8. Commissioning
Operation of the basis station and outdoor sensors with rechargeable bat-
teries is possible. However, the lower voltage (battery = 1.5 V, rechargeable
battery = 1.2 V) causes the operating duration and display contrast to reduce.
Since batteries are very sensitive to cold, the operating duration of the out-
door sensors continues to drop in winter.
We therefore recommend operating the basis station and the outdoor sensors
with high-quality alkaline batteries to warrant long and secure function.
a) Set transmission channels and temperature unit of the outdoor
sensors
• Open the battery compartment on the back of all outdoor sensors. For this, turn the
attachment screw of the battery compartment lid out and then take off the battery
compartment lid.
• The four DIP switches can now be used to set the transmission channel (1....8) and
the temperature unit (°C or °F) for the display shown on the outdoor sensor.
Set each outdoor sensor to another channel. Never use one setting for more
than one outdoor sensor, since this may cause interferences with the recep-
tion by the basis station.
The setting of the transmission channel and temperature unit must be per-
formed before inserting the batteries!
