3. Configuration et installation

Une installation correcte est essentielle pour des mesures précises. Suivez attentivement ces étapes.

3.1 Ensemble capteur extérieur

1. Installer les piles : Slide the switch to unlock the battery compartment on the outdoor sensor. Insert three AA batteries (not included) into the compartment. Close the compartment and slide the switch to lock.
2. Attach Mounting Pole: Insert the mounting pole into the base of the outdoor sensor and secure it with the provided screws using the screwdriver.
3. Install Wind Speed Cups: Align the screw holes in the wind speed cups with the flat, vertical side of the metal rod. Insert the wind speed cups onto the metal rod and screw on tight to lock it in place.
4. Installer une girouette : Similarly, align the screw holes in the wind direction vane with the flat, vertical side of the metal rod. Insert the wind direction vane onto the metal rod and screw on tight to lock it in place.
5. Remove Rain Gauge Sticker: Locate and remove the red sticker inside the rain gauge. This sticker protects the tipping bucket mechanism during transit.
6. Retirer le film du panneau solaire : Peel off the protective film covering the solar panel on the outdoor sensor.

For a visual guide on sensor assembly, refer to the video below:

3.2 Montage du capteur extérieur

Choose a location that allows for accurate readings and is free from obstructions. The sensor can be mounted on a pole, wall, or railing.

• Orientation: Ensure the rain collector faces North and the solar panel faces South for optimal performance. The southern hemisphere is in the opposite direction.
• Mise à niveau : Use the built-in bubble level on the sensor to ensure it is mounted horizontally. This is critical for accurate rainfall and wind direction measurements.
• Montage sécurisé : Use the provided mounting bracket and screws to securely attach the sensor to your chosen location.

For a visual guide on mounting, refer to the video below:

3.3 Configuration de l'unité d'affichage

1. Mise sous tension : Plug the power adapter into the weather station display unit.
2. Connexion du capteur : The display unit will automatically search for and connect to the wireless outdoor sensor. This may take a few minutes.
3. Atomic Clock Synchronization: After the RF connection is established (or within 5 minutes of pairing), the weather station will automatically receive the atomic clock signal. The RCC receiving dot icon will flash until synchronization is complete. Once successful, the time and date will be updated.

For a visual guide on display unit setup and initial connection, refer to the video below:

4. Mode d'emploi

The 7.5-inch color display provides a wealth of information and customizable settings.

4.1 Fonctions d'affichage

The display is divided into several sections, each showing specific weather data:

• Température et humidité extérieures : Current readings from the outdoor sensor.
• Direction et vitesse du vent : Données de vent en temps réel.
• Température et humidité intérieures : Readings from the display unit's internal sensors.
• Prévisions météorologiques: Icon-based forecast for the next 12-24 hours.
• Intensité lumineuse et indice UV : Measurements of ambient light and UV radiation.
• Heure Date: Synchronized via atomic clock.
• Précipitations : Current and historical rainfall data.
• Pression barométrique: Absolute and relative pressure readings.
• Phase de lune: Affiche la phase lunaire actuelle.

4.2 Réglages des paramètres

You can customize various settings on the display unit using the buttons located at the bottom.

• Atténuation: Adjust the display brightness to one of three levels (100%, 60%, 30%) for optimal viewdans différentes conditions d'éclairage.
• Unités: Change temperature units (°C/°F), pressure units (inHg/hPa), rainfall units (mm/in), and wind speed units (mph/km/h).
• Heure Date: Manually set or adjust time, date, and 12/24 hour format if atomic clock synchronization is not desired or available.
• Alarmes: Set alarms for high/low temperature, wind speed, or other parameters.

For a detailed guide on setting parameters, refer to the video below:

5. Entretien

Un entretien régulier garantit la longévité et la précision de votre station météorologique.

• Remplacement de la batterie : Replace the AA batteries in the outdoor sensor when the low battery indicator appears on the display unit.
• Rain Gauge Cleaning: Periodically check the rain gauge for debris (leaves, dirt) that might obstruct the tipping bucket mechanism. Clean as needed to ensure accurate rainfall measurements.
• Nettoyage général : Wipe down the outdoor sensor and display unit with a soft, damp Chiffon. Évitez les nettoyants abrasifs ou les solvants.
• Emplacement du capteur : Ensure the outdoor sensor remains horizontally level and free from obstructions. Check the bubble level periodically.

For visual guidance on battery replacement and rain gauge maintenance, refer to the videos in the Setup and Troubleshooting sections.

6. Dépannage

If you encounter issues with your weather station, refer to the common problems and solutions below.

1. Wireless sensor does not communicate with the weather station:
   • Ensure the outdoor sensor batteries are correctly installed and not depleted.
   • Place the weather station at least 3 ft (0.9 m) away from interference sources like electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.).
   • Check for any physical obstructions between the sensor and the display unit that might block the 433 MHz signal.

   Refer to Video 5 for troubleshooting steps related to wireless communication. (Relevant sections: 2:31-2:36)
2. Wind direction difference of 180°:
   • If the displayed wind direction is 180° from the actual direction given by the wind vane, adjust the Hemisphere setting in the Parameter Settings.

   Refer to Video 4 for instructions on adjusting the Hemisphere setting. (Relevant sections: 2:21-2:24)

3. Rain gauge does not record rainfall:
   • Check if the red sticker inside the rain gauge (covering the tipping bucket) has been removed.
   • Ensure the sensor is mounted horizontally using the bubble level. Tilting can affect the tipping bucket mechanism.
   • Verify that the funnel inside the rain gauge can be turned over smoothly. If not, remove and reinstall it.
   • Ensure the magnet inside the rain gauge is installed facing inward.

   Refer to Video 5 for troubleshooting steps related to rainfall recording. (Relevant sections: 2:40-3:01)

4. Incorrect wind speed:
   • If Average Wind Mode is selected, the display shows the average wind speed over a 20-second period. If Gust Mode is selected, it shows the maximum wind speed over a 20-second period.
   • The actual wind speed is the current wind speed, and the weather forecast is the area wind speed.
   • For maximum and average wind speed data over a longer period, connect to a weather website (not applicable for this non-WiFi model).

   Refer to Video 5 for more information on wind speed readings. (Relevant sections: 3:04-3:10)
5. Abnormal outdoor temperature and humidity:
   • Ensure the outdoor sensor is not exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which can cause elevated temperature readings.
   • Verify that the sensor is placed in a well-ventilated area, away from heat sources or reflective surfaces.

   Refer to Video 5 for troubleshooting steps related to temperature and humidity. (Relevant sections: 3:10-3:32)

6. Incorrectly measured data:
   • Ensure the sensor is mounted on a solid structure and the horizontal bubble is centered after installation. Inaccurate rainfall can occur if tilted.
   • Weather stations measure real-time weather data at the installation site, which is more accurate than general weather forecasts.
   • Due to signal filtering, it takes about an hour after switching on the sensor to get an accurate reading.
   • The product has been 100% tested and calibrated. The accuracy of the sensor is higher than common measuring instruments.
   • Indoor and outdoor environments are different, so the temperature readings will naturally differ.
   • A flashing LED on the sensor indicates it is transmitting data. Due to safety regulations, measurement data is transmitted once every 20 seconds.

   Refer to Video 5 for comprehensive details on data accuracy and transmission. (Relevant sections: 3:32-3:53)
