1. Introduction

Thank you for purchasing this Professional Remote Weather

Station.

Designed for everyday use, the eather station ill prove to

be an asset of great value for your personal use in the home

or office.

Please read this instruction manual thoroughly to fully

understand the correct operation of your eather station and

benefit from its unique features.

2. Intended Use

Weather Station

The base station measures the indoor environment of its

surrounding area and receives eather data from the

follo ing three outdoor sensors:

1) Thermo-Hygro Sensor

2) Wind Sensor

3) Rain Sensor

The received data is continuously updated to bring you the

latest eather information on the base station’s LCD. The

outdoor thermo-hygro sensor is the main data communication

unit since both the ind and rain sensors are connected to the

thermo-hygro sensor for operating po er and rely on it to

communicate to the base station. Weather data sent from the

thermo-hygro sensor can be done by ireless 433MHz

transmission (up to 330ft in open space) or by cable

connection.

Using the enclosed 6.5ft computer cable and CD-ROM, you

can install the Heavy Weather soft are to your PC and

access the latest eather information from your PC and

upload up to 175 sets of recorded eather data received by

the base station. Recorded data can be used to generate

statistics and charts onto your spreadsheets (175 sets of data

is stored in the base even if the PC is s itched OFF). The

soft are itself does not set any limits as to ho many data

sets can be transferred to PC.

This eather station is designed to ork easily ith your PC,

simply connect and disconnect the PC cable at any time.

System Requirements for PC use:

The minimum system requirement for use of this “Heavy

Weather” soft are is:

Operating system: Windo s 98 or above

Processor: Pentium 166 MHz or above

RAM: 32MB of RAM or above

Hard disk: 20MB free space

CD-ROM drive

For full details on operation and installation of the “Heavy

Weather” soft are refer to the PC manual in PDF format on

the CD-ROM.

eatures of the base station:

• Receives and displays the WWVB radio controlled time

and date

• Display of extensive eather data, in all cases ith

programmable alarm functions for certain eather

conditions as ell as records of all minimum and

maximum values along ith time and date of their

recordings

• De point temperature display

• Weather forecast display by eather icons (sunny,

cloudy, rainy)

• Weather tendency indicator

• Storm arning alarm

• EL back light

• Simultaneous display of all eather data ith individual

settings by the user

• COM port for easy connection to your PC

• All the eather data from the base station and up to 175

sets of eather history data ith user adjustable

measuring intervals can be recorded and uploaded to

your PC

eatures of the Thermo-Hygro Sensor

The thermo-hygro sensor measures the outdoor temperature

and relative humidity. It also collects the readings from the

rain and ind sensors before transmitting the data to the base

station by ireless 433MHz or by the 32ft cable included in

this set.

eatures of Wind sensor

The ind sensor measures ind speed and ind direction and

sends the data to thermo-hygro sensor, hich in turn

transmits the data to the base station. Operating po er is

taken from the thermo-hygro sensor using a 32ft cable

connection.

eatures of Rain sensor

The rain sensor measures the rainfall and sends the data to

thermo-hygro sensor, hich in turn transmits the data to the

base station. Operating po er is taken from the thermo-hygro

sensor by a 32ft cable connection.

5. Setting up

First, choose to use the adaptor (included in this set) or

batteries for operation. Both these methods allo for

operation using ireless 433MHz transmission or cable

connection bet een the base station and the sensors and

setting up for both methods is as follo s:

Base Station:

Battery

compartment

PC COM

Port

Socket for sensor

DC 6.0V

socket

Setting up using batteries:

Important: To avoid operating problems, please take note

of battery polarity if inserting any batteries

1) Pull a ay the rain cover of the thermo-hygro sensor to

reveal the three sockets (for the ind sensor, rain sensor

and the base station)

2) Connect the attached cables of ind and rain sensors to

the corresponding sockets of the thermo-hygro sensor by

clicking them into place

3) Open the battery cover of the thermo-hygro sensor

located belo the three sockets and insert 2 x AA, IEC

LR6, 1.5V batteries and close the cover

4) Open the base station’s battery cover located at the back

of the unit and insert 3 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries into

the battery compartment and close the battery cover

Battery Cover

Compartment

Sensor sockets

Thermo-Hygro Sensor

sockets

Setting up using the AC adaptor:

1) Po er up all the sensors as described in setting up using

batteries above

2) Using the AC adaptor (included), plug it into the po er

outlet and po er up the base station by inserting the

adaptor jack into the DC 6.0V socket located on the side

of the base station

Every time the thermo-hygro sensor is po ered up (for

example after a change of batteries), a random security code

is transmitted and this code must be synchronized ith the

base station to receive eather data.

When the base station is po ered up, a short beep ill sound

and all LCD segments ill light up for about 5 seconds before

it enters into a 15 minute learning mode to learn the sensors

security code. After the learning mode (or by pressing the

MIN/MAX key at anytime), the base station ill start the

WWVB radio controlled time reception.

Note for WWVB Radio Controlled Time:

The time and date display is based on the signal provided by

the highly accurate government operated atomic clock in Ft.

Collins, Colorado. This radio-controlled clock does not only

provide the eather station’s time and date display but also

functions as the time and date source for all of this eather

station’s memory and history values using the time and date

information received from the atomic clock.

EL backlight:

When using the po er adapter or under battery operation, the

LCD backlight ill s itch on for 15 seconds hen any button

is pressed.

6. Operation using cable connection or wireless

433MHz

Cable Connection:

Using this method of operation ill provide interference free

transfer of the eather data from the sensors to the base

station. The data sending interval from the sensors to the

base station ill also be more frequent compared to using

433MHz transmission and ill result in higher po er

consumption. Batteries ill have a shorter life span for cable

connection compared to using 433MHz ireless transmission.

To operate using cable connection, simply use the enclosed

32ft cable and connect the thermo-hygro sensor to the base

station. Once the connection is detected, the base station ill

automatically continue reading the data from the sensor.

The user may at any time s itch from cable connection to

using 433MHz (or vice versa) by simply disconnecting (or

connecting) the cable from the base station to the sensor.

When the base station detects no cable connection to the

sensors, the base station ill automatically change to using

433 MHz for reception of the eather data from the sensors.

The data receiving intervals are as follo s:

- Using cable connection data is updated every 8

seconds.

- Using ireless 433 MHz data is updated from 16 to 128

second intervals depending on ind speed and rain

activity.

Using the AC adaptor to operate the base station ill also

supply po er to the sensor if the cable is connected to it.

Batteries used for 433MHz transmission may be left in the

sensor hen using cable connection for po er back up in

case of AC po er failure. A loss of po er ould

desynchronize the base station and the sensor and no

eather data ill be received. To synchronize the units so

that the eather data can be received, press and hold the

PLUS (+) key for 2 seconds. In general, batteries that ill not

be used for long periods should be removed to avoid leakage.

Wireless 433MHz transmission:

Using 433MHz ireless transmission of eather data from the

sensor to the base station ill provide users greater freedom

as to here units can be positioned ithout the need to be

restricted by cable.

Note:

If no outdoor eather data is displayed or the signal to the

sensors is lost during setting up, mounting, changing of

batteries to the sensor or plugging or unplugging cables,
