Problem Remedy
The basis station will not adjust
totheDCFdataorcannotnd
the outdoor sensor.
• The DCF receiver is integrated into the temperature/humidity sensor. The time
and date from the DCF signal are transmitted to the basis station from the
outdoor sensor by radio signal.
If the outdoor sensor is too far away or the rechargeable batteries in the out-
doorsensorareweakorat,thebasisstationwillnolongerdisplaytheproper
time after the DCF signal either.
• Remove the batteries from the basis station and the rechargeable batteries
from the outdoor sensor. Cover the solar module. Wait for a few seconds. First
insert the batteries into the basis station.
When the basis station shows the measured data for indoor temperature/in-
door humidity after a few seconds, it will start the scan for the outdoor sensor.
Now insert the rechargeable batteries in the outdoor sensor (remove the cover
from the solar module again).
The LED (23) must light up for 6 seconds. If this is not the case, the recharge-
able batteries are discharged and must be charged for at least one day at full
sunlightintheoutdoorsensorrst.
Wait for 10 minutes. Do not push any button at the basis station. The sensor
scan would be interrupted at once.
• Set the time and date of the basis station manually if reception is bad. Switch
offDCFreceptionrst.
• Start registration ("REREGISTER TRANSMITTER"), see chapter 10. c). Then
brieypushthe"RESET"(29)buttonatthebottomofthesolarmodule.
Measured values deviate from
other devices
• You can set an offset to be added to or subtracted from the displayed values
("CALIBRATION SETTING"), see chapter 10. c).
The rain sensor shows wrong
data
• Check if any leaves or anything else has gotten into the funnel of the rain
sensor; remove them.
The weather forecast is not
right.
• The weather forecast is calculated based on the observations of the baromet-
ric pressure progress. Only an accuracy of about 70% can be reached here.
The wind direction is wrong • Check that the wind direction sensor is aligned north (see label "N" on the
wind direction sensor). A storm may have turned the outdoor sensor as well.
