Starting up the Main Console Unit
Once the console unit is properly powered, the display will start showing some data and weather
parameters. Wait for a few minutes for the console to finish self-calibration and for the sensor
readings to show up.
If “---” is still displayed for the sensor reading(s), check the wireless transmission path and the
batteries for the corresponding sensor.
Setting up the Main Console Unit
1. Open the latch at the back of the main console unit.
2. Insert 4 x UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V batteries according to the polarities shown.
3. Reattach the latch.
4. If placing the console unit on a table or horizontal surface mount the enclosed table stand.
5. If mounting the console unit on a wall or vertical surface, use the fitting provided.
Placement tips:
Make sure that the console unit is within receiving range of all remote sensors. Ideally
sensors should be within the line of sight of the console unit. Transmission range may be affected by
trees, metal structures and electronic appliances. Test reception before permanently mounting your
weather station.
The console unit measures indoor temperature, humidity, pressure and receives signals from all
remote sensors and radio-clock broadcasts. Avoid placing the console unit in the following areas:
- Direct sunlight and surfaces which radiate and emit heat.
- Near heating and ventilation devices, such as heating ducts or air conditioners.
- Areas with interference from wireless devices (such as cordless phones, radio headsets, baby
listening devices) and electronic appliances.
