5.
Insert the batteries in the second transmitter as soon as the outdoor
temperature and humidity readings from the first transmitter are displayed
on the weather station.
Note : User shall insert the batteries into the second transmitter within 45
seconds after the weather station displays the information of the first
transmitter.
6.
The outdoor temperature and humidity from the second transmitter and the
"channel 2" icon should then be displayed on the weather station. If this
does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed
from all the units and reset from step 1.
7.
Insert the batteries in the third transmitter as soon as the "channel 2" icon
and outdoor data are displayed on the weather station. Then within 2
minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third transmitter will be
displayed and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the third
transmitter is successfully received. If this is not happen, user shall restart
the setting up from step 1.
Note : User shall insert the batteries into the third transmitter within 45
seconds after the Weather Station displays the information of the first
transmitter. Or immediately after reception of the second transmitter is
finished.
8.
In order to ensure sufficient 868 MHz transmission however, the distance
between the weather station and the transmitter should not be more than
100 meters (see notes on "Positioning" and "868 MHz Reception").
IMPORTANT:
Transmission problems will arise if the setting for additional sensors is not
followed as described above. Should transmission problems occur, it is
necessary to remove the batteries from all units and start again the set-up from
step 1.
DCF RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The time base for the radio controlled time is a Cesium Atomic Clock operated by
the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig which has a time
deviation of less than one second in one million years. The time is coded and
transmitted from Mainflingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal DCF-77 (77.5
kHz) and has a transmitting range of approximately 1,500 km. Your radio-
controlled weather station receives this signal and converts it to show the precise
time in summer or wintertime.
The quality of the reception depends greatly on the geographic location. In
normal cases, there should be no reception problems within a 1500km radius of
Frankfurt.
DCF reception is done twice daily at 02:00 and 03:00 am. If the reception is not
successful at 03:00 am, then the next reception takes place the next hour and so
on until 06:00am, or until the reception is successful. If the reception is not
