the benefits of accurate weather readings and the precise radio controlled time information that our
instruments offer.
This manual will guide you step-by-step through setting up your WH1080PC device. Use this manual to
become familiar with your professional weather station, and save it for future reference.
Glossary of Common Terms
DCF/WWVB
The DCF or WWVB time signal is an AM modulated time-of-day signal broadcasted by the Federal
Government of Germany or NIST from USA. The time base is generated from an atomic time generator which
is accurate to 10 billions of one second.
LCD
“LCD” is an acronym for ”Liquid Crystal Display”. This is a common type of display screen used in
televisions, computers, watches, and digital clocks.
BAROMETER & BAROMETRIC PRESSURE
A barometer is a device that measures the pressure of the air pushing on it—this measurement is called the
barometric pressure. We don’t actually feel the barometric pressure because the air pressure is pushing
equally in every direction.
RELATIVE AIR PRESSURE
Relative air pressure is the same as the barometric pressure. The calculation of relative air pressure is a
combination of the absolute air pressure and the altitude.
ABSOLUTE AIR PRESSURE
Absolute air pressure is the actual air pressure on the barometer without regard to altitude.
INCHES OF MERCURY (inHg)
Inches of Mercury is the common unit of measurement for air pressure in the United States.
HECTOPASCALS (hPa)
Hectopascals are the common units of measurement for air pressure in the International System (SI) of
measurement. The hectopascal holds the same value
Important Note:
Before inserting batteries, please carefully read the operation manual.
The touch screen weather station WH1080PC includes a base station(receiver), a transmitter unit, one wind
direction sensor, one wind speed sensor, one rain gauge, USB cable and a PC software package on
CD-ROM.
The Base Station is equipped with a Touch Screen LCD Monitor and allows the display of a large variety of
time and weather data.
Left Top LCD: IN-OUT temperature and humidity
Right Top LCD: Wind and Rain measurement
Left Middle LCD: Weather Forecast(Tendency)
Right Middle LCD: Air Pressure and Air Pressure History
Bottom Line LCD: Time and Date, Memory Data Usage
Note: The presence of the "Alarm-On icon" in the section means that the particular alarm has been enabled.

An added feature of the Weather Station is the readout of all measured and displayed time and
weather data on a PC as well as the ability to upload the data to Internet Web Sites.
Important Operation Notes
All actions and functions of the weather station are started on the touch screen by slightly
touching(not pressing!) the related areas, touch the flashing +, ON/OFF or – to make the
corresponding selection or increase the value.
Every time a programming step is activated by touching a switching area on the Touch Screen a tone will
sound , and the back light is switched on for a few seconds as well.
If no areas are pressed for 30 seconds, the LCD will automatically revert to the normal display mode
(automatic time out).

Important Notes:
On the edge of wind direction sensor, there are four alphabet letter of “N”,”E”,”S”and “W” representing for the
direction of North, East, South and West. Wind direction sensor has to be adjusted so that the directio ns on
the sensor are matching with your real location. Permanent wind direction error will be introduced when the
wind direction sensor is not positioned correctly during installation.
Wind speed sensor wire has to be inserted into the phone jacket on wind direction sensor.
Wind direction sensor wire has to be inserted into the phone jacket located on the thermo-hygro sensor with
marking of “Wind” on top.
The rain sensor wire has to be inserted into the phone jacket located on the thermo-hygro sensor with
marking of “Rain” on top.
System Start
Insert two pieces of LR6(AA size) batteries into the transmitter, the LED located in the middle front case of
transmitter will be turned on for 4 seconds, then it will be off and start to work normally. The transmitter will
make a data transmission and then start radio controlled time reception routine. If time signal can be detected
correctly, then the LED will start to flash 5 times indicating time signal has been found correctly. When time
signal is bad and reception is not possible, the transmitter will terminate radio controlled time reception within
one minute and resume normal mode. When there is a data transmission happened, the LED will be on for
20ms. During radio controlled time reception period, there is no transmission and normal transmission will
only resume after time reception routine is complete. The longest time for radio contr olled time rece ption i s 5
minutes.
After inserting the batteries into the Weather Station, all LCD segments will be turned on for a few seconds,
all possible display segments are turned on for checking.
After this, the weather station will make initial measurement and start to register the transmitter ( the radio
reception icon will be turned on). Before there is outdoor data received, it is not allowed to touch the LCD,
