SETTING UP THE WEATHER STATION :
The weather station will bleep once when batteries are installed or the AC/DC adapter is plugged in.
1. The double digits will flash showing the level of your location above sea level will be seen at the
bottom right hand corner of the display. Press”+/C/F” button (4) or ”-/RCC” button (8) to change
your unit location level above sea level. The sea level units are in meters (1 meter equals
approximately 3.28 feet). Contact your local weather bureau or authorities for more information if
required.
2. Press ”HISTORY” button (5) to confirm location of the unit above sea level.
3. Press ”+/C/F” button (4) or ”-/RCC” button (8) to change the current weather situation of your
location. See figure 3 below for the weather pattern that best resembles your immediate area.
Figure 3
4. Press ”HISTORY” Button (5) to confirm weather pattern.
INTERPRETING THE WEATHER FORECAST SYMBOLS :
1. The weather station requires at least 24 hours to acclimatise to local weather conditions. The
weather station will process and analyse the weather patterns of the past 24 hours in order to
determine the future weather. The predicted weather forecast may not accurately reflect the actual
weather for your immediate area till 24 hours have elapsed.
2. The weather station will display the symbols (see figure 3) to indicate the predicated weather
forecast for the next 12 to 24 hours for an area within a radius of approximately 30-50 km.
Note :
1. The weather forecast is only for re ference and only for domestic use. Do NOT rely on the weathe r
station for a forecast for any serious matter including but not limited to : personal health, any
business or financial decisions, and/or agricultural planning. And certainly NOT for life and death
situations.
2. The weather forecast does not display the current weather. It displays future weather situation.
ADJUSTING THE WEATHER STATION :
1. Press ”HISTORY” button (5) for 3 seconds until a bleep is heard.
2. Press ”+/C/F” button (4) or ”-/RCC” button (8) to select between atmospheric pressure units of
pascal (hPa) to inch of mercury (inHg)
3. Press ”HISTORY” button (5) to confirm.
4. Press ”+/C/F” button (4) or ”-/RC C” button (8) to select between absolute and relative atmospheri c
pressure.
5. Press ”HISTORY” button (5) to confirm.
6. Press ”+/C/F” button (4) or ”-/RCC” button (8) to change your unit location level above sea level.
7. Press ”HISTORY” button (5) to confirm unit location level above sea level.
8. Press ”+/C/F” button (4) or ”-/RCC” button (8) to change the current weather situation for your
location. See figure 3 above for the weather pattern that best resembles your immediate area.
BAROMETER :

The unit takes approximately 24 hours to process and analyse the recorded barometric pressure data.
Prior to 24 hours, the pressure trend and weather forecasts may not reflect actual weather forecast for
your area.
Rising(up) Falling (down)
READING PRESSURE TREND :
Recorded memory of the barometric pressure changes are displayed with 3 arrows to show pressure
trend.
Note : It is only possible to measure the barometric pressure trend properly when the unit remains at
the same altitude location. When moving around at different altitudes within a short period of time, the
air pressure and the barometric pressure will change. The pressure trend will only be correct and
regular if the unit remains at a constant location altitude for 24 hours or more.
TO RECALL RECORDED PRESSURE HISTORY READING :
The barometric pressure reading is recorded in hourly intervals and can be recalled and displayed for
the previous 12 hours. Press ”History” button (5) repeatedly to view pressure recorded for t he past
hours. ”-1 HR” indicates the pressure of the previous hour. The pressure reading history will appear
for 20 seconds before the current pressure reading returns.
TO SYNCHRONISE CLOCK WITH RCC :
1. Where available, the clock will automatically synchronise with the radio control towers at the
following time : 02:03, 03:03, 04:03, 05:03.
2. User may also manually synchronise the clock by following the instructions below.

BATTERIES INSTALLATION :
1. Open battery compartment at the back of the unit by removing the two small screws (RTS2) with a
Philips head screwdriver. (see figure 4)
2. Install / replace with 2 x ”AAA” size batteries in the compartment. It is recommended that only
alkaline batteries are used. Do not use rechargeable batteries.
3. The weather station is capable of receiving up to 3 different channels. Select the channel number
(1,2, or 3) by sliding the ”Channel 123” switch (RTS 5). If you only have 1 remote temperature
sensor, select 1.
4. Press the ”reset” button (RTS 4) once and the red light will flash once.
5. Replace the battery compartment cover at the back of the unit by tightening the two screws (RTS
2).
INSTALLATION
1. Place the remote temperature sensor at a desired place by mounting the unit on a screw (screw
not inlucded) using the hole for hanging (RTS 1). Alternatively, the unit can be placed on a flat
horizontal surface.
2. The unit can be placed indoor or outdoor. The unit is weather-proof. Do not submerge unit in
water. Do not expose unit to water for prolonged periods. Avoid accumulation of water and or
snow on unit. Avoid exposing unit to direct sunlight. Remove unit from the exterior location in
extreme or harsh weather conditions, including but not limited to hurricane, typhoon, and cyclones
seasons. Do not place the unit in area of high winds.
3. Do not place the remote temperature sensor more than 30 meters (96 feet) from the receiving
weather station unit. The remote temperature sensor is more effective if there are no obstructions
and interference between the remote temperature sensor and the weather station. The remote
5
temperature sensor might have to be closer than 30 meters if the weather statioin is not able to
receive signals. This may be due to obstructions and or interference. The user might need to
experiment with various locations to get the best reception.
4. If there is a change in power source in the main unit (i.e from batteries to AC-DC adatper or vice
versa), press ”TX” button (RTS 3) on the remote temperature sensors to reconfigure remote
temperature sensors. See figure 5.
