6. Setting up the stations

Refer to the illustrations on pages 3 and 4 of this manual.
• Connect the lower pole [B] with the upper pole [A].
• Place the anemometer [D] on the top support [C] and fix with a bolt and nut.
• Place the wind vane [E] on the top support [C] and fix with a bolt and nut.
• Place the top support [C] on top of the upper pole [A] and fix with a bolt and nut.
• Mount a side support [F] on the pole [A+B] and place the rain sensor [G] on top. Secure it with a screw.
• Mount the second side support [F] on the pole [A+B].
• Place the solar panel [H] on top of the shelter [I] and secure it with a bolt and nut.
• Make all necessary connections:
Connect the anemometer [D] to the wind vane [E] phone jacket. Connect the wind vane [E] to the thermo-
hygrometer [J] WIND phone jacket (left). Connect the rain sensor to the thermo-hygrometer [J] RAIN
phone jacket (right).
• Insert 2 x AA rechargeable batteries (incl.) into the thermo-hygrometer [J] respecting the polarity as
indicated inside the casing. Only use rechargeable batteries!
• To ensure DCF reception, immediately insert 3 x AA batteries into the receiver respecting the polarity. Refer
to §8.1 Initialization for more information on DCF. Note that the receiver is located inside the thermo-
hygrometer
• Slide the thermo-hygrometer [J] into the shelter [I].
• Place the thermo-hygrometer [J] on top of the second side support [F] and secure it with a screw.
• It is strongly recommended to test the station before mounting it outdoors.
• Wait for the two stations to synchronize. This synchronisation may take a couple of minutes. Do not touch
any button during synchronisation. Once the synchronisation finishes, make sure that all components work
properly.
• Once testing is completed, you can mount the station on an outdoor pole (not incl.) using the included
clamps. Choose a suitable mounting location for the receiver. Commonly, the communication between the
two stations can reach a distance of 100m in the open field, provided that there are no obstacles such as
buildings, trees, vehicles, high-voltage lines, etc. Radio interference such as from PCs, radios and television
sets can entirely cut off the communication. Take this into consideration when choosing a mounting location.
Notes:
• On the edges of the wind direction sensor [E] the direction is indicated ("N" = north, "E" = east, "S" =
south and "W" = west). Make sure these inscriptions match the real wind direction. Use a compass (not
incl.) when installing the station to position the direction sensor correctly.
• Make sure the solar panel is facing the sun to keep the transmitter batteries sufficiently charged.
