INTRODUCTION C ongratulations on purchasing this state-of-the-art weather station. Featuring time, date, calendar, weather forecast, wind gust and wind speed, indoor/outdoor temperature and outdoor humidity, air pressure and rainfall (optional), this weather station will provide you with various weather information and weather forecasts.
INVENTORY OF CONTENTS Carefully open the package and check that the following contents are complete: Wind Sensor Rain Sensor ThermoHygro Sensor Wireless Display USB Transceiver x x x x x x Mast holder x Right angle adaptor 1 x U-bolts 2 Washers + 2 Nuts Plastic Reset Rod Base sensor, funnel top cover and battery cover (preassembled) x x x x Wind Sensor also Protected under U.S.
FEATURES: WIRELES DISPLAY x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x Time display in 12/24 hour time format Automatic time and date (PC time) update from USB transceiver if connected x Calendar display (date, month, year) x Weather forecast with 3 weather icons (sunny, cloudy, and rainy) with weather tendency indicator Temperature display in °F/°C: from-39.8°F to 139.8°F Humidity display in RH%: from 1% to 99% Dew point display in °F/°C: from-39.8°F to 139.8°F Wind chill display in °F / °C: down to -39.
RAIN SENSOR x x Self-emptying bucket Transmission range: over 200 feet (Open field, free of obstructions) SETTING UP: IMPORTANT: Make sure to observe the correct polarity when inserting batteries. The "+" markings on the batteries must line up with the diagrams inside the battery compartments. Inserting the batteries incorrectly may result in permanent damage to the units.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that all of the sensor data can be received at the intended mounting locations before you drill mounting holes. The outdoor sensors have a wireless range of 200 feet. Keep in mind that the 200 foot range equates to an open air scenario with no obstructions. Each obstruction (roof, walls, floors, ceilings, etc.) will reduce the range.
The wind sensor must be installed with the front of the sensor (the solar panel) facing true South, or the reported wind direction will not be accurate. Mount within the 200 foot wireless range of the thermo-hygro sensor and on the same side of the house. The roof may or may not be an ideal mounting location. Secure the main unit to the shaft of the mast holder. Use the right-angle adaptor if the wind sensor will be mounted on a horizontal mast or surface.

The temperature unit is flashing 2. Press the ŸUP ARROW key or źDOWN ARROW key to toggle between “°F” or “°C”. 3.
The relative air pressure can be set as inHg or hPa. The default unit is inHg. 1. Press the ŸUP ARROW key or źDOWN ARROW key to toggle between the unit “inHg" or “hPa” 2. Press the SET key to confirm and to enter the RELATIVE PRESSURE REFERENCE VALUE SETTING. RELATIVE PRESSURE REFERENCE VALUE SETTING Note: The default reference pressure-value of the barometer is 29.91inHg when batteries are first inserted.
WEATHER TENDENCY SENSITIVITY LEVEL SETTING Set the switching sensitivity value, .06, .09, or .12 inHg (2,3 or4 hPa) for the change in the display of weather icons. This represents the "sensitivity" of the weather forecast (the smaller the value selected, the more sensitive the weather forecast). The default value is 0.09 inHg. Select lower numbers for high humidity areas, i.e. Oceanside. Select high numbers for arid areas, i.e. desert. 1. The sensitivity value will start flashing 2.
Note: If a storm warning alarm is activated, the downward weather tendency arrow will be flashing. (See WEATHER TENDENCY INDICATOR below) WIND DIRECTION DISPLAY TYPE SETTING The wind direction can be displayed using either compass directions or degree measurements (default setting is compass directions). 1. The wind direction will start flashing. 2. Press the ŸUP ARROW key or źDOWN ARROW key to toggle from compass directions to degree measurements. 3.
from "127" When the timer displays "dOnE", you must remove the batteries from the display for 10 minutes. While the batteries are out of the display, also remove the batteries from the thermo-hygro sensor. 4. After waiting for 10 minutes, insert the batteries into the thermo-hygro sensor, making sure to align the "+" symbol on the batteries with the markings on the battery cover and inside the battery compartment. 5.

Sunny Cloudy with sunny intervals Rainy For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. (Every time a new average pressure value has been obtained (once per minute), this value is compared with an internal reference value. If the difference between these values is bigger than the selected weather tendency sensitivity, the weather-icon changes, either for worse or for better.
If the Weather Center is moved to another location significantly higher or lower than its initial standing point (for example from the ground floor to the upper floors of a house), discard the weather forecast for the next 48-60 hours, as the Weather Center may mistake the new location as being a possible change in air-pressure when really it is due to the slight change of altitude.
The bars are plotted at each of the seven steps and give the trend over the recorded period. The scale on the right compares the result. The "0" in the middle of this scale determines the current air pressure. The vertical axis represents the air pressure changes in inHg (+0.12, +0.06, 0, -0.06, 0.12. The “0” represents the current air pressure). The newly measured pressure was compared to the previously recorded pressure reading.
To view the 24-hour rainfall or the Total rainfall reading: 1. Press źDOWN ARROW key consecutively to toggle between the 1 hour, 24-hour, week, month and total rainfall reading. VIEWING THE MIN/MAX WEATHER DATA The weather station will record the maximum and minimum value of the various weather data with time and date of recording automatically. The following stored maximum and minimum weather data can be viewed by pressing the MIN/MAX key in normal display mode. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
