal search will be cancelled and will automatically resume every two hours until the signal is successfully captured. The regular RF link will resume once RCC reception routine is finished. In some locations, RCC reception may take a couple of days to receive the signal.

3.4.3 Sensor Operation Verification

The following steps verify proper operation of the sensors prior to installing the sensor array.

1.Verify proper operation of the rain gauge. Tip the sensor array back and forth several times. You should hear a “clicking” sound within the rain gauge. Verify the rain reading on the display console is not reading 0.00. Each “click” represents 0.01 inches of rainfall.

2.Verify proper operation of the wind direction. Align the wind vane pointer to North (as determined in Section 3.3). Verify the display reads North. Repeat for each quadrant (North, South, East, and West).

3.Verify proper operating of the wind speed. Rotate the wind cups manually or with a fan. Verify the wind speed is not reading 0.0.

4.Verify proper operation of the indoor and outdoor temperature. Verify the indoor and outdoor temperature match closely with the console and sensor array in the same location (about 10’ apart). The sensors should be within 4°F (2°C) (the accuracy is ± 2°F / 1°C). Allow about 30 minutes for both sensors to stabilize.

5.Verify proper operation of the indoor and outdoor humidity. Verify the indoor and outdoor humidity match closely with the console and sensor array in the same location (about 10’ apart). The sensors should be within 8% (the accuracy is ± 4%). Allow about 30 minutes
