Installation

Rain Gauge battery install

Note: please note the polarity when inserting/replacing batteries in the unit, failure to do so may
result in permanent damage. Use good quality alkaline batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries.

1) Remove Rain Gauge cove

2) Remove the battery cover

3) Observing the correct polarization insert 2 “AAA” Alkaline
Batteries into the compartment and replace the cover.

Note: when opening the battery cover make sure that the batteries do not spring free from the
contacts since this will cause start and transmisison problem

Indoor receiver battery installs

1) Insert two AA batteries into the indoor receiver. When the base station is powered up, a short beep will
sound and all LCD segments will light up for about 4 seconds before it enters into learning mode to
learn the sensors security code. Every time the remote sensor is powered up (for example after a
change of batteries), a random security code is transmitted and this code must be synchronized with
the base station to receive weather data. Thus if battery change happened on remote sensor side,
then the base station must be power up again to re-learn the transmitter.

2) Do not press any keys for 10 minutes

3) The receiver will start to search time signal. If there is no time signal found within 70s, the unit will turn
off the receiver. If there is time signal received, then the clock will have the radio controlled time icon
flashing indicating that the clock is in the time reception progress. Normally within 10 minutes the clock
should have the correct time displayed.

4) If no time reception is possible, then manually set the time. The clock will try to make radio controlled
time reception every hour. When radio controlled time is received, the radio controlled time icon will be
turned on.

5) If your time zone is not at UTC+1:00, then manually set the time zone so that your clock time will be
updated correctly after radio controlled time is received.

6) If the clock can’t have radio controlled time received after 24 hours, then try to put the clock in a place
near window. The clock should not be placed on metal table or near monitor.

Note for Radio Controlled Time:

The time and date display is based on the signal provided by the highly accurate government operated
atomic clock. The base station will continue to scan for the radio controlled time signal each day at 2:00,
8:00, 14:00 and 20:00 despite it being manually set. If reception has been unsuccessful, then the radio
controlled time icon will not appear but reception will still be attempted continually. If reception has been
successful, the received time and date will overwrite the manually set time and date.

Note:
Please participate in the preservation of the environment by properly disposing of all used-up
batteries and accumulators at designated disposal points. Never dispose of batteries in a fire as
this may cause explosion, risk of fire or leakage of dangerous chemicals and fumes
