Mounting - TFA STRATOS Mode D'emploi

STRATOS –
Please take note of the following:
• The radio controlled time receiver is built inside the thermo-hygro-sensor. It is
recommended to keep distance to any interfering sources and ferro-concrete
buildings.
• During night-time, the atmospheric disturbances are usually less severe and
reception is possible in most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep
the accuracy deviation below 1 second.
• If the reception is not successful, the DCF reception symbol disappears, but the
DCF time reception will be repeated again. The manually set time will be over-
written by the DCF time when the signal is received successfully.

3.2 Mounting

• Before installing the sensors and the base station at their final destination
please check if the data transmission is continuously possible (transmission
range max. 100 m free field, within ferro-concrete rooms the received signal is
naturally weakened). If necessary chose another position for transmitter and /
or display unit.
1) Base station
With the foldable leg at the back of the unit, the base station can be placed
onto any flat surface or wall mounted at the desired location by the hanging
hole at the back of the unit.
2) Remote sensor
For accurate results, the remote sensor mast should be securely mounted onto a
horizontal surface and in an open area away from trees or other coverings
where rainfall or wind speed may be reduced causing inaccurate reading.
a.) Mounting the wind sensor
Assemble the mast. Firstly, check that the wind-fan can rotate freely before
fixing the unit. The wind sensor should now be mounted using the screw onto a
mast provided to allow the wind to travel around the sensor unhindered from
all directions.

b.) Mounting the rain sensor
c.) Mounting the thermo-hygro sensor same as rain sensor
d.) Fix the whole set to a pole with the two adjustable hoops.
Once the wind sensor and
rain sensor are fixed onto
the mast, connect the cable
to the corresponding ther-
mo-hygro sensor socket.
