ACCENT – Wireless weather station
7. Weather forecast symbols
• There are 5 different weather symbols (sunny, slightly cloudy, cloudy, rainy, snow).
• The icons displayed forecasts the weather in terms of getting better or worse and
not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For example, if the current
weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the pro-
duct is faulty because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has
dropped and the weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy.
8. Trend pointer
• The trend pointer displayed on the LCD indicates if the pressure is increasing, steady
or decreasing.
9. Positioning of display unit and the transmitter
• 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. Avoid the vicinity of any interfering field like computer monitors
or TV sets and solid metal objects.
• Choose a shady and dry position for the transmitter. (Direct sunshine falsifies the
measurement and continuous humidity strains the electronic components need-
lessly).
• Check the transmission of 433 MHz signal from the transmitter to the display unit
(transmission range 30 m free field). Within ferro-concrete rooms (basements,
superstructures), the received signal is naturally weakened.
• If necessary choose another position for transmitter and/or display unit.
• To wall mount the transmitter, use a nail to affix the wall bracket to the desired
wall, plug in the remote sensor to the bracket.
10. Battery replacement
• Change the batteries in both instruments (station and transmitter see 3.1) when
the battery symbol of the station or the transmitter appears on the display.
