3. Product Overview
The EMOS E6016 Weather Station consists of a main display unit and two wireless outdoor sensors: an anemometer for wind speed and direction, and a rain gauge for precipitation measurement. The main unit features a color touchscreen display for easy interaction and clear data visualization.
3.1 Main Display Unit
The main unit displays various weather parameters, including indoor/outdoor temperature and humidity, wind speed and direction, rainfall, atmospheric pressure, weather forecast, time, date, and moon phases. Its intuitive touchscreen allows for easy navigation and setting adjustments.

3.2 Outdoor Sensors
The outdoor sensor array includes an anemometer for measuring wind speed and direction, and a rain gauge for measuring precipitation. These sensors transmit data wirelessly to the main unit via 433 MHz frequency, with a range of up to 100 meters in open areas.

4. Setup
Follow these steps to set up your EMOS Professional Wireless Weather Station:
4.1 Battery Installation
- Outdoor Sensors: Install 4x AA batteries (not included) into the outdoor wind and rain sensors. Ensure correct polarity. Close the battery compartments securely to maintain weather resistance.
- Main Unit: Install 3x AAA batteries (not included) into the main display unit. These batteries serve as a backup power source.

4.2 Powering the Main Unit
Connect the provided power adapter to the main display unit and plug it into a standard electrical outlet. The display will power on and begin initialization.
4.3 Sensor Placement
- Wind Sensor: Mount the anemometer in an open area, away from obstructions like buildings or trees, to ensure accurate wind speed and direction readings.
- Rain Gauge: Place the rain gauge on a level surface in an open area, ensuring no overhead obstructions can interfere with rainfall collection.
- Ensure both sensors are within the 100-meter wireless transmission range of the main unit.
4.4 Sensor Pairing
Once batteries are installed and the main unit is powered, the main unit will automatically search for and connect to the outdoor sensors. This process may take a few minutes. Ensure sensors are placed correctly and within range for successful pairing.
5. Operating Instructions
The EMOS E6016 features an intuitive color touchscreen for easy operation. Here are the basic functions:
5.1 Display Navigation
Tap the screen to access different menus or cycle through display modes. Specific touch zones or buttons on the display allow for setting adjustments, viewing historical data, or changing units.

5.2 Time and Date Settings
The integrated DCF radio clock automatically synchronizes the time and date, ensuring accuracy. If manual adjustment is needed, refer to the on-screen menu options for time zone and date format settings.
5.3 Weather Forecast
The station provides a weather forecast based on atmospheric pressure trends. The forecast icons (e.g., sunny, cloudy, rainy) are displayed prominently on the screen.
5.4 Alarms and Alerts
Set customizable alarms for various weather parameters, such as high/low temperature alerts. The station also features a reliable alarm clock function for daily use.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the accuracy and longevity of your weather station.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the main unit with a soft, dry cloth. For outdoor sensors, gently remove any debris (leaves, dirt) from the anemometer cups and rain gauge funnel. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries in both the main unit and outdoor sensors when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Use fresh, high-quality batteries.
- Sensor Calibration: While the sensors are factory-calibrated, ensure they are mounted correctly and free from obstructions for optimal performance.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your weather station, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No display on main unit. | Power adapter disconnected; dead backup batteries. | Ensure power adapter is securely connected. Replace AAA backup batteries. |
| No outdoor sensor data. | Dead sensor batteries; sensors out of range; interference. | Replace AA batteries in sensors. Relocate sensors closer to the main unit. Check for strong interference sources. |
| Inaccurate temperature/humidity. | Sensors exposed to direct sunlight or heat sources; poor ventilation. | Relocate outdoor sensors to a shaded, well-ventilated area. Ensure indoor unit is not near heat/cold sources. |
| Incorrect wind speed/direction. | Anemometer obstructed; not mounted level. | Ensure anemometer is free from obstructions and mounted on a level surface. |
| Rainfall not registering. | Rain gauge obstructed; debris in funnel. | Clear any obstructions or debris from the rain gauge funnel. Ensure it is level. |
