5. Inial use
Remove the product from its packaging and remove all packaging material. Open
the baery compartment of the outdoor sensor and insert 2x 1.5V AAA baeries.
You can use the 5V DC power adapter and connect it to the power connector of the
weather staon. Alternavely, open the baery compartment on the back of the
main unit and insert 3x 1.5V AAA baeries.
For technical data for polarity and plug type when using a separate power sup-
ply, please refer to the table on page 16. Plug the power supply into a properly
connected power outlet and connect it to the hollow plug connector on the back
of the main unit.
Note: If you want to use the device with baeries, then the backlight is not
permanently switched on. The backlight is permanently switched on when
operang with a power adapter.
The weather staon then aempts to establish connecon with the outdoor sen-
sor. Make sure that both the devices are with each other's range. The connecon
symbol " " ashes in the "Outdoor temperature display" of the main unit. If the
main unit cannot establish a connecon with the outdoor sensor within 3-4 minu-
tes, then it stops scanning.
If a connecon cannot be established, then this could be, for example, due to thick
walls, or to a long distance of the sensor from the main unit. In this case, posion
the sensor and the main unit closer to each other.
6. DCF signal
The DCF signal is a me signal which is sent out by one of the most accurate clocks
in the world. It is located near Frankfurt am Main. Under ideal condions, your
weather staon can receive the signal from a distance of up to 1500 km.
If the weather staon has detected the signal, then it shows the current Central
European Time, the date, and the day of the week depending on the basic sengs.
The DCF symbol " " is now shown on the display.
Once the aempt to receive a signal fails, the weather staon stops scanning aer
about 5 minutes. The DCF symbol disappears from the display.
