Weather history interval recording setting
The default weather history interval recording is 1 hour. To adjust the interval setting (interval
digit is flashing), using the ‘+’ or ‘–‘ keys select the interval time for data recording from 5 sec,
10 sec, 30 sec, 1 hr, 3 hrs, 6 hrs, 12 hrs, 24 hrs. Once the interval is set, press set key once
more to return to the normal operation mode.
The weather history feature will record 170 sets of information; after this capacity is reached the oldest data will be erased
as the new data is added. Please keep this in mind when setting the interval as setting it to the lowest interval (5 seconds)
will yield a history for just over 14 minutes while the highest interval (24 hours) will yield a history for just under sixth
months.
9. Placing and mounting the units:
Both the receiver and the sensor(s) can be placed onto any flat surface using the stand or wall mount bracket for the sensor
included in this pack (the wall mount bracket also doubles as a stand). The hanging hole is located at the back of the
receiver and for wall mounting. To wall mount the sensor, secure the wall bracket into place and clip the sensor onto the
bracket.
Before placing or mounting the units, check that the 433MHz signals from the sensor(s) and WWVB radio controlled time
signal can be received before drilling holes for permanent mounting. Should any of the signals not be received and
displayed on the receiver’s LCD, relocate the units. Once the signals are received, the units can be affixed permanently.
Do not affix the units in areas where direct sunlight or rain can damage the sensors causing inaccurate readings.
10. Changing batteries:
To change batteries, please follow the instructions in ‘Setting up’; ‘Activating the Receiver’ and ‘Activating the Sensor(s)’
and always use the correct size and recommended type.
If only the battery to a particular sensor is changed, then press and hold the channel key for approximately 4 seconds to
synchronize the receiver to the sensor again after changing the batteries otherwise no signal will be received from that
sensor. Doing this will synchronize the receiver to all the sensors again. The history data from sensor 1 (channel 1) will
remain in the receiver and once sensor 1 is synchronized again, the history will continue to be recorded at the same interval
time. However, if the batteries to the receiver are changed all weather history will be reset.
For optimum performance, batteries to all units should be changed at the same time.
Please participate in the preservation of the environment by properly disposing of used-up batteries at
designated disposal points. Never dispose of batteries in a fire as the may explode or give leakage of
dangerous chemicals or fumes
