ready for operation and the control LED lights up briefly. • Close the battery cover.
Installing the Outdoor Sensor: Note: You will need an electric drill for this step.
• Find an appropriate place for the outdoor sensor. Note: Please ensure that you install the
outdoor sensor within a radius of 60m from the weather station. Check that there are no
obstacles between the outdoor sensor and the weather station. Otherwise there may be
interference of the transmission of data. For wall mounting: Hang the outdoor sensor with
the mount on one screw.
Preparing the weather station for use:
Removing the battery safety strip: • Open the battery compartment on the back of the
weather station. • Pull out the battery safety strip. • Then close the battery compartment.
As soon as the battery safety strip has been removed, the weather station starts toreceive
the radio signal. Note: Do not move the weather station while it is receiving the signal. This
may disrupt reception.
Connecting with outdoor sensor and the DCF radio signal:
After removal of the battery safety strip the weather station attempts to establish a
connection with the outdoor sensor. This process can take a few minutes. The symbol will
keep flashing for few minutes. On successful connection with the outdoor sensor, the
selected channel symbol appears in the LCD display with the channel of the outdoor
sensor (if necessary you can change the channel of the outdoor sensor as shown in the
section "Setting the channel"). If the connection with the outdoor sensor is not established
automatically, this can be done manually as follows:
Press the "CH" button. The icon of the selected channel will flash in the LCD-display.
Outdoor temperature and Humility (Outdoor) will display "--", weather station will start
receive the outdoor sensor signal process. Then press the "TX" button of the sensor.
Weather station outdoor temperature and Humility will display exiting value. As soon as the
weather station has established a connection with the outdoor sensor it automatically
begins to receive the DCF radio signal. This process takes several minutes and is indicated
in the LCD display by a flashing radio tower symbol. When the DCF radio signal is being
successfully received, the radio tower symbol is shown permanently in the display. If at the
time of putting the device into operation it is not possible to synchronize with the atomic
clock, you can also carry out the clock adjustments manually ("Setting the 12-hour/24-
hour mode /°C /°F/ hPa/ inHg/time zone /time/date/language manually").
Radio signal (DCF): The DCF signal (time signal transmitter) consists of time pulses
emitted by one of the most accurate clocks in the world close to Frankfurt /Main, Germany.
In ideal conditions, your weather station can pick up this signal over a distance of up to
approx. 2000 km around Frankfurt / Main. Reception of the radio signal generally takes
approx. 3–10 minutes. Reception can be considerably impaired by obstacles (e.g. concrete
walls) or sources of interference (e.g. other electrical devices). In the event of reception
problems, change the position of the weather station (e.g. to somewhere near a window).
Operation: Receiving the DCF radio time signal: After a connection with the outdoor sensor
is established or 3 minutes after the battery safety strip is removed, the weather station

automatically begins to search for the DCF radio signal. The search is shown in the LC
display by the radio tower symbol flashing. Note: In buildings made of reinforced concrete
the reception of the radio signal may be severely impaired (see "Setting up the devices").
In order to correct any deviations from the exact time, the clock is automatically
synchronized with the DCF radio signal every day at 1:00, 2:00 and 3:00.
Reception of the DCF radio signal can also be started manually on the weather station.
• Press the "UP" and "DOWN" button at the same time. The weather station attempts to
receive the DCF radio signal. This process takes several minutes and is indicated in the
LCD display by a flashing radio tower symbol.
If the connection with the DCF radio signal cannot be established, the search is stopped.
Note: If the clock of the weather station cannot receive the DCF radio signal due to errors,
too great a distance from the transmitter or similar reasons, it is possible to set the time
manually. If reception of the DCF signal is successful, the manual settings are overwritten.
Setting the 12-hour/ 24-hour mode/°C /°F/hPa / inHg/ time zone/ time/date /language
manually. The reception of DCF radio signal where the weather station has been positioned
may become degraded or interrupted. If this happens you can set the device manually.
Follow these steps:
1. Press and hold down the "MODE" button for about 3 seconds. "12Hr" or "24Hr" blinks in
the display. Press the "UP" or "DOWN" button to choose the desired hour format.
Note: The AM symbol in the time display stands for before noon in the 12-hour mode. The
PM symbol in the time display stands for after noon in 12-hour mode.
2. Confirm your setting by pressing the "MODE" button. The temperature unit "°C" or "°F"
flashes in the display. Press the UP or DOWN button to choose the desired temp. unit.
3. Confirm your setting by pressing the "MODE" button. The barometric pressure's unit
flashes in the display. Press the "UP" or "DOWN" button to set the desired unit (hPa/inHg).
4. Confirm your setting by pressing the "MODE" button. The time zone indicator flashes in
the display. Press the "UP" or "DOWN" button to set the desired value (-2 to +2).
Note: Should you be in a country in which the DCF signal can be received but the time is
different to your current local time, you can use the time zone setting to have the product
display your current local time. If you find yourself in a country in which, for example, the
local time is an hour ahead of Central European Time (CET), you set the time zone to +01.
The product is now still controlled by DCF but shows the time as one hour ahead of CET.
5. Confirm your setting by pressing the "MODE" button. The hour value of the time displays
flashes. Press the "UP" or "DOWN" button to set the desired value. Note: The time and date
settings will be done automatically if the weather station receives the DCF signal. You
should manually adjust the time and date if you have no reception of DCF.
Tip: Hold the "UP" or "DOWN" button pressed down. This will speed up the process of
setting the values. You can also use this fast setting option for subsequent settings. If you
do not press any button for 20 sec, the LCD automatically reverts to the standard display.
6. Confirm your setting by pressing the "MODE" button. The minute indicator of the time
display blinks. Press the "UP" or "DOWN" button to set the desired value.
