Inserting The Batteries; Replacing The Batteries; Measuring Station; Base Station - Hama EWS-380 Instrucciones De Uso

4. Getting started
Note
Before use, ensure you insert the batteries in
the measuring station first and then in the base
station.

4.1 Inserting the batteries

Base station

• Open the battery compartment (18) and remove the contact
breaker. Close the battery compartment.

4.2. Replacing the batteries

Measuring station

• Open the battery compartment (28), remove and properly
dispose of the dead batteries and insert two new AA batteries
with the correct polarity. Replace the battery compartment cover.
Base station
• Open the battery compartment (18), remove and properly
dispose of the dead batteries and insert two new AAA batteries
with the correct polarity. Replace the battery compartment cover.
5. Installation
Note
• We recommend initially placing the base and measuring
stations in the intended locations without installing them and
making all the settings described in 6. Operation – to do.
• Only install the stations once the appropriate settings have
been made and a stable wireless connection is established.
Note
• The wireless transmission range between the measuring and
base stations is up to 30 m in open spaces.
• Before installation, ensure that wireless transmission will not
be disrupted by interference or obstacles like buildings, trees,
vehicles, high-voltage lines, etc.
• Before the final installation, ensure that there is sufficient
reception between the intended installation locations.
• When installing the measuring station, ensure that it is
protected from direct sunlight and rain.
• The international standard height for measuring air
temperature is 1.25 m (4 ft) above ground.
Warning
• Buy special or suitable installation material from a specialised
dealer for wall-mounting.
• Ensure that no faulty or damaged parts are installed.
• Never apply force during installation. This could damage the
product.
• Before installation, ensure that the chosen wall is suitable for the
weight to be mounted, and make sure that there are no electrical
wires, water, gas or other lines at the installation site on the wall.
5.1. Base station
• Use the base to position the base station on a level surface (25).
• Alternatively, you can install the base station on a wall using the
opening (17) on the back.
5.2. Measuring station
• You can also position the measuring station on a level outdoor
surface.
• We recommend installing the measuring station securely on an
outdoor wall using the opening.
• Install an anchor, screw, nail, etc. in the wall of your choice.
• Hang the measuring station using the opening intended for this
purpose (17/26).
6. Operation
6.1. Setting up the barometer
• The unit for measuring atmospheric pressure blinks in the display
after the batteries are inserted. In this time, use the arrow buttons
in the battery compartment (18/28) to switch to the required unit.
Confirm your selection by pressing the Unit button (23).
• After that, the unit for the altimeter flashes. Once again, use the
arrow buttons in the battery compartment (18/28) to switch to the
required unit. Confirm your selection by pressing the Unit key (23).
• You can now use the arrow buttons in the battery compartment
(18/28) to change the altitude above sea level (preset to 10
m/32 feet) to the actual altitude of your current location. Press
the Pressure/Altitude button (24) to confirm your selection. The
factory settings are retained if you do not make an entry within
60 seconds.

6.2. Connecting to the measuring station
• After you have inserted the batteries, the base station
automatically searches for a connection to the measuring station
and begins to transmit the measured temperature and humidity.
Note
• The measured values are automatically updated by the base
device roughly every 45 seconds.
• The base device begins to receive radio signals roughly 2 min
after the batteries are inserted.
