While receiving, only the
button functions; all other
buttons are deactivated during this time.
As soon as the signal has been received with sufficient
strength, the corresponding data and the radio-tower
symbol will be shown on the display. This process can last
a few minutes.
From now on, the weather station automatically switches
to receiving-mode multiple times each night. During
this process, the displayed time is compared with that
received from the time signal transmitter and, if necessary,
corrected.
If no sufficiently strong signal has been received,
the base station aborts the receiving process after a
few minutes and the radio-tower symbol goes out. The
receiving process is started again at a later point in time.
Main functions of the weather station
Additional functions are described in the full operating
manual.
Weather forecast and weather trend
After start-up, the information can still not be used for
weather forecasting for approximately 12 hours, since the
weather station needs this time to collect and analyse
the weather data. The weather forecast is based on the
collected data and the measured air pressure changes.
The forecast pertains to the region around the weather
station with a radius of approx 30 to 50 km, for a period of
12 to 24 hours. The accuracy of the weather forecast lies
around 75%.
