7 2. Preparation for operation Start up all outdoor sensors first, then the base station. 2.1. The outdoor sensors The following outdoor sensors are available for the weather station: - E 9301 combi-sensor: This is a permanently addressed combination sensor consisting of rain sensor , instant rain detection sensor , wind speed sensor , outdoor temp[...]

8 The sensor will now be in synchronisation mode for about 5 minutes, during which one data packet will be sent every 4 seconds. - Close the housing again by pushing it up and tur ning it clockwise until it engages. - Erect the now fully assembled sensor within the possible transmission radius (up to 300 ft. in the open, but make allowances for the[...]

9 Setting up/W all mounting Depending on requir ements, the weather station can be hung on a vertical surface (wall) by means of the attachment eye or set up on a horizontal surface using the fold-out desk stand. - The desk stand is erected as illustrated in the following pictur es. It is important that the short claws of the desk stand are first i[...]

Please note! If you press and hold down the "+" or "-[...]

11 Set the date using the "+" and "-" keys. Press "NEXT" to go to the minutes setting. Set the minutes using the "+" and "-" keys. Press "NEXT" to go to the hours setting. Set the hours using the "+" and "-" keys. Pr ess "NEXT" to go to the setting of the dayl[...]

12 select a location near you and enter its coordinates. - If you have a GPS navigation system, e.g. in the car or a mobile device, you can copy its position indication to obtain an exact location. - Exact coordinates can also be obtained from the Internet. There are numerous sites which deal with navigation. Remember that strictly speaking the inf[...]

13 All the settings r equired for the weather station to operate normally have now been made. The expanded settings ar e not needed for normal operation. Press the "EXIT" key to leave configuration mode and return to normal mode. Press the "NEXT" key in or der to make expanded settings and to calibrate the rain sensor . Entering[...]

14 Assigning the indicator path (History display) The history of the air pressur e, the inside or the outside temperature can be illustrated in the display field of the graphic indicator path. If the indicator path is assigned to one of the two temperature displays, the additional symbol " " appears in the r elevant display field to r emi[...]

15 3.2. Operation Follow these instructions to operate the Professional W eather Station on a day to day basis. Selecting the indoor temperature display In normal mode the "INDOOR" display field shows the indoor temperature and indoor humidity . - By repeatedly pr essing the "IN" key , you can switch between displaying the indoo[...]

16 Calling up MIN/MAX values The minimum and maximum values reached for the indoor and outdoor temperatur e and indoor and outdoor humidity since the data were last deleted ar e saved. For the wind speed and rainfall measurement, only the MAX values ar e saved. For all figures, the date and time that the extr eme value occurred are also saved. The [...]

17 3.3. Additional functions Moon phase display The moon phase is displayed with the following symbols: Wiz Kid The Wiz Kid is an animated figure that indicates several weather factors at the same time: Outdoor temperature (combi-sensor only) - The clothing worn depends on the outdoor temperature on the combi-sensor . Rain - If the forecast functio[...]

18 Instant rain display - The onset of rain is reported to the base station in the next radio data transmis- sion and indicated by raindrops in the "RAIN" field and the Wiz Kid`s umbr ella being open. Comfort indicator - The comfort indicator ( ☺ ) illustrates the climatic conditions (i.e. the rela- tionship between temperature an[...]

19 5. T roubleshooting Possible faults that could impair the correct display of the transmitted readings are: No reception – The distance between transmitter and r eceiver is too great. Reduce the distance between the transmitter and the receiver . No reception – Dense shielding materials ar e positioned between the trans- mitter and the receiv[...]

20 6. Range The free field range, i.e. the range of the line of sight contact between the transmitter and the receiver is 300 ft. under optimum conditions. W alls and even reinfor ced concrete can be penetrated, which does, however , reduce the range. A r educed range can occur due to the following reasons: · High-frequency interfer ence of all ki[...]

21 - Clean residue from the collector funnel, contacts, counter r ocker and drain hole at the bottom of the housing. - Insert the counter rocker back into its bracket. The magnet of the counter rocker must be on the side next to the cable. - Insert the rainfall sensor into its bracket. It will automatically hold the counter rocker firmly . The cabl[...]

22 7.2. Calibrating the rain sensor The rainfall measuring system is delivered from the factory with high accuracy , so that normally no calibration is required. Calibration is only necessary when ver y high accuracy is required. Before beginning to calibrate the rainfall measur ement recorder , reset any total rainfall quantity that may be indicat[...]

24 44.6 ˚F) to say how comfortable one feels at certain temperatures and wind speeds whilst wearing appropriate clothing. These conditions ar e a temperature below 91.4 ° F and a wind speed higher than 9.4 mph. Wind chill is defined as the cooling effect of uncover ed skin at an assumed constant 91.4 ° F skin surface temperatur e. The higher the[...]

25 It can be seen from this that, depending on the ratio of temperatur e to humidity , there ar e clearly bounded areas, which ar e defined as a comfortable or an uncomfortable climate. Hence, one finds a humidity level of 30% at a temperatur e of 77 ° F , for example, to be too dry (e.g. heating air) and one above 60% to be sultry . 10. Intended [...]
