For more information about the software observe, e.g., its help function.
c) General Information
• For time information of the measured data in the basis station and PC to match, the time and date of the basis sta-
tion and PC must be adjusted to each other.
Usually, the basis station uses the precise DCF time and the PC the precise time of a time server online
(e.g. via the router). Adjustment usually is not required.
However, if you manually set the time/date of the basis station or PC, check and correct the settings before
connecting the basis station to the PC.
Otherwise, there may be contradictions between the display and the evaluation of the data.
• Before the memory display in the lower right of the basis station display shows 100%, copy the basis station data
onto a PC. Otherwise, the oldest measured data will be overwritten with new ones. When assessing the data on the
PC, there may be an incorrect display.
• In some PC systems, present programmes may cause an error during entry in the Windows registry when installing
the included software.
• In this case, proceed as follows:
1. Find the directory in which the programme "WeatherSmart.exe" is installed.
2. Generatealereg_graph.bat"withtheWindowstexteditor(notinWordorasimilarprogram).

5. Double-clickthele"reg_graph.bat"; thegraphicsdriverforthesoftwareshould nowbeintegratedintothe
Windows registry correctly.
