Installing The Weather Station - Perel WC224 Mode D'emploi

Resetting/Transmission LED
Reset the outdoor sensor in the unlikely event it is not transmitting.
1. With an open-ended paperclip, press and hold the reset button on the sensor for
three seconds to completely discharge its circuit.
2. Remove the batteries from the batter compartment and cover the solar panel.
Leave the sensor to rest for 5 minutes as this will drain the voltage.
3. Re-insert the batteries and re-synchronize with the console (see below).
5.2 Weather Station
Powering the Weather Station
The weather station requires three AAA/R03 batteries as back-up power in case of
power interruption. Open the battery compartment of the weather station. Insert the
batteries observing the correct polarity and re-insert the battery door.
Connect the weather station to the mains using the included power adapter or an exact
equivalent.

Installing the Weather Station

Install the weather station indoors in a dry and shady spot, away from direct sunlight or
rain.
5.3 Synchronizing the Sensor and Weather Station
Synchronizing the Sensor and Weather Station
Keep the outdoor sensor close to the weather station for 30 minutes. Spin the wind cups
to simulate wind, and hold the rain collector under a dripping tap to simulate rain.
Once the weather station is receiving data, follow the mounting instructions for the
outdoor sensor.
To Obtain the Best Wireless Communication
To ensure proper communication, mount the outdoor sensor in a vertical position.
Also, wireless communication is susceptible to interference, distance, walls and metal
barriers. Mind following points:
•
Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the weather station away from EMI, e.g.
computer monitors and TV sets.
•
Radio-Frequency Interference (RFI). Devices operating at a 433 MHz frequency will
affect the wireless communication between the outdoor sensor and the weather
station. You may need to relocate those devices to avoid interference.
•
Line of Sight Rating. This weather station is rated at 100 m line of sight. However,
you will typically get 30 m due to environmental barriers.
•
Metal Barriers. Keep in mind that radio waves will not pass through metal barriers
such as armoured concrete.
