4. Upon completion the display will be returned to the rainfall alert display.
Disabling when Daily Rainfall Alert is Activated
To Disable Rainfall Alert:
Press ALARM/CHART to disable the alert.
Wind Mode
The wind direction is shown by an animated compass display. Its angle can be displayed as compass
points (i.e. NW) or in bearings from the north (i.e. 22.5°).
The upper left of the wind display can be set to indicate the temperature at the anemometer or the
temperature adjusted with a wind chill factor.
The lower left of the wind display indicates the average wind speed for the last 10 minutes, as well
as gust, wind speed alert and gust alert information. It can also show records of the maximum values
of wind speed and gust attained for the current day.
The wind speed and gust alert functions can be programmed to sound if the wind speed or gust
exceeds a pre-configured limit. The wind speed may be displayed in km/h, mph, m/s or knots.
Note: The wind speed alert has a 5 mph hysteresis and the wind gust speed alert has a 7 mph
hysteresis. The hysteresis is to prevent the alerts from sounding constantly due to small fluctuations
near the alert value. This means that after the wind speed reaches the alert value, it will have to fall
below the alert value plus the hysteresis to deactivate the alert.
Accessing Wind Mode
From the main console unit: Press the button [
] or [ ] until the WIND icon on the
display starts flashing.
Configuring Wind Display
In Wind Mode, each press of SET rotates display between:
- Temperature with wind chill, wind direction in bearings
- Temperature with wind chill, wind direction in compass points
- Temperature at anemometer, wind direction in compass points
- Temperature at anemometer, wind direction in bearings
Setting Units for Wind Speed Display (km/h , mph, m/s or knots)
In Wind Mode, press and hold SET to convert wind speed units between km/h, mph, m/s or knots.
Viewing Wind Statistics
In Wind Mode, each press of MEMORY rotates wind speed display between:
- Current wind speed
- Daily maximum wind speed (“DAILY MAX” is displayed)
- Gust speed (“GUST” is displayed)
- Daily maximum gust speed (“GUST DAILY MAX” is displayed)
Resetting the Wind Statistics Memory
In Wind Mode, press and hold MEMORY to reset all wind statistics.
Activating/Deactivating Wind Alerts
1. In Wind Mode, each press of ALARM/CHART rotates wind speed display between:
- Current wind speed
- Wind speed alert (“ALARM HI” displayed)
- Gust alert (“GUST ALARM HI” displayed)
If the alert is deactivated, “OFF” will be shown, otherwise the alert value is shown.
2. When a wind alert is displayed, pressing the button [
] or [ ] will activate/deactivate it.
Setting up the Wind Alerts
1. In Wind Mode, press ALARM/CHART to select alarm which you wish to configure.
2. Press and hold ALARM/CHART until alert and corresponding icon starts flashing in the display.
3. Set Value for Alert:
Press the button [
] or [ ] to adjust value. Press and hold either button for fast advance.
Press ALARM/CHART to confirm your selection.
4. Upon completion the display will be returned to the wind alert selection screen.
Disabling when Wind Alert is Activated
To Disable Wind Alert:
Press ALARM/CHART to disable the alert.
Maintenance
Changing Batteries
The battery statuses of the sensors are checked every hour. If the low battery indicators light up,
replace the batteries for the corresponding unit immediately.
Changing Batteries for the Main Console Unit
1. To avoid losing data and records, connect the AC/DC adaptor to the main unit first.
2. Remove the latch at the back and replace all batteries. Do not mix old and new batteries.
3. Replace the cover.
Changing Batteries for the Remote Sensors
1. Replace the batteries following the setup instructions for the corresponding sensor.
2. When the batteries are properly installed, the sensor will resume sending signals to the main
console unit.
To enforce a search immediately for all remote signals, press and hold the button [ ] on the
main console unit.
Cleaning
The main console unit and outer casings for the remote sensors can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Small parts can be cleaned with a cotton tip or pipe-cleaner.
Never use any abrasive cleaning agents and solvents. Do not immerse any units with electronic parts
in water or under running water.
Anemometer
- Check that the wind vane and wind cups can spin freely and are free from dirt, debris or spider webs.
Rain Sensor
Like all rain gauges, the rain sensor is prone to blockages due to its funnel shape. Checking and
cleaning the rain sensor from time to time will maintain the accuracy of rain measurements.
- Detach the protective screen and lid. Remove any dirt, leaves or debris by cleaning the items with
soapy water and a damp cloth. Clean small holes and parts with a cotton tips or pipe-cleaner.
- Look out for spiders or insects that might have crawled into the funnel.
- Also clean the swinging mechanism with a damp cloth.
Troubleshooting
“The display shows dashes “ ---” for weather parameter(s)”
The display will show “---” when the wireless link is lost with the remote sensor for the following
periods:
Thermo-hygro Sensor – 15 minutes
Anemometer (Wind Sensor) – 15 minutes
Rain Sensor – 30 minutes
Check or replace the batteries for the corresponding sensor. Then press and hold the button [
] to
enforce a search for all remote signals.
If the above does not solve the problem, check the wireless transmission path from the
corresponding sensor to the main console unit and change their locations if necessary.
Although wireless signals can pass through solid objects and walls, the sensor should ideally be
within the line of sight of the console unit.
The following may be the cause of reception problems:
- Distance between remote sensor and main console unit too long.
- Signal shielding materials such as metal surfaces, concrete walls or dense vegetation in the path
of transmission.
- Interferences from wireless devices (such as cordless phones, radio headsets, baby listening
devices) and electronic appliances.
“The weather readings do not correlate with measurements from TV, radio or official weather
reports.”
Weather data can vary considerably due to different environmental conditions and placement of
weather sensors.
Check the placement tips included in this manual to site your sensors in the best possible way.
“The weather forecast is inaccurate.”
The weather forecast is a prediction of weather after 12-24 hours, and may not reflect current
weather conditions.
